Stayed for 3 nights for a business trip, I chose the hotel mainly as I've been to the area a few times, been quite disappointed with others in the area and wanted a hotel that had a good location for things to do after work. The hotel is within walking distance of the main shopping town, lots of restaurants and bars and train station too and it proved to be perfect for me! The immediate surrounding area of the pantiles was lovely with plenty going on if you don't want to stray far but even though it was busy I didn't get disturved by noise from the town below which was an initial worry, it's very convenient! I was on the Fourth floor, which had lots of stairs and as an old building, it had no lift, this was fine for me but definitely worth taking into account when booking as a special request if you have limited mobility! My room was impeccably clean, I've been in the area many times at other hotels and this hotel was the best by a mile! The coffee supplies, water and towels were changed daily and the bathroom was modern with great shower and bath facilities! I only ate in the restaurant once but found the food to be absolutely delicious and fresh, there was a great varied selection and very reasonably priced for a hotel! The check in/check out process was very smooth and all the staff I met were incredibly friendly and accommodating! 10/10 stay, I will be back again and highly recommend!

Lovely, characterful hotel. Stayed in the single room and it was great - had everything needed. It was very hot in the room, but imagine that'll be nice in winter. There are lots of narrow stairs, which makes walking with a suitcase difficult, but the staff member on check-in did offer to carry my luggage to my room. I look forward to staying again.

The property is old with great characters, these days being given a bath is a bonus, the location is excellent, it is within walking distance of everything, there are beautiful shops, cafes, pubs and parks. The parking is not ideal, (due to our ailments, we are not able to walk very far), with the burden of a big suitcase, it was a struggle, to walk across a busy main street to the hotel, however, the staff are most helpful. One important advice, we have overlooked, with the absence of a lift, being on the 5th floor is no laughing matter. Still recommend it for a short break.

I specifically asked for a quiet room. They put me overlooking the main road where endless trucks kept me up all night.

Disappointing
This is my second stay at this hotel (in the same room coincidently). During the night there was a lot of noise sounding like a toilet cistern filling up (not mine) which I could not figure out where it was coming from. I got about 2 hours sleep in total. Checking in experience was not great as they were busy preparing for an evening event. On check out I was checked out by the night porter as it was quite early. I was not asked how the stay was and didn’t feel it could be dealt with even if I did. I would not be put off booking the hotel again, however I would check what room I was going to be out in.
