Worth a stay
We had a good stay, despite the awful historical reviews from others. We asked for and received a quiet room. Breakfast buffet was excellent, room very clean and staff very helpful. Yes it.s dated and decor dubious.and room quite hot in October so perhaps a problem in summer. Location perfect for the cathedral.

The staff was great. It was unfortunate in the morning our lights in the room did not turn on so we had to go to the front desk and they checked their breakers. Other than that, cute hotel.

Lovely staff but the hotel is so tired and ready for a refresh. Pealing pain on the skirting boards. Worn out lacquer furniture and oppressively hot bedrooms.

Hotel is convenient for the city, sitting as it does almost in the shadow of the cathedral. Nothing special about the room, but big enough and comfortable, with a comfortable bed, decent TV and a clean bathroom. The breakfast was very good - nice sausages and black pudding! Another guest at my table didn't like the fried eggs - they looked OK to me! Hotels are judged on their breakfasts, certainly by me anyway, and this one was good! Convenient car parking but was an extra cost.

The Hotel room looked very tired, especially the bath, most of the enamel had disappeared off the bath, the furniture was scratched and chipped in places.we did not have a room with a view , but wasn’t bothered, but the hotel looks like it could with a jet wash.The amenities in the room were very good, different teas, coffee, and the toiletries were a nice touch too .The staff were very accommodating and helpful, especially Martin whom I had spoken to the previous day before arrival, he gave me some advice about getting from the train station to the hotel , overall for the cost of what we paid for the room, it was worth it , just really thinks it needs a refurb in the rooms
