Positives: Staff were welcoming and friendly. Beds were comfortable and the room was good value. No frills hotel which was perfect as we just needed somewhere to crash for the night Negatives: There was a slight smell from the bathroom upon arrival. It was a little tricky to navigate to the hotel.

Great location and peaceful

Great location and peaceful. Great to have a restaurant, friendly staff and lovely food. Room did the job. It would be good to have the option of turning radiator off - even when off mine was still very hot, which I didn’t need. The window was open for the duration. The bathroom fan was noisy but ineffective and the towel rail didn’t work.
Pam, 2-night trip

This is a fantastic old palace as a lot of history and I quite like old buildings but the best thing about this hotel is the staff on reception very friendly very helpful.

Lee, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Not bad

Staff very helpful but obviously the place is in the middle of a long renovation. Bed comfy and the site is peaceful at night. Not many sockets for kettle and so on. Room felt half done as bathroom showed signs of age even though bedroom looked newer.
