Reviews and Ratings
I had a wonderful stay at this hotel, with its charming rooms and friendly service. The central location was convenient, although the dining options were limited. The facilities added to the overall enjoyment of my stay.
The hotel offers a mix of delights and drawbacks. The rooms boast luxurious amenities like a deep & long bath and a four-poster bed, but some may find the shower feature lacking. The service shines with its dedicated room service and pet amenities, although housekeeping could use a bit more attention. The location is ideal for both city explorers and nature lovers, perfectly situated in the center of an English market town. Dining experiences are elevated by crisp salads, yet the facilities may leave some wanting more.
The hotel is located in a lovely area opposite the market hall, offering a convenient stay with a cozy ambiance and delicious homemade jam during breakfast. The rooms are comfortable with four-poster beds and both shower and bath facilities, however, could benefit from deeper and longer baths. The service is top-notch, particularly room service and pet amenities available, making guests feel truly valued. The dining experience is highlighted by the delightful jam served, although it might lack in variety. The facilities are well-maintained, ensuring a pleasant and relaxing stay.
