Will stay there again as overall hard to beat for comfort and price
Pros:

Perfect location near to where I was playing in a tennis tournament and 5 minutes walk from the centre. Excellent breakfast and well priced. The staff very helpful in getting car parked when garage full.

Cons:

Nothing of note apart from one domestic row opposite our room which woke my wife up. It was Room 221 if the hotel wants to take it further.

Pros:

Hotel was lovely and clean, and the staff were very accommodating. We didn't have a dinner reservation as part of our stay but they still ensured we had a table and we were able to enjoy our meal. The breakfast was lovely and fresh, with an excellent choice. The night we arrived the car park was full so the team ensured we still have somewhere safe to park during our stay. The hotel room itself was also lovely and warm when we arrived which was a lovely bonus, as have stayed in accommodation before where this is not the case.

Cons:

One downside would be the car park is a bit on the small side and not enough parking for all guests, we arrived late in the evening and the car park was already completely full.

As above
Pros:

At almost £100 per night I would have thought that a bottle of water per person and coffee sachets / biscuits on a daily basis would be the minimum

Cons:

Poor room service
