Pros:

Great location, clean and nice rooms

Cons:

Very noisy, the windows aren’t double glazed so we were awake all night. If you are going out and drinking then it’s perfect

Cons:

La chambre que je partageais avec mon fils sentait le tabac froid. La propreté était ok mais pas plus. Il n'était pas mentionné que les toilettes étaient partagées sur votre annonce. Pour le prix, c'était inacceptable, et je m'étonne que Booking.com, avec qui je voyage de temps en temps, ait présenté les choses comme ça. Je ne recommencerai plus.

Location

Cons:

Our stay at The Mitre Hotel was extremely disappointing.

The first and biggest issue was the water in the room. There was almost no water pressure, and getting hot water was nearly impossible. When I complained at reception, I was told that a plumber would fix it, and then I was seriously asked whether I had waited 20 minutes for the hot water because the building is supposedly 200 years old. Honestly, that was shocking. Of course I waited — but in what century are we living where guests are expected to wait 20 minutes just to shower in a hotel?

The room itself looked nothing like the photos on Booking.com. Not even close. The bathroom was old, very small, worn out, and unattractive, while the pictures online make everything look modern, clean, and nicely designed. The entire hotel looks completely different in reality.

Another thing that is very misleading is that Booking.com does not show the hallways or staircases at all. There is not a single realistic photo of these areas. The stair railings were sticky and old, the carpets were torn and heavily worn out, and overall the hotel felt neglected and poorly maintained.

The only area that looked somewhat similar to the photos was the small bar and restaurant near the entrance. However, even there, it felt like the online pictures had been heavily edited with filters to make everything appear newer and more attractive than it actually is. In reality, everything is old and far from what is advertised online.

What made the experience even worse was the attitude of the staff. My husband injured his leg and could barely walk for three days, so leaving the hotel earlier on the check-out day was extremely difficult for him. I politely asked if we could have a late check-out for just an hour or two because our flight was late in the evening. They agreed, but we still had to pay extra for it.

Budjettivalinta
Pros:

Sijainti on hyvä. Mukavaa henkilökuntaa töissä. Siivoojaa ei toki näkynyt yöpymisten välissä vaikka näin oli tarkoitettu.

Cons:

Suihku tulee huonolla paineella jääkylmänä tai tulikuumana. Vessanpöntölle ei mahdu istumaan sillä pönttö poikittain kiinni seinässä. Myöskin äänieristys hieman heikko

Weekend at the Mitre.
Pros:

Location was good. Staff friendly and very helpful.

seful base for Ethiad visit.

Cons:

Shower was underpowered and difficult to obtain a comfortable temperature. Rather expensive but understandable for a city centre hotel at weekend.

Pleasant, but value-for-money was slightly lacking.
Pros:

Great, central location.

Very clean and nice-smelling room.

The room had a smart TV.

Cons:

Bed was so narrow, I felt like I was going to fall off.

For the price, the room felt very claustrophobic.

Disappointed that I wasn’t allowed to pay for a late checkout. Maybe they could be more upfront about that.
