Historic Charm and Modern Comforts

Absolutely loved staying here. Great spot, easy parking, and friendly helpful staff. The evening dinner was excellent.
Nothing
Eve meal. Fish and chips was massive. Lovely fish
Parking was near but a little remote. Pay and display
Great location & very helpful staff.
For some modest self catering some bowls/plates/etc would be helpful.
Very nice room, staff were excellent
N/a
A hotel stay with great history. Easy walking to the castle and centre. Great little spot.
Lovely atmosphere. Room was beautiful. Bed was huge and comfortable. Shower was amazing
If I'm being really really really picky could do with more hanging hooks (coats/towels etc) but no drama.
Great location within town walls and close to castle.
Room was spacious and very comfortable.
No remote for television which was a very minor problem.
Having to pay 15 pounds for the car park.
Free public parking is available from 5:00 p.m. to 9:00 a.m. right next to the accommodation, before the entrance to the city walls.
Check-in was pleasant and efficient.
The accommodation is clean and nicely decorated, and the room is quite spacious with a comfortable bed. Despite being close to a pub, the place remains quiet.
The restaurant is full of charm and features different areas (bar, terrace, main dining room). The service is friendly and prompt.
Parking from the accommodation is quite small and there is a fee for the day.
The carpeted floors may not be to everyone's liking. Finally, the windows aren't very soundproof, but as the area is calm, this is not an issue.
Very friendly
Large room, four poster bed, fixtures and fittings to suit the style of the room we were in. Lovely.
Adjacent car park (paid for - council owned). Pub and great food on-site
Radiators on in the room, and no adjustments available on each rad to alter temp. Unbearably hot, so we had to open all the windows and go to the reception to have them remotely adjusted at around midnight.
Pillows not good, very hard
Very pleasant & very convenient will return
We had the room right above the reception desk and as this is an old building, noise was a bit of an issue, as was the very narrow stairs up to the room, which made it difficult to bring luggage up. Once in the room, however, it was all that we needed and we had a good stay. Again, our window was near one of the operational units (which was a little noisy thorughout). Nonetheless, the bed was comfortable and we slept well. Breakfast was excellent.
See above.
Great location and atmosphere. Safe parking for the motorbikes.
I was in one of the external buildings on the third floor with no lift. Nice room when I got there though.
We were told to book dinner for 6pm at the latest so a couple that we’re going to be late ate elsewhere then, in the event, we didn’t get served all our meals until 7:45. Good food though.
Really clean hotel room, fairly spacious, few mins from castle, good breakfast and during the day / evening the pub serves food as well. All the staff I interacted with were very friendly.
can't think of anything
great location, friendly staff
