My wife's comment was that it couldn't have been any better.
Pros:

I had booked tickets for the Motown night at the cathedral. I had flowers and chocolates ordered to be delivered for the room, to celebrate my wife's 70th birthday.
On checking in the staff were excellent and couldn't be more helpful.
There was also a complete surprise of a bottle of bubblee.
The complete package made my wife so very happy.
Thanks to all at the Queensgate.

Cons:

The weather, but you can't predict that.

Pros:

Room was clean

Cons:

I recently stayed in Room 4, and unfortunately, it was a very poor experience. I booked this stay expecting a restful night, but that was impossible due to several issues:
​Excessive Noise: The sound insulation is practically non-existent. I could hear people walking upstairs throughout the entire night, and the door outside my room seemed to smash shut constantly, making it impossible to sleep.
​Uncomfortable Bed: A hotel’s primary job is providing a good bed, but the one in Room 4 was extremely uncomfortable and offered very little support.
​General Disturbance: Between the heavy foot traffic above and the slamming doors, the environment was loud and restless.
​I chose this hotel for a comfortable stay, but I left feeling exhausted. I would not recommend Room 4 to anyone sensitive to noise, and I hope management looks into the door-closing mechanisms and bed quality.

Not the best
Pros:

Not a lot

Cons:

For some reason, doors banging and crashing ALL NIGHT. Bathroom fan from adjacent room so loud it sounded like my bathroom fan, ALL NIGHT. Uncomfortable bed, wafer thin pillows, horror shower, rotten breakfast which was a massive rip off.

Une option raisonnable à Peterborough.
Pros:

Hotel situé sur une grande avenue, à 10 mn à pied de la cathedrale. Bon breakfast pour pas cher. Et il est possible de garer une voiture.

Cons:

L'établissement a un peu vieilli, mais reste correct.
