Pros:

Gute Lage in der Altstadt, gutes Frühstück

Cons:

Beim Abendessen wurde statt gebratenem Fischfilet mit Erbsen und Tartarsauce panierter Fisch und Pommes serviert. Die Reklamation wurde lediglich zur Kenntnis genommen.

Sadly, we would not return as didn’t feel it was value for money
Pros:

We liked the character, and the location. The gardens were very well tended and the bar area was comfortable.

Cons:

There was no hot water in the morning for showering or my husbands shave
The mattress was very old and uncomfortable. The decor was tired and in need of refurb
The curtains/drapes were hanging down where hooks had come off
We were told breakfast was until 9.30am, we went down at 8.30. The hot food was only just luke warm, the cold items i.e yogurt/fruit salad/fruit juice/milk etc were warm as they are not kept chilled…. So it was all very disappointing. It was before 9am as we were leaving but the staff had already started removing breakfast while we were sat there.

We liked the hotel and would definitely stay there again but have breakfast elsewhere.
Pros:

It was very central . Rooms were great and had a lovely view of the river .

Cons:

The breakfast ! It wasn’t the best . It was all self service and the hot food was tried up and hard. In fact it was inedible.
