Love the hotel and great location , stayed on numerous occasions , will return again
Pros:

Our visit was great, the only exception was the speaker outside our room was loud and we could hear the loud music through the closed windows of room 6. Our stay was for 2 nights and the 2nd night was great as the music wasn’t playing,

Cons:

The loud noise coming from the outside of the hotel

Poor food..lovely decor
Pros:

I would firstly like to say the decor in the restaurant has been renovated to a high standard and makes you feel very cosy. The food however did not meet my expectations. I booked online for an afternoon sitting as a Birthday treat for myself and my Daughter. Having gone on reviews I was looking forward to an edible and satisfying meal. I was hesitant to try the Carvery on a Monday knowing Sunday would have been the best time to try it from fresh. I wanted to serve myself but was told the chef was happy to do this, unfortunately the vegetables were slightly soggy and the meat was at the end of the joint so slightly dry. The Pizza I feel was far worse very stodgy and cheaply made. Because it was a celebration I did not want to cause a scene but I was very disappointed with the meal and no acknowledgement that i was celebrating.
I therefore would give this a low score food wise.

Pros:

Free upgrade to a bigger better room. Very pleasant helpful staff

Cons:

Being in our 70s found it a bit of a trek having to go up several flights of stairs to our room but because it was a free upgrade and a listed building preventing them from installing a lift we accepted that

I only spent the one night at The Bold but I found it a very friendly and comfortable stay. I would highly recommend any
Pros:

The staff were all very friendly and helpful. In the restaurant they offered a good variety of food which was of high quality.

Cons:

Limited car parking and having to pay £5 for parking for one night. It pays to upgrade your room as my room was a bit small.
