Sadly, this property needs air-conditioning
Pros:

Ideally located on Lord Street, the room was nicely decorated albeit very dark- blacks and grays and silver. The staff we superb - helpful, informative and nothing was too much for them. Reception staff including the lady who ironed my husband's shirt when he went to ask for an iron and board, and the waiter at breakfast - all outstanding. The breakfast was very very good too.

Cons:

The room was unbearably hot and the temperature outside was only 23C and this wasn’t helped by the fact the blinds are black. There was a large fan (which unfortunately was very loud so we couldn’t have it on whilst we were sleeping )which wasn’t switched on already and no air-conditioning which unfortunately in summer even in the UK is required. I appreciate the building is an old building, but something needs to be done. And the Venetian blinds need a proper clean. They were extremely dusty and seeing the window wasn’t open when we entered the room it can’t be blamed on dust from outside. This is such a shame as the design of the room is good - could just do with being way brighter.

Good for a stop over
Pros:

Good location, easy walking around the area.

Cons:

Heavy bags and no word that reception is upstairs, the same for rooms it’s all stairs and no lift.

Booked a superior room, no milk, go to ring there’s no phone in the room. No bathrobe as stated.

The toilet was upon the shower.

Wasn’t what I’d say was superior.

Parking a major issue 5 spaces that’s it.

Excellent once again
Pros:

2nd time staying at this lovely hotel. Absolutely no complaints about this place. The rooms are spacious and well furnished including a really good fridge and even had a Dyson fan which was definitely needed as it was very warm. The restaurant and bar area are really nice and comfortable. The staff are really friendly on the bar and especially Claudine on Reception who appears to the most versatile member of staff as she Where's several hats. She is a real asset to that hotel and their sister bar over the road. The breakfast was absolutely gorgeous and plenty of choice plus juices. Will be definitely returning later in the year for another mini break.

Mixed opinions
Pros:

We visited here and we decided to order some drinks. Drinks took a while to arrive. Ordered the cavalry and there was no beef, which was understandable for a Saturday.

We decided to change our order to a steak. I ordered a steak Blu and my other family ordered a steak Pink. We specifically asked for no eggs but they arrived with eggs.

Staff offered mixed vegetables, from the Calvary, which was kind. Steaks were tough however good flavour.

Staff extremely kind and helpful, they were also extremely apologetic.

Overall, good experience, and great staff, the service may have been poorer because it was slightly busy.
