Beautiful old building, stunning original plasterwork and feature sweeping staircase. B
Pros:

The room was delightful, bright and clean, excellent position at the front of the hotel. Sash windows could be opened with care and wooden blocks provided to hold the big one open safely. Free standing fan was a bonus as it was a very warm weekend and the trouser press was a bonus as we were attending a wedding and my husband's suit trousers were sharp as anything after a quick press. The toiletries were beautiful and save packing a huge wash bag, the tea tray was well stocked with good few and coffee plus lovely biscuits if you feel peckish, glasses and bottled water too, very thoughtful.

Cons:

Unfortunately the radiator in the bathroom was on permanently and we couldn't turn it off, turned it right down but didn't make a difference, add to this the bathroom window couldn't open ( there was a notice clearly explaining this, inviting us to ask staff if we required help) we didn't bring this to staff attention as we were only in the room late evenings and early mornings so we could easily cope. The main mirror was situated right by the bathroom door with no socket near by BUT I appreciate it is a beautiful old building so it will have its limitations. These are more observations not complaints.
