Pros:

It’s a cozy hotel, the stuff was kind and helpful. Beds were ok.

Cons:

I was expecting more from a 4 star hotel. I have booked the room with breakfast. Next time I will have my breakfast somewhere else, if I book this hotel at all. I felt it overpriced. On top they gave us a room for handicapped, which resulted in complications using the bathroom.

Great place - never had any need to approach staff, but they were very welcoming and polite.
Pros:

Room and appointmnets superior, Very quiet, even though facing the road. Spaciouness welcome.

Cons:

We don't want to appear to be complaining as toilet as and other facilities were great. But we do like a bath and not just a shower - however beautiful. I cannot remember the absence of a bath being pointed out at any time. Again, we are not used to having a matress topper. In all, this was, visually speaking, very luxurious bedding, but not the eveyone's taste. The bed was too large and too soft for us, and seems to have been made for very large and also somewhat delicate people - people in want of feathers all around. We are not like this. Also, the British like real real TEA from India or China. One cup each is not enough and so we had to supply our own both the tea we prefer - and sufficient milk. Half a dozen specialist teas are surplus to requirements.

In sum, I think there has been a serious mistake here made by planners and PR people. Accommodation like this is common in some parts of the USA - and increasingly other parts of the world. However, this hotel is in Britain, and much of your cleintelle, if they are like us, do not wish to be treated as an American might expect.
