The Lanterns Hotel

Beautiful four poster beds, staff were very helpful and friendly good breakfast

Personal sehr freundlich

Good location and helpful staff. Breakfast was okay but a bit oily. Fair value for the price, though the place feels a bit tired and could do with updating. Unfortunately, the hairdryer in the bathroom and the iron in the room were both not working.

They kindly offered us a choice of two rooms as I asked for a quiet room as we're troubled sleepers, and we were able to pick one of them.

But other than that, not a lot.

Plek is prima, kamer lekker groot met een fantastisch (breed, lang, dik) hemelbed.,
Het eten was heerlijk en het ontbijt prima.

Personnel adorable

Staff fab

Cozy and good vibes. Very very friendly and helpful. Best Curry ever.

Le lieu et le personnel

On arrival it appears that the hotel is closed. When entering the reception area you're met by an overwhelming smell of incense. The reception area is dark and dingy. However, the staff were very friendly and helpful. We were shown to a room that was labelled as "deluxe," however that was a huge overstatement. There were cobwebs on the windows and electrical sockets hanging loosely from the wall. The bath was near collapsing during washing and it leaked water all over the tiles, which we cleaned up ourselves with the towels. When cleaning the water up, the side panel of the bath came apart and revealed rotting wood and mould underneath it. We put it back together again. The bedroom had a damp smell as did the corridor leading down to the bedroom. There was incense mixed into this smell also, as various bits were burning on sills down the corridor, which are possibly burning to mask the smell of mould and damp. The corridor also had random bits of personal equipment that were just left lying around and also shoved into a corner. The dinner that night was really good, could not fault it. Enjoyed the pool table afterwards. We slept fairly well that night, bed was comfortable. Went for breakfast the following morning and I had to spit out glass that was in my poached egg. The lady that had cooked it was apologetic and genuinely mortified. The manager however appeared apathetic. Repeatedly said he doesn't know how it got there and that it has never happened before. Presented with a defensive manner. Made us feel like it was somehow our fault and that we caused this inconvenience. He said to give a call again and that we can have a free night's stay. We will definitely not be doing that as the place is going to cause harm to someone. It has potential but is clearly poorly managed.
