Apart from the breakfast and the staff it didn’t live up to the good reviews .
Pros:

Clean room and comfortable bed , good breakfast

Cons:

Run down and in need of some tlc , matching furniture would enhance the rooms .

We were unfortunately kept up till nearly midnight by people in the hotel lobby and outside . Which was a shame as we had been to a funeral and had a long drive to get there .

Great service, great location and great staff.
Pros:

It was a great experience from the moment you arrive at the property. The building is beautiful and the team made you feel welcome from the moment you arrived.

The bar is well stocked and has great views over the countryside with a veranda to sit and watch the sunset.

We were lucky and got an upgrade on our room. The superior room is huge and really comfortable giving you a great space to unwind in.

The evening meal was excellent and again had great service.

Breakfast was simple but tasty and nothing was too much trouble.

Cons:

The room was a bit too hot. There really was nothing else not to like.

Good hotel - friendly
Pros:

Sausages and egg were lovely . They were great with my little girl also .

Cons:

The room was a little noisy as above the terrace so maybe with a toddler that wasn’t ideal .

Homely, warm, comfortable, welcoming and spotlessly clean!
Pros:

The food was gorgeous and the staff were so friendly and helpful. Everything was so clean. I loved the furnishing, very homely and the quirkiness of the bathroom with the round window! The bed was so comfy. Plenty of towels were provided. Lovely supply of hot chocolate,tea and biscuits by the kettle. The breakfast was delicious, lovely bread provided by the toaster. They very kindly gave us rooms next to each other which meant that the elderly lady I was travelling with felt reassured that I was next door to her. It was important as we were travelling to go to a funeral and she was quite upset. The building itself is beautiful and despite its age every room was very warm. Lovely wood fires in the dining room. We were so relieved that there was parking just outside the hotel. The location is beautiful and really quiet. If we travel in this area again, we would definitely stay there again. Thank you so much for a lovely stay.

Cons:

Nothing!

If we had to visit Launceston again we would search for accomodation outside the town.
Pros:

Meals were OK if a little expensive. Service sometimes slow due to limited staff cover.

Cons:

Hotel is very "sad", no investment in basics of room comfort or public areas of the hotel. In room 6 the window was completely rotten and we had to plug the gaps with toilet paper to reduce the wind blowing into the room. It desn't appear that any money is being spent on the upkeep of this hotel and it shows. I'd be surprised if they get repeat customers.

We had a lovely stay and every thing was very pleasant. Food on the premises was a big help.
Pros:

everything

Cons:

The shower was a bit difficult and I ended up with a bit of an overflow on the floor. Main thing being I am too short to bring the shower head down.
