Very clean, staff were helpful and well manured. Food was a good standard.
The fire doors slam shut in the hallways resonating into the rooms. Made us jump every time someone went to there room. This went on well into the night and ruined our stay. We would not recommend this place. Which is a shame as this was the only thing letting it down!
Location, staff, excellent breakfast.
Small, stuffy room, poor ventilation during very hot, dry weather. Fan was very inefficient and not fit for purpose.
The bar and restaurant staff were very polite and the breakfast was good.
The bed in the room had a very hard mattress and we woke up with backache. The bathroom fan was also extremely noisy!
The room was at the high end price wise and we did not feel it was good value for money.
We would not have enjoyed staying for more than a night.
great staff, lovely breakfast, enjoyable stay

It was clean and the staff were very helpful.
Breakfast was good and free parking.
It was a bit basic and the rooms were small.
Was expensive for the size of room and the facilities.
Very old and quaint. My single room was tiny but well appointed.
There was a big mirror beside the bed
Great location. Very friendly staff
Friendly staff and lovely breakfast
We were unable to use the shower because it spilled over the shower tray within minutes of switching it on and flooded the bathroom floor. We didn't find this out until the morning after our stay so it was too late to ask to change rooms. The room had a strange damp smell which we realised must be due to the regular flooding. We told the staff on checkout but were just told it was a nornal problem with that room (No 4). No apology or reduction in rate were offered which I think there should have been because we couldn't use the shower.
The room was clean and comfortable.
Bathroom was very good.
It's an old building with a lovely character and nice location l.
We didn't have breakfast but had a lovely evening meal with friends.
nothing to dislike
Whole vibe of the hotel and setting. Restaurant waitress Elena was stood out as charming and efficient.

Lovely clean room, nicely decorated. Beautifully located, good parking, lovely breakfast.
Low beams, my husband is tall.
I think the menu could be improved, the hotel felt very classy but the menu very mediocre.
Breakfast was ample. Full English cooked fresh to order eggs Benedict perfect. Had room 10 which was a tad small but then it is a very old pub. I would go again but ask for bigger room if they have it.there was ample parking very friendly staff and our evening meal was delicious too.
Just room size.
Staff extremely helpful

Een heerlijk historisch oude Inn met veel karakter.
Internet was zwak maar daar heeft het hotel weinig vat op.
Pleasant room and good en-suite. Food of good quality and good value.
Stairs to en-suite may be a problem for older guests.
