Pros:

Location is superb. Interior is full of Edwardian grandeur. Loved the parrot. And most importantly, when I was unavoidably held up and didn't arrive until after the chef had gone home, the staff still managed to produce a dinner for me
And ps the food was excellent throughout my two days stay

Cons:

Nothingx

Great stay only let down by room requiring an update.
Pros:

Lovely hotel full of character and in a good location. Staff were so friendly and helpful. The food in the restaurant was lovely and good size portions. The breakfast was very good. Bathroom was modern.

Cons:

The room was a bit tired looking and we had a bar stool as a bedside table. There was only one bedside lamp. The pillows could do with updating.
