An excellent small boutique hotel, superb service and attention from the hotel team
Pros:

Junior suite was very comfortable.
Power sockets were well placed with a proper sized desk for the computer and to work.
Good heating / air conditioning control and easy to use.
The team at the George were attentive & helpful. Being a boutique hotel and smaller is an advantage for the guest.
The quality of the coffee in the restaurant was very good - sampled many times during the visit.
The hotel was well cared for and rooms kept clean to a high standard. The George Bear was a lovely addition.

Cons:

Nothing, would happily return to this very comfortable small hotel by the park.

Every stay at The George is a perfect blend of exceptional hospitality, luxury, and unforgettable ex
Pros:

We've had the pleasure of staying at The George many times, and every visit has exceeded our expectations. From the moment we arrive, we're welcomed by a team that is genuinely warm, professional, and attentive, making every stay feel special.

The rooms are always beautifully presented and immaculate, and the thoughtful gift of "George" the bear is such a lovely touch that adds to the overall experience.

We've also enjoyed both breakfast and dinner in the restaurant, and each meal has been exceptional. The service is consistently outstanding, and the quality of the food is second to none. We simply can't fault any aspect of our stays and wouldn't hesitate to recommend The George to anyone looking for a truly memorable experience.

Cons:

Only that we couldn't stay longer! Honestly nothing....
