Immergersi in uno stile Old England. Peccato solo una notte.
Pros:

Ottimo stile inglese , posizione eccellente per girare il centro, parcheggio comodissimo, proprio davanti l’hotel, camere spaziose e silenziose, ottima prima colazione con sufficiente scelta e garbo dello staff nel servizio. Peccato soltanto una notte!

Cons:

Arredi un po’ vintage, ma funzionali. Attenzione alle prese elettriche, non compatibili con quelle italiane.

Pros:

Gute Lage, nur ein paar Minuten zur Kathedrale.
Unser Zimmer zur Straße war etwas laut, man kann nachts kein Fenster offen lassen.

Great Grade 2 listed hotel a stone throw from the center of town
Pros:

Quick and easy check in procedures- Room clean and spacious. Comfy bed and pillows. Quiet room with view over the car park

Cons:

The television in the room was very small. Almost impossible to watch from all the beds. It is understood that space is at a premium. Guests may not be interested in the watching the TV...lucky to have it in such an old building!
