    The lift wasn't available and there's a lot of stairs. The room was very warm and the tower fan was too noisy to leave on. The motion sensor for the bathroom light wasn't brilliant and kept turning the light off when I was in the shower. It was good to see the file about the hotel in my room. But it could've done with information about local tourist areas too.

    Location was perfect. Not too far to walk to get to places in the town. The bed was very comfy and the double headed shower was fab. The staff were friendly, polite and attentive. The bar was pleasant and the cocktails were lovely. Breakfast was delicious.

    Great location. Friendly staff, hotel ambience, large modern bathroom, big mugs for tea/ coffee in room, windows could open, lots of electric sockets.

    Can’t think of anything, if I had to nit pick id say it could be better if it was free to park your car.

    It was beautiful, the decor and bar area was stunning.

    There was nothing to really dislike, if I was being really picky, the bed could have had more corner support, but I slept well.

    It was a last minute decision and one of my best, although the limited car park was full, it was easy to park on the road outside. Our room was stated to be small, but was plenty big enough and had more than we needed. We tried the Orchid in house restaurant, it is a mixed Asian style and offers superb food at a good price. We went for a walk and was surprised how close we were to the centre and park. It is a lovely hotel, in a great position and we were very pleased we experienced it, I was really surprised with it being so central, how quiet it was outside, no busy road or shouting, I would highly recommend this great hotel.

    Our room wasn’t made up after our first night’s stay (we were there for 4 nights). A note was pushed under the door to say that as we hadn’t hung out the “make up room” sign, it wasn’t cleaned! We have travelled the world and have never experienced this. We understand the policy in hotels to save the environment and always hang up our towels and ask for the bed not to be changed but housekeeping always visit the room to make the bed, refresh the cups, replenished tea etc. In our experience, the sign is used when you want your room made up at an unusual time or have missed the maid, not for everyday use. If the hotel wants to use this method then it should be made clear on check in. Without this we would have given a higher score

    We didn’t have breakfast The location is superb with even free parking a short walk away. We ate at the Orchid restaurant one evening and had a fabulous meal. We would fully recommend it. The staff were mostly helpful & friendly

    The bed was quite uncomfortable and hard to sleep on wich gave myself and my partner backache.

    Late night check in, accommodating, we booked in at 11pm as we needed to stay somewhere the man on reception was very welcoming and helpful, he was very polite and accomdated to our every need. We didnt expect much with it being late at night and thought we would struggle. There was no problems what so ever booking in. The reception area was greatly decorated with a lovely calm feeling to it and very welcoming. Rooms was lovely and spacious with a great bathroom. Well decorated and had every we needed.

    Stairs a bit awkward with heavy bags, young lass offered to help but bag was probably heavier than her so carried it myself 😁, parking a bit pricey or take your chances on the roadside parking

    Great location, very clean, nice restaurant . Staff very polite and helpful The good far outweighed the bad 👍

    The room was extremely hot, with a ceiling fan but no air conditioning! Also the view out of the room was spoilt by work barriers on the grass in front of the Valley gardens.

    The staff were so friendly, nothing was too much trouble. We also got an upgrade of room which was a lovely surprise. Only downside was I was charged more for original booking!

    This is a very minor thing, but one of the USB ports in the bedroom didn’t work. That is literally my only criticism.

    We didn’t stay for breakfast but would love to try the restaurant next time
