"We stayed for two nights and unfortunately had to swap rooms due to other guests being a little inconsiderate. First room was very basic but okay for just having somewhere to sleep. The second room was definitely an upgrade, quieter park of the hotel, more space in the room and choices on TV was better. Staff were amazing though out and nothing was too much trouble. Would happily stay here again (on the quieter side) and recommend to family and friends"

10/10 Excellent
"I had a "newer" room at the back of the hotel overlooking my favourite pub, the Beau Nash Tavern. The room was comfortable, clean, quiet, and well-appointed. As a new room it was shoe-horned into the existing property so getting to my room was pretty funny as the path from the front desk to it was convoluted in an entertaining sort of way (people enjoyed the video on my Instagram!). I had dinner and breakfast in the dining room, both were excellent too. The staff were all friendly and helpful. I would stay here again."
