"Really pleased we found this hotel, which is situated near the station and town centre. Each staff member we spoke to was friendly and helpful. Room was a good size for a short stay, clean and tidy. Good bathroom and comfortable bed. Good choices for breakfast which was served in our room and was very good - we both had omelettes, toast, muesli, coffee and fruit juice. This hotel would be our first choice the next time we go to Peterborough."
