It was a charity weekend called Dave day. The hotel were most welcoming and a lovely touch in each room was a wooden spoon with Dave’s face engraved and year he was born / died. Also a small booklet about him and a recipe.
Stayed here for three nights. Great hotel for a short stay, super friendly staff, food is good, modern, clean rooms. No complaints will stay again for future visits.
Well-located hotel that is very convenient for working and also general exploring of the town. Could also be a good base to explore the Lakes. Good modern rooms with all the expected facilities - particularly liked the Chromecast in each room to give the option of watching what we like on the big screen. Only criticism is with the breakfast - sausages are overcooked, fried eggs or other options would be nice - and the coffee was not good at all. Just a jug of filter would be preferable to the machine being used.
From the moment we arrived at the hotel the lovely staff were there to greet us . Absolutely nothing was too much trouble or an inconvenience. The room was large and very comfortable. Spotless bathroom, fluffy towels .
Breakfast was organised with a good choice of things to have .
Would have no qualms at recommending this hotel .
Thank you for looking after us and all the people who came for the event .
Stayed recently for 2 nights (not for the first time) and it was excellent again !!! Great staff, very friendly and nothing was too much trouble. Good bar food and service. My only gripe is need more choice of draught Lagers (San-Miguel on draught would be awesome please !!!!) Overall 10/10 👍
Thank you for a very comfortable stay, with exceptional staff who were very helpful and went out of their way to assist us. The breakfast was free and delicious.
