My stay at the hotel was overall satisfactory. The room I stayed in on the second floor of the Garden Wing was a good size, clean, and had coffee making facilities, which was convenient for a good night's rest. However, there was a constant humming noise from a fan or unit below that disrupted our sleep throughout the night.

The room was clean and comfortable, with convenient coffee making facilities. However, the constant noise from the fan below was quite bothersome.

The service at the hotel was a bit of a mix. The staff were professional and spot on with their customer service skills, but there was a long wait during check-in, and we encountered a delay with confirming our breakfast payment.

The location of the hotel suited our needs well for an overnight stay, although there were some safety concerns with a dangerous staircase. It was great for my purposes but had some drawbacks.

Dining

The dining experience was a bit of a letdown. While the food was beautifully prepared and tasty, the portions were small and the prices were high. Additionally, there was a lack of variety and the juice machine was nearly empty.

7.4/10

Staying at this hotel was an interesting experience. The rooms, while a bit shabby, were clean and comfortable. It was nice to stay in a traditional pub rather than a modern tower. The trek to my room was a bit quirky, but it was very hot once inside. The double glazing did a great job of blocking out noise from other bars and traffic, making for a peaceful stay. The service was friendly and helpful, although some contract complaints were heard. The location was perfect for my visit, right on the High Street near the castle. The dining experience was a bit over the top for simple options, but the homemade products were delicious. Overall, a decent value for the money.

The hotel had a mixture of positives and negatives. The decor in the main bar area looked shabby and miserable, but the bedroom was fine and comfortable. Unfortunately, the night was very hot with no air conditioning, and the stairs and landing were neglected and grubby.
