Perfekte Lage, schöne geräumige und saubere Zimmer, sehr gutes Frühstück Sehr gemütliches Hotel
Quiet location, but close to restaurants and shops.
Very well positioned.
Old and tired
Breakfast was good, we had the vegan cooked.
Friendly atmosphere, great breakfast
Great location
There appeared to be a shortage of staff which resulted in delays for checking in and breakfast service
Love the calm music playing on the radio! It’s wonderful!!
Food a bit salty overall but presentation is lovely
Staff friendly
In a good location
Peaceful atmosphere, friendly efficient staff, lovely dining room, fantastic breakfast, spotless bedroom and bathroom.
Nothing at all
Location, restaurant food and friendliness of staff
The ramp to the front door didn’t set a very good first impression
heerlijk ontbijt (à la carte)
Very comfortable bed & excellent ensuite with both bath & shower. Helpful, friendly staff. Excellent breakfast. Good parking.
Nothing!
The room was extremely small and had no view. The plug in the bathroom had to be released. The front of House lady was harassed and not overly welcoming. I suffer from a serious stomach upset was there and I suspect it was the food, since I had not did not eat anywhere else.
More welcoming. Better Room. It was our first wedding ammiverday. Clearer indication of extra costs. plus, more concern about my stomach issues, that I suspect were caused by a breakfast poached eggs
Het is een geweldig gebouw!
Great size room. Very comfortable.Really enjoyed additional touches - Fan provided for hot weather/ radio/ water/ drinks/quirky door frames/ huge wardrobes/parking. Bed was really comfortable. Breakfast was very good. We also had an evening meal - again very good. Hotel has 20+ rooms, so felt private and was quiet at night.
nothing
Clean, comfortable, friendly helpful staff. Very good food in the restaurant. Good menu.
All good.
L’hôtel est agréable et bien situé
La dame réceptionniste/gérante ? qui ne dit pas bonjour quand on arrive à l’hôtel pour le check-inn. Par contre, le jeune homme qui accueillait le matin au petit déjeuner était charmant,
The staff and the food are outstanding. I had stayed there before and will stay there again.
Room was fine - no aircon - did not expect it really so night was a little uncomfortable. Other than that room was good and ensuite had everything it needed. Breakfast was ok - not a huge choice on buffet but the cooked breakfast was good. Ideal location for our trip
The extractor fan in ensuite was incredibly noisy. If you needed the light on in the night - it woke the other person up. So so noisy.
The staff were incredibly helpful, kind, efficient and friendly. All of them. They all really tried their best.
3rd floor room incredibly hot tail end of a heatwave. The bedroom window would not stay open; the duty manager found a piece of wood to prop it open. Bathroom window would not open at all. Once the bedroom window was propped open we could enjoy the room and have a good night. So a plea to Maintenance Dept : fix the windows!
Room staff and facilities were excellent. Food in the restaurant exceeded what I was expecting.
Not the hotel fault, but it was extremely hot in room 21. Couldn’t get air through the window and the fan just moved all around.
Beautifully refurbished. Very in keeping with the historical vibe but everything immaculate and clean. Amazing breakfast and great service.
For understandable reasons there was no air con and the old fashioned window did not open that much. Fan provided though.
Gute Lage, super Frühstück, Parkplatz direkt vor dem Hotel
The hotel is very nicely decorated and the bedroom is very comfortable if you are travel with pets.
Size of the room could be bigger
Close to high street, close to where we were dropped off from event. Breakfast was excellent, staff friendly. Room cleaned well .
Windows wouldn’t open, especially in the bathroom. Not a very big room. Only a rain shower.
no AC
Mooi en proper hotel , zeer goed ontbijt
Minpunt is geen airco
Bacon sandwich & eggs florentine very good
Tap for shower in bathroom room 5 very stiff & window needed propping open . We were there for a wedding so I had to ask for a hanger for a long dress to hang outside wardrobe .
Breakfast was lovely.
The parking wasn't sufficient had to park on the street. Rooms are small and very warm.
Beautiful room, good bed, excellent breakfast
Quite noisy, mostly because of groups of other hotel guests late at night. Maybe they could have been asked to keep quiet at late hours?
Lovely hotel and staff. Our bedroom had a great view from the bed out into the countryside. Nice optional online check-in. Didn't have dinner but it looked good. Breakfast was very nice.
Nadda!
Spacious room & bathroom . Staff quick to react when we asked for extra fan and for sofa bed to be made up
Very hot, only 2 out of 5 windows opened a tiny bit.
Location was great. Really good size room.
The bathroom. Very small & no where to put/hang anything.
Nice location and good breakfast
The bed was uncomfortable l, the mattress needed replacing as you could feel the springs!
great parking and the property was lovely and the staff was amazing
nothing
Location was perfect short walk from the town centre. Great breakfast
Hot sunny day and the window in the bath room wouldn’t stay open resulting in no air flow, but it’s the 4th heat wave so can be forgiven
Free parking Suite was a good size Bed comfortable & great shower & bathroom! Loved the big bath!
No air con and no fridge in a suite room? Dinner closed at 8.30? Which was disappointing
A well run and comfortable property in a very good location
Lack of air-conditioning in the bedroom
Clean room and comfortable bed
No air conditioning
Ontbijt goed, diner ook enorm van genoten, mooie propere kamer, een prachtig uitzicht en een eigen parking
Friendly helpful staff. Parking on site. Walking distance to the venue we we attending.
The kettle! Couldn't work out how to use it. Coffee machine was excellent but only had caffeine coffee options.
Bathroom and room nice.
Hot, not connected much to rest of hotel, tight parking
Clean comfortable
Room was v hot but they did provide a fan Also never enough milk for tea and coffee I've stayed here a number of times and it's always the same
Location was good.
Windows were rotten and the curtain linings were ripped and had bits cut out.
All meals were 11 out 10 Great staff
La proximité avec l’hyper centre. Le calme et la beauté de la bâtisse. La qualité du petit déjeuner et la gentillesse du personnel.
Très bel endroit, propre et spacieux. Bon restaurant et bon petit déjeuner.
J' ai tout apprécié.
Close to where we needed to go. Good sized rooms. Excellent food. Clean well appointed rooms.
Nothing.
Clean, modern and friendly staff.
Nothing we don’t like.
It’s lovely and set in a great location it’s very well presented
The rooms where so hot , there was a fan but it did nothing . I know old buildings have issues so just a heads up for those who like air con .
Stanza molto calda viste le temperature di questi giorni e mancanza di un frigo nella camera.
Everything....fantastic breakfast and a lovely room.
Nothing
Staff and food very good.
A bit of a walk to Pantiles.
Good location, friendly welcome and very easy free parking in front of the hotel.
Very difficult to sleep in the room we were given because the mattress and pillows were old, lumpy and uncomfortable and because there was loud and erratic clattering noise throughout the night from a faulty ventilation fan outside the window.
Very impressed by the style of the room. I loved the newly renovated bathrooms and the soaps.
Anno 2026 i really do expect Airconditioning (or at least a window that opens more than 5 centimeters)
Pěkný , čistý hotel. Parkování přímo před hotelem. Dobrá večeře i snídaně.
Excellent location. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Room was decent size, our room was quite cool even in the warm weather.
Toilets near reception were very smelly. Our room had a shower over the bath would have preferred a shower but its personal choice.
The duvet and the pillows are very comfortable. Excellent coffee machine. Renovated bathroom. Big rooms with high ceilings. Very clean.
Nothing
Last minute stay which was very good. Helpful and polite staff. Quality fitments in room and very comfortable stay. Good breakfast. Hassle free and enjoyable.
Lift slow and a bit dated. Other than that, no issues.
Beautiful old building. Lovely breakfast with made to order options. Nice lobby bar/library bar room. Big bath tub, nice toiletries. Large room and large bathroom.
No AC and the building holds on to heat for days. We arrived in a day with a high of 90. The room was warm, with 2 very small windows and a tiny table fan that sounded a lot like a percolator coffee pot. As the evening air cooled the room did not. The next day the temperature cooled to 85 and the day after 75, but the building held on to the hot air. It was much warmer inside than outside. The windows in the bathroom don't open so we couldn't get a cross breeze and the bathroom was particularly stuffy. They have problems with booking seeing how many guests we had on our reservation, so the sofa bed wasn't made up for our daughter and when we went to set it up around 11 there were no supplies in our room. They fixed that right away but it was a little uncomfortable as our family were in our pj's. Aldo they didn't have a record of our daughter at breakfast. They said they get problems with bookings sometimes from booking. These weren't a big deal exactly, and in a different season like winter I might stay there again but not if the highs were above 70.
Staff were excellent and the room was spotless, bed very comfortable. Bathroom and shower very good. Room was on the small side, but excellent for one night. Great location & we would certainly stay there again.
Breakfast was expensive, so we took our own :-)
Suite was very comfortable and spacious
Excellent good and service.
Air con
Perfect for us
Nothing
Very clean
No air conditioning in rooms
This hotel is a 15-20 min walk from the overground station and about a 10 min walk from the town centre, it's in a great location. The room was clean and a reasonable size. The staff were really very helpful and pleasant.
I happened to stay during the second heatwave in the UK this year. Sadly and rather uncomfortably there was no AC in the room. They’re also isn’t a fridge, nor does the Hotel provide slippers or a towing robe. It is worth noting that if there is an event on at the hotel during your stay, it will be very difficult to sleep until that event is over. The music was very, very loud. The hotel did provide a fan which was helpful. All of that to say is before you book - read the fine print! I’m used to those things being automatic but it’s worth noting for future guests that these things are not automatically provided.
A very attractive, well kept hotel with friendly and efficient staff.
The bedrooms and upper floors were unbearably hot and airless. Provision of air conditioning is urgently needed especially in these times of global warming.
There is easy access to the town. Staff are friendly and the attractive building has a useful car park. The coolest spot in the building was in the spacious first floor viewing gallery where you could sit and work.
A fan was provided but in this recent hot weather the room was very hot. A grilled tomato at breakfast was oddly served in a small bowl rather than in a plate!
Victorian building
No garden with grass
Beautiful building. Lovely room. Free parking. Staff spoken to were kind and helpful. Particularly the reception manager on Saturday night/ Sunday morning. Lovely stay location great but not value for money.
So hot. Considering weather and prices of rooms a more substantial fan would have been nicer than the tiny, cheap plastic fans. A turbo fan maybe or a larger pedestal fan nearer the bed. It was an uncomfortable sleep. Bar shut early before 1200 and no 24 HR staff seemed to be available so no cold drinks available on returning. There were some guests in the reception lounge. Only a number to call in an emergency. But this was not available from rooms only the sign in reception.
The hotel staff and sevice was excellent, and we really enjoyed our stay. I have dropped a star, the reason being we were staying at the hotel during the very hot period. The lack of Air Conditioning made the bedroom very hot. there was a fan in the room but all that did was blow the hot air around, even with the windows open. The addition of some form Air Conditioning would greatly improve the bedrooms.
Staff were great, breakfast was excellent, location is very good.
Room was nice and well decorated but a little on the small side. The worst element of the stay was the lack of air con in the room. Whilst I understand the heat and temperatures were extreme and mid heat wave, the temperature in the room was unbearable and very difficult to sleep. I think the hotel needs to invest in some kind of air conditioning, even portable units to cover the summer months.
Incredibly generous staff went above & beyond to ensure our stay was perfect. We arrived several hours before check in and were kindly offered the air conditioned conference room to get ready for a wedding. The team really did all they could. Clean, comfortable room, and a great shower.
We were there in a heatwave and our room was unbearably hot. With climate change, an old Victorian building like this really does need to consider air conditioning.
Lovely hotel, well decorated, clean, good breakfast. Staff were lovely.
It was an oven! Good ac in the bar but in the room the window barely opened and didn't stay open which was awful on the hottest day of the year. We had to fill the bath with cold water and keep hopping into it

N/A
Hotel was beautiful building and staff really helpful.
Visited in very hot weather and unfortunately room extremely hot with only 1 fan.
Very friendly and helpful staff. The hotel is in a very good position.
The temperature in my room was positively dangerous. I was shown other rooms I could use instead, but the temperature there was similarly far too hot. The staff told me that the inadequacies of the hotel in dealing with high temperatures had been pointed out to the hotel owners on several occasions, but they refused to do anything. I managed about 3 hours sleep in the course of the night by wrapping myself in wet towels. In order to avoid potential tragedies, the hotel should be avoided during the summer period until this problem is solved.
Propreté, confort, deco
Le personnel n’était pas à l’écoute des clients
This was a return visit, one of many over the last few years … and the next is booked for 4 weeks time - which speaks for itself.
Lack of air conditioning in the bedroom
Everything, staff really helpful & friendly. Great location and amazing breakfast. Thank you x
Room was very comfortable and clean. The staff were so friendly and helpful.

We attended a presentation evening last week and the se tmeal, although fairly priced did have shortcomings. My starter of a mackerel pate was extremely salty and when I requested some extra bread pieces (only two the size of a 50p coin with a large portion of pate), I was told there was no more! After the first course was served the waiters proceeded to bring napkins to the tables! BLTN. The main courses were fairly good but my wife had extra, where the pastry toppings to the mushroom 'tart', not a tart, had been made separately on sheets of greaseproof paper. We knew this as it had not been removed before plating up! A complaint was made and a quick apology returned. I would have thought that this would have invoked a bit more than that. If we had been on an individual booking, I would have refuse to pay for this but as we had paid in advance , that want going to happen. Not even an offer of a free drink!! The room was comfortable an f there was entertainment proved by a male singer doing covers. I assume he looked good, sounded ok but he was completely in the dark, no stage but no reason why a couple of spotlights could not have been erected. Expensive bar prices on top. This is such an iconic building in the town with comfortable areas in and out, its a pity it falls short.
Comfy bed and good size room. Breakfast was lovely.
No air con or fan
My room had superb views and a comfortable bed. Dinner was excellent as was breakfast. The service was good in the restaurant and bar primarily with young uniformed staff. My recommendation would be for management staff to be uniformed to avoid inappropriate dress and for image. There is no phone in the room. The restaurant set menu for groups can take up to 90 minutes for a three course meal.
Position and style
Many ups and downs with a heavy case to room
Rooms lovely
I would recommend this hotel to anyone. Located a short walking distance to the city centre. The room was lovely and comfortable. The staff were incredibly friendly, and there was a great choice for breakfast.
The only fault I could say was that the bathroom window would not stay open, but that was not a major issue and did not majorly impact on the stay!
Très bon petit déjeuner, chambre agréable et personnel très sympathique et aidant, je recommande vivement ! Merci pour ce séjour
Wasn’t expecting this to be as nice. We had a really good checkin from the Manager. Then my room (took some finding) was superb. I think it had been refurbed. It was super clean. Fantastic bed and a nice seating area. Great tea and coffee pods. We also had a superb breakfast. Seriously, the manager and team at this place are doing a wonderful job.
Nothing.
All the staff where amazing the room was out of this world the food was incredible. The 2 young girls behind the bar was also amazing and the guy on reception was brilliant can't fault this hotel got to be one of the best I have stayed in thank you all for an amazing welcome and stay :). Karl Llynfi coaches coach driver
breakfast
bed was too small
Really lovely staff. The woman on the front desk couldn't have been more welcoming and helpful. It's also a beautiful building, I arrived at dusk and it look lovely with the lights on, all glowing.
The staff were excellent, very attentive, warm welcome when checking in and checking out. Good location to the centre of TW.
Breakfast only served between 8-10am on weekends, would have been nice to have option for room service as well. Thought hotel was a little tired, and room overpriced.
Afternoon tea with a friend, Groupon voucher The afternoon tea was beautiful and sandwiches very fresh Cakes were good especially the rocky choc and the brownie But the scones were amazing and freshly cooked Prosecco was included and we had another glass each at £13.60 Nice atmosphere and nice welcome The team were excellent in looking after us Highly recommend
Open style. Colour scheme Radio in room. Products Ironing board
I found my pillow ‘lumpy’ I feel the scuff marks on the walls could be painted over. Couldn’t shut bathroom window.
