Excellent location for bars, restaurants, castle.
Hotel is a bit dated but for one night we didn’t mind.
Very clean, our mattress a little too soft for my taste. Lovely duvet!
I prefer the shower as opposed to the bath.
Overall I would say that it’s a good hotel for a short stay.
Concierge very efficient and professional.
We had the best night's sleep in a hotel ever here . The staff was very polite and helpful. The hotel itself has a lovely grand entrance. There are some places that looked tired but thats to be expected for a building of its age . It didn't affect our stay in any way. The breakfast options were very good . We will definitely stay again sometime
This hotel has a lot of potential and is good enough for a budget hotel, but unfortunately there a few issues that need to be tackled by the management. Some of the weaker points include the need for noise-proof windows in the bedrooms, a better breakfast and better housekeeping services.
Had a great stay here that started with the warmest welcome ever from Joey and Sarah. Both went above and beyond within 5 minutes of our arrival; we were able to check-in a bit early, and I thought I had left my credit cards at a nearby pub and Sarah was on the phone immediately to help me retrieve them. Room was clean and lovely. Location was great for our stay and will definitely return.
It looked very nice, good idea having early bag drop off. Quick smiling staff and very polite.
I didnt like how far away the room was from friends and being on my own it was scary being right down end of hall at night
Beautiful hotel but needs maintenance. Fold-out bed had multiple slats broken and was not usable. Large breakfast was small and lattes cost extra.

One night stay
One night stay. As advertised 3 star. Arrived early and room was available. Very friendly check in.
Large room. Clean but dated. Comfy bed and pillows. Lots of storage even found items in drawer from previous guests. Echo friendly hotel.
Bathroom old but clean.
Carpets in corridors stained and woodwork needs attention.
Breakfast was help yourself. Needed to ask twice for items to be topped up.
Overall for the price and a 3 star hotel we were pleased and had a lovely one night stay.
Lovely entrance into hotel giving you a feeling of grandeur, the rooms are large and spacious and food is of a good standard. Sadly the view from the room we occupied left alot to be desired, go for a castle view if you can.
