We got there and it was very welcoming and was upgraded, however the room that we was upgraded to was very dirty, and run down, I can’t imagine what the standard rooms are like. Stains on the bed and pubes in the shower. No shower gel even after we asked. The was soap but it was grime, it is also housing refugees. Which is fine however there was a lot.

4* only if you’re scoring out of 50!!!

Arrived to a beautiful setting. However, room 1 had dirty sheets (blood found on duvet). No towels. 1 worn pillow each. Room badly dated. Moved to a family room. Again, 1 pillow each. Hand towels only. 3rd floor, lift broken. Honestly a poor place to stay. Apart from a comfortable bed this place is awful!

Tired and in need of much TLC

The hotel is in poor condition. My room was 'tired' and the tv didnt work. Phone point broken, damage from previous visitors and black fragments in the cold tap water. Such a shame as it used to be lovely.

After many years of staying at this hotel, what the website fails to tell you and did not know until after we had booked there is no restaurant or bar anymore for reasons that became obvious on arrival. Very disappointing and will not be using again

Former home office hotel

Former asylum seekers hotel, outsourced to the home office. I wish it all the best to get it back on it’s feet. I’m glad i brought my noise cancelling headphones (thin walls) and the bar & restaurant were closed. The shower was good, that was the only positive.
