    excellent breakfast

    Perfect for a quick escape

    The staff were helpful. Like, they made parking a breeze, no hassle at all! The breakfast was great. I had the full English, and let me tell you, it hit the spot.

    It wasn't exactly a bargain, but with the experience I had, it felt fair enough.

    charming building
    friendly staff
    cozy bar area
    overcooked steaks

    Great location and vibe!

    Really loved the spot! The building has a nice charm, and the staff were super friendly. But man, getting hit with £20 for parking when you're already paying £250 a night kinda stings. Ate at the restaurant, but they seriously overcooked our steaks and the sides were cold. Not what we expected! Still, had a cozy bar area.

    A Memorable Anniversary Celebration

    We had an amazing anniversary dinner on the evening of September 22nd at Marco Pierre White's restaurant. The friendly staff made us feel welcome, and Julie, the night maid, was especially delightful. Her warm personality and knowledge of the hotel were a highlight of our stay. Highly recommend the cocktails at the bar!

    birthday surprise

    relaxing spa
    poor room lighting

    We celebrated my girlfriend's birthday here, and the hotel surprised us with festive decorations for our dinner, making the night special. There’s a stunning rooftop view and a relaxing spa that really helped us unwind. The room lighting could be better, but it didn't take away from our awesome experience overall. 🥰

    limited pool area

    We had such an amazing time exploring the nearby arts center! The comfy room provided us with great space, and my brother and I enjoyed the delicious breakfast every morning. The hotel staff was attentive, making it a memorable family stay.

    stunning architecture
    delicious breakfast
    small initial room
    dark room
    room transition process

    The stunning architecture caught my eye, especially the preserved historic features. The room was spacious and quiet, allowing for a restful night's sleep. The breakfast was ample and delicious, showcasing homemade items like pies that added a nice touch. I initially received a smaller room which felt dark, and the transition process could have been smoother.

    Spent a delightful night with my family exploring the local area. The restaurant offered an exquisite dining experience, especially the breakfast. A small setback occurred at check-in, which could be improved, but overall, the stay was memorable. Don’t miss the charming staff!
