Room was quite noisy through the night, boiler sounds in an adjacent area. Thai food was nice but the portion size could have been bigger. Fish and chips were average.

A practical stay which was ok
Overall the stay was practical and the beds and room was a good size and clean. The Thai restaurant served hot tasty food and with a pleasant service.
The breakfast FOH service was not too friendly, a little grumpy in fact. Overall it was a base for a wedding so fit the bill. I would search the area a little better before staying there again.

We stayed for one night business trip in December.
Parking was good and the thai food was delicious.
My only issues are the service charge they put on top of the bill at payment stage and
My room was really too hot even though the radiator wasnt on .
But overall would stay again

We had lunch before check-in and enjoyed the roast dinner, especially the vegetables and the service. My dessert was forgotten. We checked in and found the room clean but no bedside lamps. The room was very hot, a staffer came up but the windows wouldn't open and there is no heat control in the room, so she brought us two fans. It was quite a long night with the traffic noise, fan noise and the warm room. Would not stay here again.

Last time I stayed here, it wasn't too bad. For a couple reasons this time was worse. There was a machine that runs through the night making all sorts of different sounds. Then in the morning there were doors slamming all the time while I was trying to sleep. Final nail in the coffin was on the last night when the fire alarm went off at 11:30pm...then 1:30am....and then 4:45am... The next morning when we checked out there wasn't an offer of any compensation for the alarm screeching through our last night. Decent location, central to the town and walkable to the train station, but definitely reconsidering coming back.

10/10 for the Staff!!
The property is historic and sprawling but badly in need of some TLC, even just a lick of paint would help. The staff there are amazing, nothing is too much trouble for them and they are friendly and welcoming. Saying that they are rushed off their feet due to understaffing. We ate there on the Friday as a table of 9 and everything was great (although they have a new chef and have changed the menu since we were last there and it wasn't as good - most of the starters were bought in stuff) We ate there again on the Sunday and there was only one guy in the kitchen, our main course was late (a couple arrived, ordered and had eaten their meal and left before ours arrived!) with the accompanying fries arriving after my husband had finished his meal. Lots of things not available on the menu; steak, lamb and fish had run out. Thai Cocktails and Tapas were advertised but had never been available. It was obvious staff were embarrassed to continually explain and apologise but they are being let down by the management who's focus is elsewhere unfortunately. Not sure if I would stay again which is unfortunate as we loved our last stay there 2 years ago. If we did go back it would only be because the staff made the stay so pleasant

A very nice place with good food
Had a great trip. Staff is friendly and food is really good. A few nights the bar across the street was loud but did not bother me.
