The hotel is a little tired but the rooms are large and well equipped. I chose an executive double room on my last overnight stay, and was very impressed with the difference from a standard double for not much extra cost.

Lovely room, lovely staff, great value. The room looked recently refurbished and was super clean and comfortable. Staff were friendly and effective. Public areas gorgeous. Honestly, I think they should probably put their prices up!

The room was clean but looked tired. Had a nice feel about the place. Found the staff very friendly and helpful. The shops are all nearby. The only downside was the lift was not working.

The room was OK. The bed was not too comfortable. We had what we needed and for the price it was acceptable. Things could be improved. For example there was nothing to save a slip in the shower. No handles or mat. No toilet brush. No cup in the bathroom and no mirror. The same guy was serving at the bar, doing check in and organising breakfast. He was very pleasant and helpful. The hotel entrance was charming and the lounge seemed very cosy. Breakfast was very basic, at least there were some pastries, otherwise it would have been very boring. All in all it was fine for the price

Hotel is just starting to come back to life after being used as an emergency accommodation facility. Minimal staff but they were so helpful and friendly. Awful smell in the reception and bar area, suspect carpet needs a professional clean….and the vacuum cleaner they’re using needs changing as it’s pumping put stinky air. Shame, as the OPL was a truly prestigious hotel once, beautiful building, I really truly hope she can recover and get her former glory and reputation back.

I didn't check my sons room 312 but My Room 306 was not cleaned properly the arm chair cushion was disgustingly dirty ! The cushion was fitted upside down to disguise how dirty it was ! When I lifted it A half smoked spliff was under the cushion ! Bathroom was poor broken bath, broken tiles, broken dirty floor shower hose clip loose and parts missing very disappointed as the photos showed clean rooms that why I booked it felt cheated once I got there
Cushion fitted upside down to cover up how dirty and disgusting the front cover was

I believe that the hotel should put some padding stickers on the door frames so the doors don’t bang when closing them.
