Very good overall. . Like a lot of hotels, the food is good but overpriced. The location and view of the river from some rooms is fabulous. Staff are friendly and try their best for you. Unfortunately I booked last minute in order to get a peaceful night’s sleep and the fire alarm woke the whole hotel at 3am. Great that it worked, but there was no fire! Water had leaked into the sensors somehow (the weather was windy and wet that night) so after we all trooped out of our rooms in pyjamas and overcoats, we were told that there was no need to panic. Couldn’t be helped but very frustrating! Overall it’s worth the fee I paid via Expedia as I’ve stayed a few times now and would definitely recommend it. Make sure you find the best deal possible!

This hotel is situated in a lovely small town and in my opinion it is the central hub of the area. This hotel had everything and would be perfect for a weekend staycation. The restaurant and bar attached had amazing food, seating and atmosphere. You could spend the entire day on the property enjoying the place and amenities. Our room was small but immaculately decorated. I highly recommend this stay

Stayed overnight for a wedding near by. A lovely welcome from the receptionist. Easy check in and a fantastic room. The room was clean, tidy and well decorated with lots of retro items. A well stocked hamper for those that are tempted with treats. The breakfast was delicious, I tried the full breakfast on a skillet with fresh orange juice and a filter coffee. We would definitely stay here again if we were in the area.

The property was clean, staff friendly and the dining options were very good. Great location right on the river. Room was a good size and clean just slightly too hot - a fan was provided but was then noisy.
