Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers a mix of delightful rooms with everything you need and a very large bathroom with ample toiletries. The warmth of the room was adjustable, but the road-facing rooms could get noisy due to traffic. The location is cozy and inviting, perfect for relaxation, but some traffic noise may be present. The dining experience, although included in the booking price, was a bit disappointing for breakfast. Overall, a great option for those wanting a convenient stay.
My stay at the hotel was a mixture of positives and negatives. The rooms were clean and tidy, though lacking air conditioning which could be an issue with road noise if windows are open. The hotel itself looked new and well-maintained, but a touch of redecoration wouldn't hurt.
The hotel was a mixed experience with pleasant rooms but a bit on the expensive side at £145. The location was convenient for exploring the area but faced some traffic noise. Dining was a highlight with a lovely village setting, and the facilities were decent.
The hotel offers a mix of experiences - from a luxurious and spacious bathroom with a comfy roll-top bath to a room with a challenging mattress. The location is ideal for exploring the area, but dining times might not suit early risers.
