Breakfast included a great choice of food. Runny-yolk fried eggs beat the standard scrambled eggs by miles. Black pudding was soft, tender and tasty!

The breakfast buffet offered many choices and tasted delicious. I especially liked the sausages. They was so good. The location was perfect for accessing the train station (it was close). The room was big enough, and the shower provided ample hot water.

The hotel is undergoing refurbishments.

the room was provided with all that you could need. i came for an awards event and the food was really nice (especially the desserts).

the cashless bar caused a bit of an issue. not everyone wants to use card to pay all the time. also, the rooms are very run down and are in dire need of updating.

the room offered a spacious feel with a very comfortable bed. i found an air filtration device and a portable heater, very useful. a kettle and several tea and coffee packets were present, providing comfort as i settled in. breakfast was included, presenting a buffet with traditional english options and continental choices.

The gym was smaller than my hotel room. I consider the limited equipment less than adequate. i was looking forward to this facility, but its small size was disappointing.
