spacious room separate shower great choice small room uncomfortable pillows
the room was lovely and spacious. the bathroom had both a bath and a separate shower. breakfast offered a great choice, including a full english and salmon with scrambled eggs (i found the salmon particularly good).
The room i had felt quite small. the pillows were not comfortable for me. It was fully booked, and i was not able to eat there when i wanted to.

the staff was great from check-in to breakfast service (they really were really good). rooms were quirky and the beds were very comfortable. a great breakfast was available, too.
i found that there was no hot water in the room. i was also told i couldn't visit the restaurant without a dog. (i think there may have been a miscommunication.)

Great stay in a central location
great breakfast handy location friendly staff helpful service
The room was a family room. The breakfast had lots of choice and was excellent. The location was very handy. Staff are very friendly and helpful with requests.
Parking was a bit away in council multistorey, and it was a real hassle getting bags in and out.

Fantastic Stay Right in the Heart of Everything!
great location spacious en suite nice bar
The location was great, right by the quay! I found the room to be a good size, complete with a spacious en suite bathroom. The hotel also has nice restaurant and bar areas (the Sunday roast was great!).
I noticed that the bathrooms could use some updating (but everything was still very clean).
Rooms
9/10
The room featured comfy beds and was clean. The room size was pretty large and very cozy, with enough space for luggage. I was provided with an iron and an ironing board.
Service
10/10
The staff members were amazing, very friendly, and helpful (Derek, Tracy and Craig deserve a special mention!). The service I received in the bar and restaurant was equally excellent. I really felt welcomed during my entire stay.
Dining

The breakfasts were delicious, and they included a good variety of hot options as well as continental choices. I particularly enjoyed the eggs royale. The bar had a great selection of drinks too (I tried the local ale!).
Facilities

The hotel is close to various attractions and the quay, so it is easy to walk around. I parked in the Quay visitors multi-storey car park as suggested, and it was just a short walk away. The hotel also has a quirky, pub-like atmosphere.
