A beautiful historic hotel, original but pleased to see the updated interior still top class. All staff were pleasant and helpful. Bar and restaurant were very good. A good nights sleep, warm and comfortable. In a very spacious bedroom suite . Only issue was in our room needs some decorating plus an obvious repair to the ceiling. Would like to return and stay longer.

Here for work training purposes, meeting rooms/rooms & communal areas are scorching hot with little to no air flow nor possibility to open windows. Breakfast staff are amazing though!

Smallest bathroom ever

We stayed for the national beard and moustache competition, no parking available so it cost an extra £16.00 on street. Bed really uncomfortable and the bathroom the smallest I have ever entered, the hotel has great character and the communal areas are kept very well, considering the hotels size. The room was very overpriced. Room 106

This hotel has a fantastic history but has suffered from lack of investment for many years, any repairs seem to be sticky plaster fixes. The staff try their best but are not supported by getting the investment needed to maintain and run this once beautiful building The outside rear is a shambles and the outside front needs a good clean. My experience on the last two visits to this hotel have ended poorly and when you have business to conduct this can affect your productivity levels.

This lovely old hotel is perennially reliable and perfect for walks to the Barbican, the city centre and the Ferry terminal. No need to book a taxi and they are willing to hold one's luggage for the return. The receptionists are wonderful and the bar/lounge very cosy.

Unfortunately our double room was small and only had one bedside table which was very inconvenient. We stay at this hotel regularly but this visit was not so good as previous stays. When I asked if I could have a bedside table put in the answer was no. I ended up using a chair.

One of, if not the worst stay I’ve had in years. We had 2 rooms booked, a family room and a superior double. Firstly the family room was very cramped, and the single mattress has seen much better days and hardly represented a mattress anymore. The room was very dated and worn down, and had a very musky smell. While the superior double room was better, it was in fact much larger than the family room, and made more sense for this to be the family room. However that was unfortunately the only positive of the room. This room again was very worn down, and this one was pretty dirty. The floor clearly hadn’t been mopped or cleaned, the shower was covered in hair, long and short, the towels had black marks on them and the wall was flaking away with clear signs of damp. The shower was terrible, with the water pressure coming and going, and it taking 5 minutes for the temperature to stabilise, both the shower and toilet dripped with the noise being heard through the night too as the door doesn’t close properly and there is a huge gap underneath, and the handle was hanging off. We had multiple key issues, with it regularly deactivating and needing to go to reception to re-program. The tap water also came out cloudy several times. The car park also only has roughly 10-15 spaces, so fills up pretty fast, by the Wednesday evening we arrived, there wasn’t any spaces. Breakfast was not worth the price at all and a very small selection, with none of it being particularly good.
