Easy check in and ample free parking. Rooms were clean and spaicous. Seemed a bit dated but clean. Beds could have been more comfortable. A down pad was on top of the mattress to add softness. The pad moved during sleep.

Unique old England architecture. Staff helpful. Sadly we did not receive notice pool was closed until it was too late to change plans. Restaurant is excellent but it’s necessary to climb 2 flights of stairs to get to it. Easy safe walk to nearby pubs and park.

Room was mouldly, hairs throughout bathroom, room smelt very bad, fridge didnt work, hairdryer didnt work correctly, mattress was uncomfortable, outdoor stairs were not gritted and were icy, heater in bathroom didnt work. Breakfast was good tho. Our room was surrounded by residents staying, no parking near room. Very old room not upgraded in anyway. Wont be staying again. Not many good things to report here.

Our room was lovely, spacious and warm which was great in the middle of winter. Staff were lovely and friendly. Parking was a bit of a challenge as the parking wasn't marked and so vehicles were parked awkwardly and we weren't sure where we should park. The hotel is a mix between a hotel and motel - looks like a lovely motel, but lacking bowls, cutlery and microwave that would have made our stay perfect. Also we were only provided two glasses, two mugs, even though three of us were staying. We were impressed with the decor and cleanliness.

I can't recommended this hotel enough. I travelled from Queenstown to visit my mother. The staff went above and beyond to assist. Check-in was extremely welcoming. The room was perfect and worked well for all my comings and goings. I will be visiting a few more times over the coming weeks and without doubt will not look elsewhere for my accommodations. Excellent hotel

A very comfortable stay. Everything was clean and just as we expected. Only thing I would say is the parking was confusing. Hardly anyone booked in and the people that were there seemed to be all crammed into one area. Therefore not a lot of space to park near our room
