Overall, a comfortable stay.
Overall the stay was good, very comfortable bed, very little noise inside the hotel, could hear some road noise though, breakfast okay. Only downside this visit was an unpleasant drain smell from bathroom (not noticeable with door closed).

Mixed. No vegan options for breakfast.

Comfortable stay
Very clean room, lovely comfortable bed, helpful staff. Hotel was quiet, some low-level background noise from nearby roads but got a good sleep. Corridors and public areas a bit worn but there is refurbishment ongoing. Good breakfast. Plenty of parking.

Overpriced. Nice staff. Poor rooms & public areas.
Overpriced. Nice staff. Warm and quiet hotel. Very tired and characterless building. Public areas poor. Bathroom was good but bedroom very basic and uninviting. Convenient location for main road access.
