Lovely spot for a Christmas stay
We can out to visit our adult children for Christmas. The Cheshire felt cozy and Christmasy. The staff are wonderful. The hot breakfast was somewhat limited, but delicious. The beds were clean and comfortable. One thing to note, the bed frames stick out further than the mattresses, and are just waiting to crack your shin!
A great stay overall!

Nice hotel, needs better housekeeping
The Hotel is very quaint and on par with Hotel Roanoke for aesthetic purposes; however, the cleanliness was sub par. The bathroom door lock appeared to have been jimmied and left a sharp piece of metal sticking out that bit my thumb as I opened the door- I was concerned the baby would be injured too. The room was spacious enough and the decor was inviting. I loved that each room was named after a British author-we also received a bookmark! I would stay there again, but definitely address housekeeping issues in the beginning instead of at the end- the sink was gross with mold and hair- I couldn’t get water to go down

A Great Place, Mostly
The lobby and halls and most of the room was very clean and the bed very comfortable.
One issue was that two of the lights and the phone were not plugged in and I had to pull out two heavy tables to get to the plugs. It took about a half hour to get the phone charged enough to call the front desk. Also, when I pulled out one of the tables, there was a LOT of dust and fuzzy stuff along the wall behind it. If you are going to make a guest pull out a heavy table, at least clean behind it! Best thing about the place was the staff at the front desk. Very friendly and helpful.

Good choice
The room was fine. Beds comfortable. Bathroom vanity could use a fresh coat of paint. Weekday free breakfast not ready at 6am as posted. The pub is a fantastic place to hang out!
