Excellent Stay at a Beautiful Hotel

great locationspacious roomseparate loungemissing water
I found the location convenient. It was very close to many restaurants. The room I had was spacious. I especially loved the separate lounge and large bathroom with both a bath and a shower. The view from the room, directly facing the castle, was fine!!!
The hotel lacked bottled water in the room. I feel that this could be a nice touch.
Rooms

My suite included a bedroom, a separate sitting room, and a corridor that led to the bathroom. The bathroom featured a modern design with a large shower and basin, and the water was really hot. The linen was clean and very soft.
Location

The hotel's position is perfect, with the castle and cathedral just a short walk away. The building is lovely, offering very easy access to many historic attractions. It made exploring the area convenient.
Dining

The breakfast room is located in a lovely conservatory. The buffet breakfast was basic but perfectly edible, with continental meats and cheese available early. I found the coffee from the thermos quite satisfactory.

Satisfactory Stay Near the Castle

convenient locationbeautiful dining hallfriendly staffextra feemarketing photosold room
The location is very convenient. It is close to the castle. The dining hall had a beautiful design for breakfast. The staff provided friendly service.
Parking cost an extra fee. It was £10 per night. I thought parking was included, as advertised. The room seemed different from the marketing photos. The room was old and not very clean.
