A Treat of a Stay

From arrival until departure the team at the Talbot I found the team to be warm, professional and attuned. Their service appeared effortlessly seamless. The bedroom was spacious and I had a lovely sleep in my super comfy bed, on gorgeous pillows. Breakfast was generous and tasty. The corridors to the bedroom could do with a refresh but other than that the Talbot Hotel was a treat of a stay!
