Wonky television

Friendly Staff.. television powered on a wonky wall setting difficult to use and view . Once again we were faced with a £12 parking charge which is a sneaky way of upping the room rate. However, we have a disabled badge and we’re able to park in the street. Good breakfast, we will stay again when on business in Yorkshire.

Beautiful old hotel & well maintained. The staff was very helpful- front desk excellent , restaurant excellent, pub excellent. The location is fantastic and a quick walk to some great restaurants and the Turkish baths. We also walked to the city park and to Harlow car Gardens from the hotel.

Good value

We did feel that we were at the back of beyond with our room. A long way to walk to. But it was a good standard for the money we paid. But we do like the hotel and breakfast was lovely.

Happy with most of my stay except the old heating system that made a banging sound every 5 minutes when the heating was going off at night then again at 6 am disturbing my sleep. Being able to leave luggage on arrival and departure was excellent. The food in the restaurant was very good.

Would stay again, lovely, but needs work

This hotel is beautiful inside and out, and takes you back to a much simpler time, while still being modern, to a point. The corridors (at least on the second floor) have multiple steps up and down, so no room on that floor can be reached by those less able to walk. Our room was roasting hot, because while the radiators were off, the heating system was on, and none of the pipes can be insulated as we could feel the heat coming through the trunking in the room. Our little dog was made to feel really welcome, the bar staff gave her fuss and treats, and there was a cute mat in the bathroom for her to eat on, with a water bowl. My main gripes: 1) for any dog waste the nearest bin is a 5min walk away in Crescent Gardens. I really think the hotel could add one if they're happy for dogs to stay. 2) The fire exit route map on our door was wrong, and needs to be updated as a corridor to a stairwell is now a room.

A really lovely, large traditional hotel. All the communal areas such as the bar and dining room are beautifully decorated with historical details. Room was spacious and comfortable. Good quality breakfast buffet was included. Staff attentive, professional yet friendly. An easy walk to shops and restaurants but tucked away up a quiet street on the edge of the town centre. Overall very impressed. Hope to return.

This is a yester-year classic hotel - sort of from the 1920- 30s when Agatha Christie stayed there. The best thing is the location, frontage and breakfast buffet in a large classical dining room. Don't have dinner in that dining room. The young women were sweet but need training and the food and wine was disappointing and overpriced. They should convert the library or library lounge into a small dining room. The bar was too large and cool to use. The entire place needs an update, like the White Hart and the Fat Badger. ... Nevertheless, a graet place to have a company away day or a small conference.

Great location lovely hotel.However the room I was given had no opening windows and for me for a 9 night stay was unbearable! (I have to have fresh air when I sleep!)But thank you to the delightful Peter , the porter could see I wasn’t happy and without me even aware had sorted another room for me 😊. I was so grateful. He was so helpful and incredibly kind.
