Park Central hotel.

Very well priced for the room and breakfast. Breakfast was excellent with good choices and helpful and friendly staff. The room was very comfortable and great shower and facilities in the room such as teas, coffees and a bottle of water, which was a nice touch. Room was warm and fairly quiet - no noise from other guests.

Short kid free break!

Receptionist was a little short on help when arrived, parking information could be more detailed and included on web page as written on hotel notices. The hotel was nice and accomodating, although its a little rough around the edges due to its age.
