We stayed in Room 19. It was a very large room and the bed was enormous. The room was immaculately cleanbandtea and coffee facilities were plentiful. Our only problem was that the water was barely warm and our showers weren't very pleasant because of the temperature of the water.

We have stayed before and been very happy. This time we stayed in room 209 at 5.30am we were awoken by the noise of extractor or air con units just outside the window. I would stay again but would stipulate an even number room to avoid this noise.

The hotel is modern and clean, rooms are comfy, we only stayed one night but would have been happy to stay more. We were disappointed with the restaurant, the menu nothing like the on line sample. We would stay again, but would book elsewhere to eat.

Dukes head

The room was small, but reasonably clean. The mattress was awful! The shower head is fixed, but has slight movement (this should have had more movement as it is on a rose coupling), meaning the spray went past the glass screen. Extremely poor quality toilet paper. Breakfast definitely not worth £12.50! Other than that it was ok, just a moderate 3 star hotel.
