A very traditional old hotel in an excellent central position. Good for shops, theatre and railway station. Nice and clean with a large room and updated bathroom. Breakfast was a let down, cold and Unappealing.

Rooms are very dated. We paid for a delux but it was tiny, old and dated. My husband who is only 6.1 could not stand under the shower as it wasnt high enough. They also made a mistake and tried to charge up for breakfast,we had to find our original booking which yook a while by which time ourwe had to leave so we couldnt have breakfast. They wouldnt refund and when we tried ti claim back through the people we booked with the hotel told them we'd refused breskfast which wasnt true

Very nice hotel

The hotel is well located right in the centre of Peterborough with plenty of onsite parking which is a bonus. Our only criticism would be directed towards the check-in on our arrival. The chap on reception seemed disinterested and bored as his body language showed. We didn't use the bar or the restaurant so we can't comment on these although the decor is very welcoming throughout the hotel and it's a lovely place to stay.

Only one VERY important improvement could have tipped our stay into 5*, and that is IF THE WEBSIT HAD THE POSTCODE for the CAR PRK, which is NOT the same as the post code listed in the hotel address, and that would have saved us 45 min of driving stress, asking people, going down local roads, seeing the Catgedral, knowing we weee close but, oh so far. Eventually I persuaded my friend to phone tge hotel- receptionist said ‘you need another postcode’!!! On arrival, another receptionist said they get hundreds of phone calls a month regarding this! So, just update the website please. Food- dinner, breakfast lovely, room great- comfortable, super beds, spotless, only shower problemstic. Couldn’t get it to work.water temp ✔️, was able to sponge myself down, but did not want to risk having a bath- mobility issues.TV good reception. All staff friendly and helpful. And, could leave car in car park when we went to the cathedral to visit ‘The Longest Tarn wxhibition- a short walk from hotel. Rwcconend the exhibition, on March 2025, recommend the hotel

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
Hotel was clean, staff friendly, and was close to the city centre. Breakfast was average, a good selection but as it was buffet style its hit and miss. Room was spacious, shower had good pressure but the shower door was not the best and the water was spraying out on the bathroom floor. Bed was a good size but the mattress was quite hard and the pillows were not the softest too. Overall we were impressed with the hotel and would definitely stay again.
