Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers very comfortable rooms, a prime location in the town center with convenient parking, and features an excellent Italian restaurant. Despite the harsh weather outside, the rooms were warm and inviting, and the recent refurbishment adds a touch of elegance. However, the dining experience, particularly in the conservatory, was a bit cold, and the food options were basic.
The hotel is in a perfect location close to Essex, ideal for exploring the town's bars and restaurants. The rooms were top-notch, featuring excellent finishing touches that added to the cozy atmosphere. While the service was exceptional and accommodating, the traffic noise could be bothersome for light sleepers. The dining experience was described as chaotic yet serving delicious meals. The hotel offers convenient facilities while the hill outside requires caution when leaving.
The hotel was spotless with all the necessary facilities for a lovely stay. The rooms were freshly decorated, clean, and comfortable, providing a great night's sleep followed by a wonderful breakfast experience. Can't fault it in terms of cleanliness and comfort.
