Great welcome and check in! We were upgraded to a King which was a lovely surprise. Breakfast was fantastic but busy as expected. Easy parking - you get a voucher code from reception when you check in. Bar had a decent selection and a small variety of snacks also available.

Conveniently-located hotel. Helpful staff. Good-sized twin bedroom with wonderful beds and clean and adequate facilities. Very poor dinner. Draughty dining area owing to direct line to automatic entrance doors.

The breakfast menu was varied and fresh. The croissants were delicious! My husband said the scrambled eggs were too dry, but everything else was perfect! Our room was spacious and commfortable. I loved the firm pillows.
