    This boutique hotel stands out for its lovely design. The breakfast offers lots of cereals and pastries. The location is central, close to the centre of town as well as railway station. It is an easy walk to Sofra, where you can have lunch.

    Cozy ambiance with charming character

    The lively bar atmosphere and great dining options added to the experience, with a lovely beer garden for relaxation. The shower's temperature control was a bit troublesome and could use some improvement.

    comfortable bed
    great location
    complimentary snacks

    The room was decent-sized with oak beams and a comfortable bed. The self-controlled heating/air con was perfect for our needs. The location is super close to the town and beautiful river walk. The complimentary breakfast cereal bars were a nice touch too!

    the extractor fan in the bathroom was broken.

    cleanliness issues

    Riverside setting, quaint pub style, unique historical experience

    The noise disturbances from creaky floors and thin walls were quite bothersome!!! The questionable cleanliness standards in common areas left much to be desired.

    spacious bar

    The bedroom was a good size and the bed was super comfy. The bathroom was clean with a nice shower. Loved the bar area, really spacious with lots of seating and a chill vibe. The evening meals were awesome with loads of choices and not too pricey. Location was perfect, only a short walk to shopping areas!

    Consider prepaying for parking nearby as it simplifies late-night payments. check local car parks for overnight options.

    cozy room
    comfy bed
    shabby paintwork

    The room was cozy, with a comfy bed and a big TV, which made it perfect for winding down. I loved the outdoor space to relax and enjoy a drink. The bar was a nice touch. Just a heads up, the paintwork could use some love, but it didn’t ruin our time at all! 👍

    tasty meals
    lively pub

    Had an awesome getaway with friends! The room was cozy and clean. We loved the lively vibe of the pub. We caught some sports action on TV and enjoyed tasty meals too. Just a heads up, we heard some noise from the upstairs rooms, but it didn't bother us much. Definitely a fun spot to relax!
