Great location, near cathedral and castle etc. Totally suited our requirements. Having two reception areas is confusing. Seemed odd having to pay for hotel car parking. Throw away body wash rather than refillables suggests that sustainability is not a consideration.

There should not be an additional charge of £7 each night for car parking. The hotel has a car park for guests which should be free like many others. It should just be first come first served. Apart from that, the hotel was average for the price. The location was fantastic. You pay extra for a good view though lol.
