The hotel has a great location within easy walking distance of the castle, cathedral and dining and drinking options. There is limited on the road parking - we ended up in the paid lot right across the street. Our room was clean and comfortable with a selection of teas, coffee and a kettle. We both had Full English breakfasts and tea and juice in the morning. Everything was good. We would stay here again.

A real nice property

I really liked both the hotel & my room. The staff was helpful and they offered a nice breakfast in the morning. I am going around England by rail. So I had to walk a long distance to the hotel and worse of all, up “Steep Hill” which was very steep & challenging. But otherwise I really liked & recommend the hotel. You’re real close to the cathedral & the historic part of the city.

Great position for Castle and Cathedral

Deluxe Room lovely but right above Bar/Reception therefore very noisy in evening as obviously a popular place to eat and drink. Also extremely hot in Evening as sun beats in large bay window. Can’t control weather though and it was a heatwave when I was there. Rooms at back much quieter but stuffier as only one window. Comes with the age and character of the building. Beds a bit on soft side but that suits some people :) Would stay here again as can’t fault anything else and these problems either hard to control or just my personal opinion.

駅からは少し距離があって坂もあるのですが徒歩で十分行ける距離です。城や大聖堂にも近く、レストランなどの商業地にも近いので快適でした。ホテルの1階がパブでもあるのでお酒を夜に楽しめますし、English breakfast が朝に出るのでそちらも楽しめました。
