No ales available in bar. Food was good but time taken to cook food was very poor. Breakfast started at 7am but no food came out for over 30 minutes - not acceptable on a business trip. Evening meal took 2 1/2 hours before starter came out. Would be a great hotel / location if not for slowness of kitchen.

Room was good new. I was in one that was quiet had no issues. Only issue was being thrown out the pub at closing time without any warning of last orders or consideration that we were hotel guests. Left to finish our drinks outside
