A new Lichfield base

Absolutely perfect for what we wanted. Easy to find, car parking on sight and checked in with the friendly and obliging gentleman on reception even though the room wasn't quite ready. Came back to night manager who was frindly and chatty and helped us to a night cap for the room. Room was great, spacious, clean, comfortable beds although we found the room quite hot. The corridors were cool so maybe the afternoon sun (30oc day) had been on the room all afternoon, I'm not sure. They provided a fan and left it on for us and also offered another fan should we need it. We didn't stop for breakfast but the reception and bar were pleasant and as we passed the breakfast room everyone looked content. Would thoroughly recommend it and should we return to Lichfield, wouldn't hesitate to stop again being so handy for town and in a quiet area. Well done folks

Tired Hotel

Booked last minute but not that it should make any difference. Had to have a dog friendly room so an additional £15 for deep clean fully acceptable until we saw the room 218. Dirty, tired and out dated. Asked to be moved now in room 215 which was marginally better. They said breakfast was £10 each if booked tonight but £13 if booked in the morning which seemed odd. Additionally they wanted to charge for parking which I negotiated not too. Overall very disappointed therefore complained in the morning. Had a call later and given a full refund. Shall not stop here again. Which is a shame as it is ideally situated for access to Lichfield.

Good location for getting into the City centre. Easy, safe parking. Hotel is staffed by really friendly but professional staff. Delays in the bar as the poor lady was also working the reception. Hotel is clean and tidy but very dated. Does need a overhaul as it's looking it age. Outdoor sitting area is very limited and also the smoking area. Not nice. Breakfast room was nice and clean. Good selection of cereals, fruits etc and order taken at the table for hot food. Full English was piping hot and well presented. Very good value for the price.

we booked here last minute as the cottage we had was double booked. Reasonably priced, not dinner available, but breakfast very good and freshly cooked with good choice menu. Room was comfortable. When we checked in there was no internet, but it was fixed later that evening. Car parking was charged, and I missed that when I booked.

Did the job!

Good hotel, did what we needed it to as a base for our weekend in Lichfield. Dog friendly and flexible, plus they were very happy to meet our dog and provided a dog bed, bowl and treats - which was sweet. The hotel is a bit tired - but we needed somewhere in Lichfield with parking and this did that. Worth noting that parking is £5 per night, which I didn't know.

Cathedral Hotel Litchfield

I was told at check in that the heating was broken. Electric oil heaters were in the rooms. The heater was not adequate for the size of the room. No evening meals served this should be more evident on Hotels.com. The building and furniture is old and dated. Large scale refurbishment inside and out required. Mould in the bathroom

A lovely hotel, close to the centre of Lichfield.

We had a lovely stay at the Cathedral Hotel. We were travelling with friends and were in Lichfield to visit a restaurant. The hotel is very well placed for a dhott walk into town. The hotel staff were all lovely; very friendly and really couldn't do enough for us. The room was large, clean and comfortable with a good shower. Whilst we were there, the heating was broken, so we were provided with an electric radiator. This made our room perfectly warm and in fact, none of the hotel felt especially cold. In the evening we went to the bar; it also was lovely and warm considering. There was a good selection of drinks and the beer was good. My only criticism was that, as the hotel dont do food in the evening, it would be good to keep a few snacks in, such as crisps. The breakfast was excellent, really plentiful and hot. All in all, we had a great stay and would stay again.
