The hotel was lovely and going back to that Victorian bygone era was a wonderful experience. It was sad that on pur first night the fire alarm went off at 2:30 am and we had to venture out into very cold weather we were there in July. A disappointment was that we weren't informed that to compensate for the trouble the hotel coffered free breakfast to the guests affected. We only found out because we decided to have breakfast at the hotel after our second night check out when they told us the breakfast was on the house due to the inconvenience. Had we not decided to have breakfast at the hotel that morning we wouldn't have been the wiser.

Wonderful stay at the Carrington.

Wonderful stay at Carrington Hotel, regrettable only for 1 night. A special treat for myself and granddaughter. I came in late 1990's and it was almost derelict - wonderful to see it restored to it's former glory. Everything was perfect, ambience of public areas also made it memorable. Highly recommend a stay here, you won't regret it.
