I was initially concerned about the noise and people as it is a pub and I was staying with my teenage daughter. But there was no need to worry it was quiet clean, food was lovely staff friendly. Town center. Would stay there again.

Queen Victoria’s view
Staff were very pleasant. Room was adequate but needs updating. Would have liked a blind at the window in the bathroom. There was no mattress protector on the bed. Breakfast was quite nice, included in the price 👍

Lovely place. Just the hallway leading onto our room smelt of stale smoke. I'm sure there's probably regular workmen who use the rooms as digs and probably do smoke in their rooms, no smell once in our own room. Lovely place and would stay again

This Biulding oozes history and charm. While it is clearly a little tired and basic on the accommodation, which is reflected in the price. The breakfast was exceptional and amazing value! (it was inclusive). All of the staff were friendly and welcoming. Chloe stood out in particular, she was very enthusiastic and informative telling us about the history of the building and going that extra mile in customer service and attention to detail. PS pay the extra for the megga breakfast..... it was only £2 more.
