Fantastic Room Amenities

During my seven-night stay in 2024, I was so pleased with the amenities in my room. It was spacious, featuring an open wardrobe, a kettle perfect for my tea cravings, free WiFi, and a USB plug point. The adds like blackout curtains allowed for restful sleep. I was thrilled to find out that the hotel offered bathtubs in their rooms, which is a rare treat! The peaceful surroundings really made a difference in my isolation experience.

Amazing Meal Deal

I enjoyed a good meal at the Beefeater next door during my four-night stay in 2024. I highly recommend opting for the breakfast and dinner meal deal; the value is unmatched! The breakfast was a hot buffet with lots of choices, ensuring each morning started off right. I loved the convenience of having excellent dining options just a few steps away.
