Balmoral Lodge Hotel

Everything went really well once again

The staff were absolutely fantastic. The breakfast was lovely and adequate and very cheap .Parking great and Hotel close to all the shops and amenities. The room and bed were comfortable.Have already booked again for September. 4th time we've stayed here.

Comfortable budget hotel a short walk from the town centre. Free parking, friendly staff and a good value for money breakfast. Stayed here 5 times in 6 years and would stay again.

I stay in hotels a lot and all I ask is a comfy bed, cleanliness and hot water. Balmoral Lodge failed in two of the three! In the family room, the day bed type single bed was surprisingly comfy, but I had to upend and shake the mattress as the bottom sheet was covered in a very fine black powder, like pepper dust. There were cobwebs all over the coving, dirty corners and two of the drawers were broken. The bathroom had the worst attempt at silicon sealant that I have ever seen. Most unforgivable however, was the fact that in our two night stay, the water never got hotter than lukewarm. A bath was impossible and a shower was a gritted teeth experience. The public areas were also very tired, with artexed WALLS and wrinkled lino. Having said that, even a place in need of refreshing can and should be clean and in good repair! It was all such a shame as the bones of the building are beautiful and it could be magnificent! However, it felt like the owners had given up on it entirely

The lady at reception was lovely. And the building inside and out is very dated. But I did expect the rooms to be clean. The room was dirty. Cobwebs everywhere. I personally would not shower in the bathroom as there was no hot water, again dirty. Was supposed to stay two nights ,but we left the next morning. Will not go back.
