This hotel is all about the location, the significance of the building and the friendliness of the people. You are literally in the gate of the Cathedral, our room looked out on it. The building has been a hotel or pilgrim hostel since records were kept. The room is obviously dated and they have mostly done what they could to keep it up to standard. But the staff were so friendly and welcoming. Lovely breakfast. Parking is paid at the hotel, just park at the cathedral lot and you get the hotel rate sorted at the hotel.

Stayed 3 nights

The staff were very friendly and helpful. The 'free' breakfast was good (especially the fresh fruit salad) but limited in choice. The building, which is very close to the cathedral, dates from the 16th century and was quirky and interesting due to this. We paid over £200 per night for our 3-night stay and felt that this was much too much for what we got. The room was quiet and a reasonable size but the bathroom was tiny and there were signs of mould between the tiles and sealant. The finish of the bathroom was poor. On the plus side the fan provided was very effective and, as mentioned before, the staff were excellent.
