Amazing location and super helpful and friendly staff. TV only had 9 usual channels, but, we weren't in the room enough to watch TV. The rooms are fantastic and the beds are really comfortable, a diem side is the noise from adjacent rooms when they use their taps and shower. Breakfast is amazing and you really couldn't ask for a nicer place to have a drink and evening meal. I woukd give it 8.5 or 9 out of 10,it was everything you could ad for, just a shame about the tv and water noise

Lovely location, nice room. Lots of plusses. Shower great, bed huge, sympathetically decorated to fit the riverside location. Food great and reasonably priced. A couple of adjustments would have made me give 5 stars. TV not connected to Internet, limited choice of channels and unable to plug in fire stick etc. Room very warm, a better fan would have helped this considerably. Some of the menus were quite sticky, Staff were clearly cleaning tables but a tiny bit more attention to detail would be useful. Still had a great stay and would definitely return.
