“It's a thoughtful find, tucked away in a quiet area yet within easy walking distance of the city centre. The rooms, while retaining Victorian charm, feel refreshingly updated, and the provision for in-room breakfast is a considerate touch for those on the move. The convivial atmosphere downstairs, particularly in the beer garden, makes for a truly pleasant stay.”
