Staff were friendly and welcoming. We had asked if all 4 rooms could be ready before 3 as we had an event to attend, and were told they would try to get at least 1 done. As it turns out all 4 were ready which was great. Room were comfy with good amenities

2/10 Poor

Old hotel. Limited breakfast. Bad coffee. Deceptive food pictures in the web site.
Fulya, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

After reading the reviews I was a little surprised, the hotel has a dated feel about it and although the breakfast was free, a new thermos of coffee arrived and it was cold. Certainly would not pay that amount again, Nearby parking that was recommended as secure wa £22.50 for less than 24 hours!

Stephen, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

The room was clean but very dated, staff were friendly, breakfast was not very warm as we stayed there 6 night's it would have been nice to have had at least 1or 2 hot ones. The car park was none existent as you were not allowed to park unless you were disabled so it cost us for 6 days in the BIC car park which came to £135.00 .
Audrey, 6-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Short Break at Very Central Hot

A very comfortable small room but adequate. Very nice breakfast and staff are truly amazing. Excellent location and neighbouring eateries. Major drawback is parking adjacent car park poorly maintained and not secure but very cheap £7 for 24 hours. BiC £22.50 for same period.
Albert, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good
