excellent lobby friendly staff comfortable room
the hotel lobby was excellent.. it had a grand, old victorian feel. the reception staff were also lovely and helpful! the room was newly decorated, nice and neat. i found the staff amazing, especially alan, and the bar staff were super friendly.
i found the musical entertainment in the evening to be not so good. the menu for dinner also seemed to have a limited choice.
