We really appreciated it.all reviews »
our waffle breakfast was amazing. the room had a lovely view of the back garden and nice big windows that opened for fresh air. I used the jacuzzi 3 x for muscle relief from my conference. the historic building, internally excellent but externally in great need of repair.a little pricey. but a decent deal considering this was done last minute, and considering the other prices i was seeing on other websites. no newspapers sat and sunday. The rooms were painted rather dark colors, and the lighting was a little dim, given the overall darkness of the rooms. the breakfast the 1st day wasn't too good. Plain flat tasting scrambled eggs w/burnt bacon and (instant?) decaf. The next breakfast made up for it tho... The Mansion needs some maintenance upkeep. The window shade was broken, the air was warm in the room and too cool in the bathroom. There was no individual control. All else was good.sevice none existent. offered wrong grade of room, change room still not of correct grade. no bath, shower did not work, no pressure. No towels for 2 hours on arrival, only 1 bath robe. No staff in premises after 7pm at night, emergancy night number for service not answered. 1hr for breakfast, no choice only 1 item. We were the only people in the hotel on the first night. 2 inexperenced staff.
