Wonderful Experience!
hot breakfast fresh towels crisp sheets sound sleep
I enjoyed a breakfast with good fruit, cereal, and a hot English breakfast. Tea, coffee, and toast were served to my table each morning! Fresh towels looked daily during my short visit. The bed sheets felt crisp and were very white. I slept soundly.
I noticed that the hotel is indeed a beautiful building, though some areas appear very tired inside, a slight shame.
