Charming Stay Near Beautiful Gardens

full englishfriendly staffcomfortable bedshort walk
The breakfast included a full English option that tasted great. I found the staff friendly and helpful . The room felt cozy, with a very comfortable bed. I particularly appreciated the hotel's proximity to the gardens. They were only a short walk away.
The bar had limited hours, finding a place for a late evening drink required a short trip.
Location

Acceptable Stay with Some Disappointments

convenient locationovercooked burgerhot bathroom
The location was certainly convenient.
I found the room smaller than expected and rather stuffy with pipes behind cupboard doors making the bathroom uncomfortably hot. The chicken burger at dinner was overcooked and the raspberry cheesecake lacked flavor.
