My first time visiting since the renovations. Amazing work they have done. Great atmosphere.
Stayed here for one night, and that was enough. The room was booked and paid in advance online. There was still the need for an additional $50 key deposit, which was explained on booking.
The room we were given first was unmade from the previous people staying in it. Unmade sheets, hairs visable, used towels, ripped carpet & underlay visable. No mirror, poor lighting. No heating except for the extra blankets we requested on booking (mid winter).
After mentioning this to the staff, we are shown to another room, across the hall.
This time the bed was newly made, New towels and the room was in better condition. Good lighting, a mirror, and non ripped blankets.
Still no heating or control for the split system in the room.
The showers weren't in the best of shape, but I've had worse. Drains not draining properly so water was all over the floor with very slippery tiles (not non-slip flooring in a newly renovated bathroom), vents needing cleaning, broken hooks and locks. .. Great hot water though.
Not somewhere is stay again, I've had caravan units cheaper and a better experience.
Staying in a single room so I don't have to share, the room is pretty big but very bare. Room is clean but shelves are dusty. Bathrooms are newly renovated and clean but down the hall from my room. Bathrooms are protected by passcode. No kitchen facilities. Small sink in bedroom. No elevator up to rooms, only stairs. Bar/restaurant downstairs which is usually pretty busy but rooms are still pretty quiet. Overall, good value for money but not ideal for long stays when you might want kitchen facilities or even just a mini fridge to store food overnight.
Has just been renovated. The bistro has an amazing feel to it. The meals are amazing. Prices are reasonable, depending on what you order. Would recommend The Cally for a meal. There is a private function room for anyone requiring a venue for a special occasion.
Food is great and staff is really friendly, I highly recommend eating here or having a drink. However room was really cold with no heating option, as well as lobby. They need to improve this or warn you when booking.
This review is for the bistro only. I have not stayed at the hotel and can not comment. The food was appalling. I ordered grilled fish and what i got was a sloppy wet poached fish with cold steamed tasteless vegetables. It was horribly over priced. Barely ate a bite. My partner ordered roast lamb which was extremely dry and difficult to eat. We got the sense it was left overs. I would strongly advise anyone in the area to eat elsewhere.
The place looks fantastic since the update and is a great place if you need a venue for a function. Friendly and accommodating staff and yummy food.
Meals were very nice. The venue looks great. The venue can be busy and it can get cramped in the meals area over the weekends . Lovely outdoor area and live music on Sundays
The rooms are very basic, only one central light. Few power sockets, ceiling and walls were peeling paint. Bed squeaked so did not sleep well. No heater in the room. Toilets were pretty poor, no soap, 1 out of 3 showers were not working. No plugs for shaving. Food was nice at the bar. Staff were very friendly.
Recently renovated stunning hotel, great food, classy spot with an outdoor eating area including smoking area. Live acts kids colouring corner and small games room. Very nice
