    The room was expensive for what it was.it needed a freshen up. There was a musty smell when you walked in. Room let it down.Won't be staying again.

    Location. Right in the centre of town. On site parking. Quirky pub.

    Our quad room was a little tired. However it was well equipped and comfortable.

    It’s discretion as a quaint bar on Finkle Street yet it’s a thriving hotel at the other end.

    We thought our room was ensuite but our bathroom (which was private) was across the hall and we had a key which was a bit of a nuisance

    Very central location

    Nothing really other than a bit of dust in my room, on the headboard and windowsill.

    The location is great for walking from, especially with a dog, who was very spoilt at breakfast with 2 sausages to herself. I didn't have to share my breakfast for a change.

    Very doggy friendly so if you aren't keen on dogs don't go to Richmond. Dogs get a faster service than humans. Had a Sunday lunch where the carrots and parsnips were rock hard. Quite expensive too for a lunch.

    Great location with parking behind.

    Small car park round the back was tricky to find when first arriving.

    The hotel was very conveniently situated with easy access to the main square. Clean and comfortable room and very friendly and helpful staff. Plenty of choice for breakfast, which was cooked to order.

    Bathroom was in need of updating….. unfortunately the bath was too deep, the stairs were very steep which I know cannot be changed but would have appreciated being told of this….
