Great location, easy parking, and the tables on the edge of the park are wonderful.
The hotel is made up of two or three converted houses, with all the character that brings. And by UK standards, our room was a palatial size, and the bathroom had been recently renovated with a large walk-in shower.
Everything in the UK has got so expensive and hard for any business to survive, so I'm sure they do what they have to. But for the money by North American standards it was a maybe a four or five star price for a three star experience - not to say it's not clean and the staff pleasant, but for several hundred dollars a night to have a kettle and instant coffee wouldn't be what I'd expect.
The hotels.com website didn't help the experience because I said give me places that included breakfast, and this one though expensive still came up and the reviews on breakfasts were good, so I spent a little more to stay here. However, I didn't check the booking e-mail carefully when it came through, and when I checked in they said 'breakfast was available' and I said I thought 'breakfast was included' but the hotel was absolutely right - it was not included. Then the price turned out to be nearly $40 per person - I don't know what the breakfast was like but it would have to be a spectacular buffet for that kind of money. But the breakfast snafu was certainly not the hotel's fault in any way.
Great quiet location, clean and pleasant.
