Cluny Hill Hotel

We had a very pleasant stay at the Cluny Hill hotel. It is simple and good for the price paid per night. We got a double bed private room with a shared toilet/bathroom to another separate room. Each bedroom also has their own sink which is nice. Towels, clean bed linen and a comfortable memory foam mattress. The Hotel was a public building before and you can tell by the usual British carpets, emergency fire doors etc. Just make sure to click the link for check-in, so that the receptionist knows what time you will arrive. Overall we’d highly recommend!

OK property in process of renovation

This is obviously a budget hotel now. The house itself was once a very grand house and it has a fascinating history for sure. The views are good and our room was basic and clean, as well as warm. The bed in our room (56) had not been put together properly though, so there was a metal ridge down the centre that was raised up too high and should have been placed lower. Our main issue though was that we heard loud voices at around 4am. Men were walking around the corridors of the hotel and talking loudly, They did not sound like residents. The hotel gives travellers a key to their bedroom door but it seems that the main entrance to the hotel is open 24/7. There is a person looking after the hotel but he does not sit at the reception. So it seemed to us that people were able to come into the hotel during the night via the main entrance and wander around. This was for us a pretty unpleasant experience and we did not feel safe. The hotel needs to ensure that the main entrance is lockable and that people feel safe.
