The Orwell Hotel

Quiet, good amenities near by

nothing was great

Breakfast room is small. Staff were nice and friendly.

Fantastic stay at this beautiful hotel which is being revamped currently. Entrance, reception, library, bar, restaurant all beautiful and cosy. Staff were exceptional and attentive, especially in the restaurant, cleaners were very jolly too. The food was delicious and we ate there 4 nights out of 5 because it was so good. Our room was slightly dated but very comfy, clean beds. No complaints! Even had a bath which was a luxury and old fashioned double sink 🤗. Definitely going back at such a bargain price.

Nothing!

The location & parking

The room had two badly cracked windows . The sash windows were both broken, solidly jammed & unable to be open or closed at will . The hot tap knob was unattached & came away in your hand when using the shower .There was no grab handle in the shower & made it extremely dangerous whenever getting in or out of the shower . The shower head was unadjustable & shot out at all angles rather than over your body . The hot tap in the sink was fitted so that you had to turn it clockwise to turn it on , which is against the norm . The door to the room internally was covered in old stickers & bits of old tape . When I told the concierge about the dangerous windows he came & confirmed they were & said they would be fixed . One was laughably repaired but the other not at all .
