Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Parking is not on-site — The hotel has parking nearby, but it may require a short walk or extra cost – not a dedicated hotel car park.
  • No breakfast included in all stays — Breakfast is available but may need to be booked separately; one review noted they didn't have it this time.
  • Pets not allowed — The hotel does not accept pets, so travellers with animals will need to look elsewhere.
  • Limited room variety for families — The largest room sleeps three (king-size bed), so families of four or more may need multiple rooms.
