Basin Park Hotel and Spa

Good, central location. accommodating and friendly staff.

Room needed major overhaul. Just one lamp by one side of the bed. Washbasin in the room seemed from the time of the opening of the hotel in the early 1900. It was the sole basin in the room. You had to have acrobatic skills to make use of the toilet and the shower was the size of a narrow cupboard. All in all, a room like that should not be offered to guests until after renovation. Luckily, my daugther and her husband had a room with a decent bathroom. We were charged the same.

Location was great, and the food on site was very good.

I realize it is an old historic hotel, but it really needs some updating and cleaning. Carpet was nasty and a lot of paint peeling.

Super convenient. Lots of style.

Room had a moldy smell. The set-up for breakfast was awkward. You get food in a room across the hall and then have to sit in the bar. Why not let people sit in the adjacent dining room?
