    excellent presentation
    helpful staff
    old furniture

    The presentation of the evening meal was outstanding—truly like something from a five-star place! I was especially impressed by the chef's attention to detail. The staff went above and beyond during our stay, making our experience memorable despite a couple of minor hiccups. I would definitely stay here again, it exceeded my expectations!

    While the atmosphere was warm and the bed comfortable, the room felt dark due to limited lighting. Unfortunately, a personal item went missing during our stay, which left us disappointed and detracted from an otherwise pleasant experience.

    comfortable bed
    convenient location
    helpful staff
    warm room
    limited breakfast

    I had a lovely stay in the Superior King Room. The character of the hotel stands out with heavy doors and creaking floors, giving it a unique charm. The location couldn't be better, just a short walk from the train station, perfect for my travels. The staff were friendly and always ready to help, making the check-in process smooth. I appreciated the complimentary tea and coffee facilities in the room, along with the comfortable bed. On the downside, the room was quite warm, and the fan didn’t work properly, which made it a bit uncomfortable at times. I also noticed the breakfast service was inconsistent. sometimes there weren't enough utensils available. Despite a few hiccups, I found the experience enriching due to the hotel's history and ambiance.

    Charming character, Vintage ambiance, Convenient access to transportation

    The noise from the train station is intolerable at night!!! Air conditioning would significantly improve comfort during hot spells!!! Addressing plumbing issues like insufficient hot water would enhance guest satisfaction!!!

    small seating areas

    I absolutely adored the hotel's charming character and delightful decor. The heavy doors and creaking floors made me feel like I was stepping into a classic film, and the location near the station was just perfect!

    Could use more accessible seating areas.

    easy walks to historical sites and parks nearby for weekend explorers

    I had a lovely stay and appreciated the hotel’s proximity to Peterborough Cathedral, which I reached in less than a 10-minute stroll, and enjoyed a relaxing walk to Cathedral Square, just a bit farther down the road, making my city exploration seamless and satisfying. The room was quite comfortable, perfect for a single traveler like me, although the television didn’t work during my stay but that was a minor hiccup in an otherwise enjoyable experience.
