I have to say that both myself and my partner thoroughly hated the whole experience from the moment we checked in. The member of staff on reception was friendly and gave us a key and gave us and some very basic instructions how to find the room. However, the instructions were poor and we spent a good 4-5 minutes going... More

Our room was very dated and had a slightly strange smell, but having read the reviews we were expecting that. At £39 for B&B per night it still seemed like a bargain! However the staff are fantastic. Nothing was too much trouble for them, from extra coffee and a better hairdryer than was in the room, to vegetarian sausages at... More

Thank you for this kind review. It is great to see these reviews that understand we are working hard on the renovations.

After a booking mess up by hotel, ended up in very nice room. Hotel facilities good, the Inn at the Grosvenor on site restaurant was excellent..a la carte style, quality food at reasonableish prices...get what you pay for I guess. Entertainment bit of mixed bag, but difficult catering for all tastes. Staff very obliging. Was slightly farther out of town... More

Stayed at the Grosvenor for a surprise birthday party, have to admit rooms very tired. However, at £39 for BB for a room and staff who are lovely, polite, helpful and enthusiastic you would be hard pushed to go wrong. Breakfast was good, everything in the hotel clean. The party was brilliant and best of all the surprise of seeing... More

Don't hesitate to go with one of their on line prices. We paid £39 bb for two!!! What outstanding value. Yes it needs some TLC but show me somewhere at twice or treble this price that doesnt. Excellent staff. Don't be put off by the TV series, go because of it and enjoy!
