We stayed for one night on our way north. The hotel is clean and comfortable and the breakfast good. The location is on the main A15, opposite a park: there is off-road parking. We had thought from the hotel information that it was within easy walking distance of the city centre, but in fact it was a good 40 minutes... More

Although my room at the Tennyson was somewhat small, there were lots of charming touches in the décor that made me feel at home, including a cheery color-scheme and a comfortable lounge chair as well as a friendly staff. There is also a nice lounge available for relaxing and taking tea outside one’s room and a pleasant dining room for... More

This privately operated B&B was a real surprise. On the edge of the city but within a mile walk of the centre. There are a number of eateries within a 5 minute walk. The room I had was spacious and had all facilities. The bed was good and the shower was hot. Breakfast was the genuine 'full English breakfast'. The... More

Booked this hotel at the 'last minute' and was pleasantly surprised both by the quality of the hotel and its distance from the Christmas market (just over a mile). Plenty of parking, fabulous breakfast and a spacious room. Wifi was available (but we didn't use it) and overall a great find. Will return next year.

Great B&B to chill out and have some quiet 'me' time and be comfortable. Very warm staff, caring and welcoming. Well heated, cosy room. Wireless included. Living room area to chill out in. Close to local high street. Good value.
