We recently stayed in this hotel. The room was small and poorly maintained. The bathroom was extremely difficult to move around in due to its ergonomics. The shower pressure was poor. Also, on checking under the beds to make sure we had not left anything I was met by piles of rubbish, including food waste. The hotel staff were rude... more

We booked this hotel for dinner, bed & breakfast way in advance (August for the December booking) yet when we arrived we were told that instead of our dinner booking in the restaurant they were putting us in the pub!

We had booked this hotel via the Internet for 3 days while we golfed at the Old Course in May, 2006. The Russell is very conveniently located just a short walk (5 minutes) along the sea walk to the course. While the room was small, it was very clean and comfortable. We were in room 16 on the third floor... more

My golf partner and I spent three nights at the Russell last summer during an eight day trip. We arrived about 8:30 AM on our check in day. Though not officially open the staff was kind enough to let us check in early. The room was small but clean and comfortable. It served our needs very well. Our breakfast table... more
