comfortable roomexcellent breakfastfriendly hostsmissing body wash
the room was comfortable. the breakfast room was a delight. the breakfast itself was excellent, i had the pancakes. the hosts were very friendly and helpful. the location was ideal for exploring local attractions. i found everything clean and well-kept.
i noticed the absence of body wash or shampoo in the bathroom. the hotel provided hand soap and lotion in molton brown containers. the actual quality of the soap seemed quite standard. it would have been nice to have those complimentary items.

beautiful stay, exceeding expectations

clean roomcomfortable bedfriendly hostssoap quality
The room was impeccably clean, and it was beautifully decorated. a selection of drinks and some biscuits were in the room upon arrival. the bed was large and comfortable. I had a great night's sleep. the hosts were wonderful and friendly. they ensured all needs were taken care of. the breakfast options were a great choice, cooked fresh to order. Amazing!!!
the bathrooms provided hand soap and lotion in molton brown containers, but the quality was not what i expected. it seemed to be everyday soap decanted into the bottles. there was no complimentary body wash or shampoo. i would have expected this, even in the most basic of hotels.

Really good Hotel with High-Quality Service

calming decorhigh quality producebus departure
The hosts greeted me warmly and displayed obvious pride in the hotel. My room offered ample space, brightness, and calming decor. The bed ensured a restful night's sleep. It was comfortable. Breakfast featured high-quality produce. It was executed perfectly.
I noticed that Eden Sessions buses depart from the opposite side of the road. The departure point is near the printing factory further up from the Premier Inn. Guests attending Eden Sessions events should consider this detail when planning transportation.
