Really nice hotel, decor is beautiful yet quirky and unique in its own way, rooms are comfortable, staff very friendly and accommodating. Decent prices for its very central location, parking is just 2 min away on foot, and breakfast options are very affordable. Would definitely recommend.

We popped in for a late breakfast, wow, what a gem of a place! The kids had the pancakes and we had salmon, scrambled eggs and fresh sourdough. The food was delicious and the staff were absolutely wonderful; warm, polite and friendly. They welcome dogs too which is an added bonus. Definitely recommend!

We stopped for 3 nights and were made to feel very welcome.The Tiger has a few quirks but once you get used to them it's great. Lots of steps to the rooms & no lift was the only downside. The food is great.We highly recommend the Chicken&Leek pie😋

I recently stayed at the hotel It was very busy but the lady in lounge was very welcoming. I think her name was Sarah or Sara. Even though she was rushed off her feet she still was so accommodating and full of smiles. …
