Liked: Lovely hotel in beautiful location right opposite the river Ouse. Good food and very friendly staff. Staff restaurant members Ruth and Niamh were very attentive and nothing seemed too much trouble for them and Tom, who greeted us on our first day was definitely the star of the show, charming and welcoming! Thank you all!
Disliked: No real complaints but just a suggestion. Cleaning staff may want to wipe down chandeliers from cobwebs in bedrooms once in a while.

Liked: Great view of the river from the room. Good size room and bathroom. They had put a fan in the room as it was extremely hot weather. We were able to park onsite. Staff were helpful and happy to refreeze my ice bags which were needed for my bad back. Nothing was too much trouble.
