Went in for buffet breakfast. The service was impeccable, staff are nice and friendly but not overbearing. Although the offerings are basic the food was hot and well cooked. The price is also very good. Would definitely recommend this place.
Perfect location in central Salisbury, just a short walk from the cathedral and restaurants! Staff was super helpful in guiding us including solstice at Stonehenge! Morning breakfast was spot on with excellent coffee! Highly recommend!
Nice enough room. Clean and comfortable. I stayed on the ground floor which was very quiet until my neighbors came home for the night. I could hear everything going on in the bathroom as well as the people walking around above me. Other than that the staff was attentive if not overly friendly. Breakfast staff was wonderful and the food was just adequate. Considering all this, the location is good, reasonably priced , great polish market nearby with interesting food items. I’d stay there again.
