Excellent stay
We enjoyed a family celebration weekend with the staff being very helpful. The meal was well prepared, hot and tasty served by the restaurant staff efficiently. The room was clean and spotless. We had a great stay, thank you staff of The County Hotel.
Leon, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

Room was bigger than last time but in dire need of some refurbishment. Loose floor tiles in the bath room, cracked wall tiles and generally poorly sealed / caulked with some flaking paint, roller blind old and dirty with insects trapped in it. Bed hard as nails, pillows not great / no options. 3 radiators only 1 of which you could control so room was hot without windows open but noisy in town. Walls in corridoors and breakfast room were dirty / not maintained well. £9 a night parking unless you book direct is a bit cheeky and in any case the car park was full on Thursday with 3 cars driving round and round waiting when I got there so you pay up front for parking you are not guaranteed!

stephen, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Highly recommend
Very convenient location for the city, able to park the car with no issues and enjoyed a decent, well-priced drink while we waited to check in. Excellent service from the reception would let us check in slightly early at no extra cost. Room was clean, very comfy bed, powerful shower and a well stocked tea/coffee/refreshments selection. Breakfast was outstanding - fab selection of continental options, buffet or hot food to order at your table. We had the eggs royal, which were delicious and French toast. Very impressed overall, especially as such a reasonable rate for the room. Thanks for a lovely stay.
