The Downe Arms

Loved the Indian restaurant within the pub, food was so flavourful best curry I’ve tasted, the rooms are in a separate building just off the back, so don’t worry about your room being tainted by curry odours. Pub does food as well which looked good, would definitely recommend

Check in was up until 10pm I tried calling prior to this as we was looking at getting there just before 10 and as we arrived at 9:50 there was no staff in sight no one was answering the phones to help us with checking in

Rooms in annexe adjacent to pub which was good with adequate parking and lots of lical eaters and pubs around. Garge across road was handy also. Rooms are basic but very comfortable all you need. Did not eat at pub so cannot comment on food but .did have drink there. Brewers up road aldo serve food. Nice sray.

Really friendly staff, who were only too willing to go that or do extra to make our stop soooo good. Excellent food and drink on site, cannot say how pleasantly surprised and impressed we both were.

Filthy scummy shower This is a lovely place and the staff are wonderful. Room was great, and I would have given an extra star however; the bathroom shower was awful. The grime and build up of mould and dirt was caked on the shower head and all around the seals. A spatula would have removed significant amounts of dirt cake. This should not have been allowed to build up, which would have taken months of neglect. I don't wish to offend, but this was a big problem which made me not want to shower, so I had a squaddie wash instead, at 5 in the morning before work, this is not great.

50th birthday celebrations It was a lovely stay nice hotel lovely city will be back soon.
