Good, older-style hotel in the centre of town

Older style hotel, largely refurbished to quite a high standard. Some difficulty keeping windows open (this was a 2nd floor room) -- it was a very hot day. Staff reasonably welcoming. Good dinner selection, although service was a little slow as the place was quite full.

It is a 2 prong sword, we loved the location, the staff were amazing, the hotel is clean but the rooms are sub par. We got a superior room, it is just old and not keep up which is a shame. The other reason it didnt get a great score is the parking or should I say lack of.
Shelf missing that's called maintenance, old is ok but not lazy maintenance.

I really enjoyed my stay at the Priory Hotel. It's a nice, quiet location with a great breakfast included in the rate. However, what I loved the most was the staff. In particular, I want to thank Iren at the front desk again. I arrived at the hotel late at night, and the kitchen was already closed. Out of pure kindness, Iren decided to make me a sandwich herself so I could eat. If that isn't amazing customer service and going the extra mile, I don't know what would be! Great stay, 100% recommended.
