Cosy

We had a lovely stay the room was ideal, atmosphere was lovely and the staff again could not do enough for you. Our evening meal was hot and delicious and the plates were warm too. We had a delicious breakfast but I found out that I had to pay for it, which was a little surprised, I thought it was all included when I booked the room. But overall very nice

Have stayed 4/5 times before but this time not quite as good - hand a room on the 1st floor and was quite noisy with people walking and talking in corridor after midnight as wedding was going on. Very busy at breakfast so took 45 mins for food to arrive. Will stay again as always been excellent previously but will try and get a room on the top floor as quieter

I originally booked over a month prior to my stay. My sister was supposed to join me, unfortunately she had an accident. I contacted hotel.com to try to arrange a refund due to the circumstances, they reached out to the Greenbank Hotel and was told that their policy was strict and they would not refund. I then rang the hotel and explained the situation that my sister was unable to travel and that the reason I was coming to the hotel with my sister was to scatter our mothers ashes and have a memorial service There was no empathy from the receptionist that i spoke to and she said they had a strict policy and unable to refund. I had given them over a months notice. I was quite shocked at the lack of empathy and understanding. I travelled on my own to stay there as it had cost nearly over one Thousand two hundred pounds. My stay there was comfortable, the service good. Unfortunately the menu was too fancy and due to previous surgery i was limited to what i could eat. I decided to have Sunday lunch, the meat and gravy was nice but, all the vegetable were really hard, not edible except for the carrot parsnip mash. The roast potatoes were difficult to cut into as the skin was really tough, so i could only eat the centre of them. I will not be returning to stay at the Greenbank hotel, mainly due to how I was treated when I reached out to them for a cancellation and refund.

Unfortunately I think we got one of the worst rooms in the hotel, a classic double in room 102. It was right at the top of the stairs, and being an older building it meant we could hear every single noise in the corridor and stairway outside. The room itself was quite dated also and was not reflective of the hotel listing. Breakfast was included which is nice, and they did have vegetarian and vegan options, however the vegan breakfast was quite underwhelming and small. Despite the above the staff were very friendly and helpful, it's just a shame that the fairly high cost per night didn't reflect the facilities offered.
