Very friendly staff. As close to the racecourse as it’s possible to get. Got a great nights sleep. However was relatively expensive so perhaps there was an event that pushed the price up. But I usually expect more (or London) for the price.

Refreshed front of house, rooms need the same

Good check-in process, the hotel front of house areas have had a refresh and the hotel is now looking more contemporary. Unfortunately, the bedrooms need the same attention as they are tired and the bathroom in my room was very small.
