My stay at the Best Western Plough And Harrow Hotel was a mixed bag. The spacious room was comfortable and well-maintained, but the noise from weddings at night was disruptive. Additionally, an unfortunate incident with my car left me frustrated, as the staff did not handle it well, which impacted my overall experience.

The room I stayed in was large and cozy, providing ample space, though it was in an older part of the hotel. The bathroom was of high quality and very clean, which was a plus.

The hotel had decent amenities, but the broken CCTV in the parking area was concerning and seemed to indicate a lack of attention to detail in facility maintenance.

I recently stayed at the Best Western Plough And Harrow Hotel, and my experience had both highlights and areas for improvement. The staff were consistently friendly and helpful, making me feel welcome right from check-in. I found my room clean and spacious, though I couldn't help but notice the decor felt a bit dated and could use a refresh. The breakfast did offer a decent variety, but my experience was marred by some mishaps, like waiting for items that ran out. Overall, I would consider staying again, especially for the comfortable bed and good service.

My stay at the Best Western Plough And Harrow Hotel was quite enjoyable with its charming historical ambiance and a comfortable bed that let me sleep soundly. The delicious breakfast and friendly staff were standout features of my stay. However, the traffic situation around the hotel during my arrival created some delays, and I found the pillows to be uncomfortable, which affected my rest overall.

Rooms

The hotel is set away from the busy city environment, which I appreciated. However, I did experience some traffic delays upon my arrival due to the busy main road it is situated on, which made getting a taxi somewhat challenging.

My stay at the Best Western Plough And Harrow was a mixed bag. While the gardens were beautiful and the bed in my room was very comfortable, I encountered several issues that detracted from my experience, such as the distant location of my room and chaotic breakfast service. Overall, it had its charm but could use some improvements.

Rooms

Breakfast started quite late, and when I finally arrived, I found the food unprepared, which meant more waiting around; the dining area was also chaotic.

The hotel offered good parking facilities, though I found it disappointing that I had to pay for parking on its own grounds.
