Run down, poorly run
Outdated room. Housekeeping poor. Breakfast poor. Unfriendly staff with a few exceptions. The location is excellent.

A special place
Second time staying here as my children (and I) absolutely love it. This is a charming property and the historical elements are so interesting. The foyer is fascinating for children with the old fashioned phone and grand piano. Excellent location, easy walking distance to the park, lakefront and many restaurants. Very good breakfast. Room was clean and comfortable and pool is lovely.

Classy And Worth The Price
I really enjoyed my stay at Prince’s Gate Hotel. The staff were very present with their service whether at the desk or the cleaning staff. The room was fantastic and very decent size, king size bed was comfortable, carpeted, and the bathroom was nice and I got good use from the bath. The facilities were great with heated pools and sauna as well as a restaurant, although I didn’t use the attached restaurant. It was located within 10 minutes from the street shops and less than 5 from pubs and restaurants. The car park on site was fairly small but there was plenty of free parking on the side street. Definitely worth a stay, even for the price.

6/10 Good

The staff were very friendly and always very helpful. Our room was a bit different to what was shown on the photos. It was dated and required both a heater and the aircon on to keep the room warm. The bed was comfortable and overall the room was clean. I think it’s best for this hotel to share more photos of their rooms so that guests know that some rooms are very different to others. Or at least ask for a modern shower when you book as ours was an old bathtub with a very old fixed head shower where in the photos it showed a modern new shower and bathroom. The lobby area and lounge was very nice to sit and relax in by the fire.
