5/5 Excellent
Really lovely staff without exception
"Very comfortable stay. Nice pool, nice room with opening window for fresh air.
But, most importantly, every single member of staff was exceptionally friendly and polite - and they all work hard. Service really good, restaurant food is amazing. Each meal I tried (for the week) was spot on. Especially the duck! Prices very reasonable imho.
Also, in the bar open during the day, small breakfast options such as baps are available.
Really nice overall feel."

"The Prince Rupert is peffectly located in the heart of the city, yet quiet and comfortable. The staff were perhaps the most friendly I have ever encountered as a whole team at any hotel ever. I also found that the hotel was very scentless - though very clean, they must use products without strong smells, which I appreciated as I have a reaction to scents. Just a very lovely stay overall! Our room #304 had the best balcony, and I would recommend requesting it when the weather is warmer. "
"It was a very fun hotel and has a pool ans small steam and sauna ans tiny jacuzzi. The spa changing are was basic. The room ans bathroom was modern. The breakfast was reasonable for a 4 star with fried eggs the best bit and mini pastries tucked away in the corner- no queues etc either.
On check in and check out lots of towels or bedding littering hallways which didnt make a great 1st impression leading to the room. We came with kids and booked 2 rooms as they are small and i think only do cot beds not rollaways. Very close to station and shopping and the local costa."

Great hotel, lovely grounds, workout area horrible
"Staff were great, hotel in general good. The amenities pool, workout area, showers left me cold. The treadmills are dusty, dirty, screens did not work and were nasty. The entire room needs a thorough clean. We had a wonderful family breakfast and it was wonderful. "

"I arrived tired and with a massive headace so I wasn't in the best of moods. Me and my young son went into our room which was really cosy. I lay on the bed having forgotten to bring paracetamol and felt awful. Then I heard a dog barking continuously in the room under ours. I let it go for ten minutes then had to ring reception. As I said I wasnt in the best of moods so I took my frustration out on the receptionist and asked to be moved away from the dog. I did immediately apologise, I know it wasnt her fault I just felt unwell and the dog was making it worse. The dog carried on for another 20 minutes or so then reception rang me back, they had found us a new room. I can't praise the hotel enough. It was spotlessly clean, the staff were amazing, the beds were so comfortable. I had an amazing sleep, and my headache had vanished, thank god! The breakfast the next morning was beautiful, everything there that you could possibly want, cereal, toast, croissants, fruit, the cooked breakfast were nice and hot, the coffee really smooth and plenty for my son as in the way of milk, fruit juices and water.
I would definitely recommend this hotel. "
