Booked up after looking at the reviews on Tripadvisor and wasn't disappointed. My room was of a good size and spotlessly clean. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The food was better than most hotels I have stayed at and the location is fantastic. more

We recently held a three day conference at this lovely hotel which we filled to capacity. From the day I booked it to the last day, we experienced a high standard of professional service, the fullest, willing co-operation, innovative menus and excellent food, friendly and helpful staff. The hotel was spotlessly clean in all areas that we encountered, with cosy... more

I went to the Hermitage last night with my 17yr old son as we were going to a show at The Pavilion. I booked 2 single rooms and we were upgraded to 2 doubles.

However the bar and restaurant staff and cleaners were helpful... more
