Hotel Reviews The Western Hotel
Group
United Kingdom, Oct 2008
The hotel was nice and friendly and the room was very spacious although the wallpaper was peeling off in places. It was clean and tidy though. The hotel staff were very helpful. Breakfast was quite good with a lot of choice. Fabulous speciality breads but the preserves were awful, really tasteless jam and marmalade which let down the rest of the standard of food. The live music in the bar was pretty awful at times! Overall though we enjoyed our stay and would most likely return again.

Nice hotel just off Eyre Square (but far enough to be away from the pub crowds). Free WLAN in the bar and lobby on ground floor. Good spacious room, there was some disco music at nights but not loud enough to be annoying.
