Stayed at The Bowers while on a business trip, as I was going to be arriving after midnight the staff were very accommodating by leaving a key out for me.
The room itself was very dated with some mismatched furniture and does require a makeover. Can’t fault the bed as it was one of the best I have slept in.
I was visiting at a time when the temperature had plummeted and found that the heating goes off at night, was like sleeping in a freezer. Can’t fault the management as they sorted the heating out after I reported it.
Be aware that breakfast only starts at 9 so may not fit into business trips, I was lucky enough to have a late start on one day and tried the breakfast. Only I can say is if you can delay any meetings till 10 have the breakfast as it is amazing.
