Brilliantly located, easy to access, clean, comfortable and with all the amenities we wanted. Only minor grumble was creaky floorboards so noise from the people walking about in the room above and doesn’t have a breakfast option but there are plenty of restaurants in the area.

It's a lovely well kept Victorian with beautiful interiors. I would have appreciated additional table tops or shelving for travel gear. I would definitely stay here again.

The good: good location, easy parking, nice big bedroom, cathedral view The not so good: small bathroom (St Alban - have stayed in other rooms here with bigger bathrooms), only one chair, everything feels a little bit tired and dated, one might be forgiven for expecting more for the premium prices being charged!

A lovely boutique hotel (basically renovated rooms in a historic mansion). Rooms were comfortable and modern. Had a mini fridge in each room (which is rare), and access to a shared kitchen area for cooking etc. which was handy. Could do with some facial tissues in the room. Other than that, the check in/out process was contact-free and fuss-free. Would stay again in future!

Loved the location! As a solo female staying there, I would have liked windows with better and working locking mechanisms (one was broken altogether and neither of them were very sturdy)
as well as better lighting around the property at night. Since it was summer, windows needed to be open for air circulation but need a way to lock them in open position thats better. Everything else was fine.

Beautiful Georgian house with lovely spacious rooms. Added bonus of use of the kitchen so I could cater for myself. The one drawback is that it is on a main road and as my room was at the front of the property it was very noisy

Really nice apartment set in a lovely building. The room was spacious and well equipped with a small fridge and tea and coffee making facilities in the room. There was a shared kitchen also which was well equipped. The bed however was possibly the luckiest bed I’ve ever slept on.

Paid £145 for a 1 night stay without breakfast, so expected this room to be a little bit special. Although a good size and comfy bed, there were so many details that would have made this better. Like the fridge was sitting on one bedside table so no room for much else on there. No shelf in room or bathroom (apart from small mantel piece) to put your toiletries/ makeup on, no long mirror to see what you looked like on a night out, lightbulbs missing and a couple kept flickering, safe not attached to wall and covered in dust, wardrobe tiny, battered and tired looking and dusty. Potential was there but finishing touches not. Also if you wanted normal TV channels out of luck as had to sign up for Britbox, which I didn't do as the last person's details were still up for me to see and didn't want mine left there for confidentiality reasons. Key box for room 6 key also hard to open even with code! No plugs near mirror to straighten hair (luckily mine had an extra long lead), iron was missing, door switches wrong side of entrance door, so had to find in dark, marks on carpet and walls even though it was stated that a £200 deposit was held to pay for stain cleaning and breakages!

Torrington Hall is a serviced apartment, not a guesthouse. My review may have been higher had I booked a serviced apartment. There is no lighting outside and the house is set in a courtyard off the street, so I had to use the light from my phone to put in the code to enter the property (at 7pm). Incredibly unsafe. There is no-one on site. You get your key from a keybox and look after yourself. My room had a rickety door and was right next to the communal kitchen (this is basically a house that has been converted into 6 "apartments". Bed was horrendous - it dips so low you sleep in a "v" shape. None of the furniture matched and a lot of it smelled (especially the closet, which I didn't feel happy putting clothes in). The bathroom was massive and there was at least hot water with decent pressure. The TV is small and so far away from the bed it's unwatchable (because the room is so big).

Good value with parking. Lovely shower and excellent location for Town Centre. But…bed not that comfortable (old, springy mattress) and a little too noisy with road noise.
