Disappointed
We stayed at this hotel last year and really enjoyed it however we are disappointed that this year they tried to charge us £17 each for breakfast even though it says £12 on your website. When questioning it we were told it includes service charge. Well I've never had to pay a service charge for breakfast in a hotel especially for a self service breakfast.We eventually agreed to pay £15 even though this was still 25% more than it should have been. Needless to say we won't be staying there next year.

After some of the reviews, we didn’t expect much but the hotel was pretty good. The staff were universally excellent and friendly, particularly those on the bar on the Friday. The hotel was very dog friendly- you can’t go into the restaurant but everything there is available in the lounge and bar and it’s much better there for dogs anyway. The food was Hilton, so nothing good but nothing bad. They have preserved the original fittings which was excellent. Expedia hadn’t passed on our message about bringing a dog so we were put in the courtyard rooms that others had complained about - but they were great rooms. Well appointed and comfortable. Of course it wasn’t completely perfect. The toilet was sort of wedged between the door and the sink. I wouldn’t have wanted to be any fatter! And I think there should be a toilet brush but I know others don’t like that. It’s easily walkable to the old city where there are fabulous dining options. We would stay here again for sure.

The main part of the hotel is in a very distinctive Art Nouveau style. The courtyard extension is like a Premier Inn! I complained as was moved into the main hotel without any problem. The staff are very friendly and the breakfast buffet is excellent. Only negative was that no water was provided in my minibar by housekeeping for 2 nights.

It was the third time we visit this hotel and this time we've found it substantially less clean than other times, having to request extra towel as one of the ones we had was absolutely dirty and we had no shampoo in the room. Floors (including carpet) weren't that clean as well.

Elmbank is a 20 minute walk from city centre, but there is also a regular bus service right outside and going late into the night. The room was small but beautiful, finished to a very high standard. The communal areas and bar were a lovely place to sit and relax after a day of sight seeing by an open fire.
