The Hind Hotel

We had afternoon tea at The Hind Hotel to celebrate a birthday. I’d like to start by saying that the staff were pleasant and the food, which was standard sandwiches and cakes, was decent and relatively good value for money, although another savoury item such as crisps would have been nice. The biggest let down was the atmosphere. We had a 7 year old and my elderly grandmother who is 94 with us and the music playing when we arrived was some kind of rap which seemed very bizarre considering the setting. We started off as the only people in the bar restaurant and when a few other older people came in the music changed to something far more mainstream and appropriate but then towards the end of the hour or so that we were there seemed to switch back to songs with questionable lyrics - lots of swearing and talk of guns and shooting. Even my 7 year old turned to me and said “wow this music is inappropriate” ‍♀️ I have absolutely nothing against this kind of music but not really what you want to be listening to enjoying afternoon tea with an elderly lady and a young child on a Tuesday afternoon! The place has so much potential but it was a bit of a let down, along with being a bit grubby, big splashes of drink stains down the walls near the table and the tea cups were stained.

Food definitely needs a massive rework. Shower and windows had very visible mould. Staff were absolutely ace and (bar the mould) room and bar was top notch. Cheap for the area and would recommend for a short stay, but swerve buying any food.

Tired old, shabby & you have to return your room key to reception every time you leave the building.

4 Night stay Our room was very good. Recently refurbished. Small carpark. Staff were all helpful and welcoming. Evening meals poor.

Old charm place very clean , the bar is reasonably priced good overall experience

Absolutely awful WiFi and the all night noise off music and people talking loudly from the club next to the hotel kept us awake. We gave up trying to sleep through the nightclub noise after 1am and left. They won't tell you this before you arrive, so if you require WiFi for any reason, or a quiet night sleep, I would definitely avoid. I did complain about it, but they weren't interested. Clearly, they're more concerned about taking your money than they about providing decent accommodation or dealing with customer complaints appropriately. Also, lots of areas need a bit of maintenance. See photos from our room as examples.
