The Mount Pleasant Hotel

We stayed for 2 nights in a basic room. For a basic room it was very well equipped, although the en-suite shower room was very cramped. Lovely comfortable bed. The meals were delicious. I'm vegan but it was no problem to find something I could eat. I would have given 5 stars but, spilt soapy water on the floor was never cleaned up & the towels not tided, also there were cobwebs on the stairs. Really enjoyed our stay & will definitely return.

The room was lovely with a brilliant view. Breakfast was good too. The only criticism I have is that there was a wedding on the Saturday eve, not an issue, just would have been nice to be informed so I could have brought my ear plugs as the room the wedding was in was directly below our room & was so loud due to a live band, literally felt the room shake. But otherwise the stay was lovely & would go back.

We visited and stayed as part of a wedding party. The staff were all friendly and helpful right from check-in to check-out. The food for the wedding party was curry with a meat and veggie option and was fine given that you have to cater for a wide range of tastes. The continental breakfast was rather limited and didn’t really stand alone. I usually only have a good continental breakfast but opted to follow this one with a veggie full English, which was excellent! I ate it all even though I didn’t really need it. Our room (12) was noisy into the evening as it is on ground level and in front of the outdoor seating area, so if you need to get to sleep early I’d advise asking for a room at the back. For me, sleep was a real challenge as it’s a small double bed and my husband kept hitting me whenever he turned over. I had a very bad night. Facilities in the room are fairly basic but generally adequate and the bedroom feels a little shabby (not in a chic way) but all the cabinetry was in good working order. The bathroom was clean and looks fairly new but sadly the shower thermostat was not working and I couldn’t reduce the temperature to a comfortable heat. Shower gel/shampoo is provided, but no other toiletries. All in all, a nice atmosphere and good staff, the rooms just need some updating.
