Staying at the Old Ship Hotel is a glimpse into the past - the history is wonderful and the location is great . Our room was a decent size and comfortable, other than the bed that we found too soft , and it does show its age in the furniture and carpets and so on - but still a great stay , we’ll be back

I did not sleep well on my second (and last) night due to guests upstairs being nosy and heavy footed after midnight. However, the night staff were so helpful and spoke with the guests twice asking them to quieten down. I was even offered a room change.

The stay was absolutely fine and comfortable, where the slightly lower scores are as a result of some areas of the hotel look a little tired and worn out; however this was and has been reflected in the budget price. You get what you pay for and the room was clean enough. Some molud on the ceiling but nothing too much to worry about.
