“King Alfred Hotel seems to balance local charm with modern expectations. While some experiences appear inconsistent, particularly around busy times, the potential for a satisfying meal is definitely there. I would say it's worth considering for its value, but perhaps best to manage expectations and arrive early.”

The parking area was available .
I found some issues that need attention. The shower head sprayed water everywhere, a real nuisance to use.. the toilet seat was loose, and a staff member admitted this had been a problem for some time. Broken glass also lay scattered in the car park.
