“The Old Palace Lodge presents a curious mix of historical structure and variable upkeep. While some rooms show recent renovation and contemporary bathroom design, others feel dated, and the lack of bedside conveniences is a recurring issue. Its gardens and event spaces still hold undeniable appeal for weddings and gatherings, despite some inconsistent experiences.”
