Charlotte House Hotel is often praised for its fantastic location, right by the castle, with the cathedral just a short walk through the castle walls. Guests frequently highlight the spacious, clean rooms, with some even featuring a separate lounge area and a large bathroom. While the continental breakfast is generally well-received, some guests have pointed out the need to pay extra for a cooked breakfast at a nearby café. Many appreciate the convenience of having a smart TV in their room and tea and coffee replenished daily.

EXCELLENT Stay NEAR Historical SITES

amazing proximityshort walkantique furnitureunappealing option
The hotel boasts AMAZING proximity to historical landmarks. The cathedral is just a short walk. The parking was convenient right next to the hotel. I appreciated the antique furniture and decor in the common areas.
The continental breakfast lacked appealing options. There were only croissants filled with fruit or custard available. I would have preferred bread buns alongside the ham and cheese.
Dining

The continental breakfast included local Stokes Coffee which was a plus. There was also ham and cheese available . I appreciated the option of croissants with fruit and custard filling and there was fruit to choose from too.

missing waterinaccessible bar
The room lacked bottled water. This was unexpected given the price per night. I found the bar inaccessible all Saturday due to a wedding. Prior notification of this would have been welcome. It was also difficult to locate the second set of towels. They were hidden in the wardrobe. The room was booked for two, so providing two sets of towels initially seems logical.

Decent Stay With Some Issues

warm roomdamaged blinds
The room got really toasty, it was like sleeping in a sauna. The bed wasn't that great either. We found just a lonely towel, it was sad, especially since there were two of us. Plus, the window blinds clearly needed fixing. They were a mess.
