Me and my partner stayed here for a weekend away and it’s safe to say we loved it. The room was beautiful and so comfortable, I think we both came away disappointed we weren’t staying for longer. All the staff were really friendly and chatty and the food was delicious!

Fantastic value for money
Fantastic very for money. Very attentive staff and the room had everything I needed for the stay. Bed was comfy and room was very spacious and perfect for working on my laptop. Parking was great and the meal and drinks in the bar were top class. Would highly recommend.

Excellent experience at the Sheep and Penguin
The stay was excellent. We liked the place so much we booked a second night. Jan, Max, and Finn were are extremely helpful. The rooms were brand new and gorgeous, the showers had incredible temperature and pressure and the beds were comfy. Could not recommend more. The Pub also played good music and had an excellent selection of beers on tap.

8/10 Very good

The whole place is beautifully fitted out with careful attention to detail, so first impressions are good. The staff are willing and friendly, but there is a mismatch between appearance and expectation. The room was not serviced as expected (perhaps this was an oversight) and as this relatively business feels its way, it trips over itself trying to embrace popularity and sophistication.
2-night trip

6/10 Good

The staff were friendly and the room was comfortable and nicely presented. Checking in and out was relaxed, we were shown to our room, they offered to carry our bags, which was great as there’s a few stairs and they booked us a table for the evening. They don’t offer breakfast, which we knew, there’s cereal in the room, but no milk, even after asking for some twice the evening before, so unable to have tea, coffee or the cereal in the morning. We ate before going out for the evening and the food was lovely, there was quite a buzz in the bar / restaurant area. It was also great for us that we could get in after hours as we were out late. All in all a lovely place to stay, convenient for the city centre, but a little pricey.
