Awful nights sleep. Mattress like sleeping on a griddle! Constant water noise from tap sink in room so like Chinese water torture! Scuttling noises all night ? What from!! No loo in room and loo down the corridor was shared between 3 rooms. Every available space has a bed in it. Miserable! More

I stayed at the Garth Hotel in Fall 2010. The room was a derelict cubicle with no heating on, dust EVERYWHERE, with a dirty bathroom. The woman at the reception was more interested in watching a film than taking care of my requests. I was so disgusted by the filthiness of the place, and by the rudeness of the hostess,... More

The room was tidy.It was like it was one room cut in two. Would of liked a double bed.Instead we got two single beds lined up on each other.And that was the size of the room. This must of been done to grab as much money as poss. The light shade was dirty. No en suite.Which i knew about.But there... More

I stay at this "hotel" the night before a family funeral, our room and the whole building appeared to be furnished by items from a car boot sale. The room was dirty and the furniture was badly stained. Do not be taken in by the room charge, or the outside facade, we paid over £120 for the nght. I had... More

This is a guest house style hotel with a quirky independent feel. If you are looking for a plush upmarket get away then this is probably not for you. The decor of the hotel may be considered dated by some but we felt it added charm and home-like quality to our stay. Breakfast was very good and we were pleased.... More

No BBC let alone freeview. Scuttling noises all night ? What from!! No loo in room and loo down the corridor not attached to the floor! Miserable!!! More

Room dated. Tv from 1990 didn't work. Shower door dangerously out of repair. "en suite" was a trap. My husband nearly broke the door down trying to get out. Breakfast was a shambles, no organisation & very mean on portions. Icing on the cake? They had workmen ripping up the carpets in the rooms around us at 8am on a... More

I've stayed here before for business visits to London. The hotel wasn't the best, but then the price was cheap, location very central and breakfast was good and filling. This last visit I found that they had re-decorated the rooms and re-carpeted the whole hotel, so I thought I'd give them a review to encourage the positive changes going on.... More

If you like surliness served with indifference, the Garth is the hotel for you. I stayed there years ago before it changed hands and was in for an unpleasant surprise. The new ownership has let the hotel run down to a very seedy state. But the worse aspect is the appalling management who could care less about the comfort or... More
