“Very comfortable and friendly”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 22 September 2006
3
people found this review helpful

The Gables is a comfortable guest house about 10 minutes bus journey from the city centre. The buses are fairly frequent and there is a stop right outside the hotel, so making easy access to the city and its sights.

Our room was spacious and clean and exceptionally comfortable. And the breakfast was one of the best I have had in hotels as it is freshly cooked on ordering.

Staff are friendly and the hotel has a cosy feel to it, and not at all impersonal like some hotels are likely to be.

  • Liked — rooms
  • Tips/Secrets — the bus stop into town is directly out of the hotel on the main road.

“Straightforward B&B for business travellers”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 8 July 2006

people found this review helpful

One of a group of B&Bs about 15 minutes walk to the University. Surrounded by 1930s housing, so few shops or eateries nearby (I bought a picnic at the Tesco Express at the nearby garage).

Modern house with rather dark decor, but well-run, quiet, clean and comfortable. Good breakfast. Recommended for a couple of nights business stay, not really a holiday B&B.
