“Lived up to high expectations, with a very pleasant meal to complete the positive impression.”
Breakfast offered a good choice. I recommend not keeping butter in the fridge when the ambient temperatures are already low. It was unspreadable!

Choice on the evening menu was excellent and price/quality was equally good. Wine menu seemed well priced too. Beds were comfortable, bedroom on 2nd floor was spacious and warm. Welcoming ref travelling with a dog.

“One of the nicest hotels we gave stayed in.”
The staff are friendly and very helpful.We booked a comfort plus room which was more like a little suite. The bed was huge and very comfortable. The room was spotless and the fridge a welcome addition .The double glazing stopped all road noise and a good night's sleep was gas by all. The restaurant food was amazing and very good value as was breakfast. Will definitely be staying here again.

“A superb local hotel in a delightful old city”
It is a beautiful hotel with a very pretty airy restaurant. Our room was very large with a large and light bathroom. The bed was very comfortable . We arrived with our dog. The staff could not have been more welcoming and attentive. The meal in the restaurant was most enjoyable and beautifully cooked and presented. We shall certainly return asxwe really like Mende and surrounding area. Our digcenjiyed the short walk to the riverside open space. which is very pretty.
