Modern, contemporary and clean room with a lovely walk in shower. The bar and restaurant were the same. Breakfast was fresh and delicious and we had dinner in the restaurant the first night too, also delicious . The best bit of the stay were the staff, so friendly with nothing ring too much trouble for them to make sure our stay was perfect. Great location too for local attractions and other eateries. We’ll definitely be back. Thank you for making our stay so enjoyable.

Liked: Staff & service
The hotel was ideal for a short stay and all the staff were very helpful, nice and accommodating. The food from the restaurant was really nice, the Sunday roast especially. The breakfast wasn't great value for money, it was nice, not for that cost. My only issue was with the lack of soundproofing which meant that I could hear everything from the bar downstairs and the music from the kitchen.

Overnight Stay at The Slate

We stayed in room 5, it was clean, cosy, warm, with a comfortable bed. Large shower cubicle, soft towels, complimentary toiletries. Nice view from the window. We had an evening meal, large portions, a bit pricey but absolutely worth it.
