The staff at the Bell were very friendly and helpful. The room was comfortable and it had all the amenities I needed. I especially appreciated the fact that it was possible to block out all light with the window shades. We ate at the restaurant for dinner and that was excellent.

Great place to stay.
Really nice hotel. Comfy rooms, friendly staff, great food and drink. Their car park was full so they even paid parking at another car park.

Friendly welcome, great service & great food
Great little hotel. Really friendly staff good bar and very good food. Breakfast was particularly good but 8am start for breakfast not ideal for business travel. Basic room was really comfortable. Again, not ideal for business travellers as there’s no desk. Minor quibbles wouldn’t stop me staying there again (& I have)

The rooms and interior was very good and the staff were excellent. The only problem I had was the hotel is on the Main Street and the parking area is not at the hotel. There is a parking area for the hotel, but not on the premises of the hotel.

The staff couldn't have been more helpful, courteous or obliging. The room was very comfortable, we slept well and the breakfast, lunch and dinner couldn't have been better. If we are in this part of the country again we will certainly stay in this hotel.

Great place and superb staff. Has been thoroughly renovated since my last visit a couple of years ago and is much improved. Will be my new go to for this area. Car parking is available round the corner. Just ask staff for directions.

8/10 Very good

We enjoyed our stay at the Bell Hotel. We did find the portions for dinner and breakfast a bit small and a bit stingy where it shouldn't have cost much to be generous - too few toasts with the pate or the cheese course (5 crackers). A bit more generosity and it would have been a perfect stay
