A very nice stay, a beautiful building with well decorated rooms (quirky but cool). High quality at a reasonable price. The staff was very helpful, and the food good, if a little bit slow on a Saturday night. We really enjoyed our stay and will stay again if we’re in the area.

Lovely man welcomed us on arrival and was very helpful. big bedroom with a sofa so didn't have to sit on the bed. Liked the quirky décor. Bed very comfortable. Delicious breakfast. I booked the hotel last minute and only stayed one night so wasn't really an issue however I have arthritis in my wrists and knees which means I couldn't get in/out of the free sanding bath so therefore couldn't take a bath or a shower.

I like the "shabby chic" decor, but one or two areas needed some attention. The staff were very friendly and efficient.

The room was very large, of a quirky “distressed” design , comfortable four poster and two baths, plenty of hot water and warm. Some simple maintenance would be good- dead lightbulbs, broken window glass and slightly blocked sink for example. Breakfasts were very good as was breakfast service. Sunday evening meal was mediocre.

Awful stay and careless staff
we arrived to check in and we were handed a key and a fob and we were advised if we are to get back late we should use the fob to get into the hotel via the side door. We got to our room and we were surprised to find the toilet was in the corner of the room with frosted glass for privacy. The shower over the bath was in the side of the room with nothing not even a shower curtain for privacy, and the sink was an arms reach from the side of the bed. We got ready and went out for the evening and arrived back at the hotel around midnight. We got to the side door to find the fob was not working! After multiple attempts of trying different codes on the keypad trying to use the fob we couldn’t get in. We tried banging on the door to see if anybody would come to the door to let us in. Nobody came. We then tried calling the hotel only to find nobody was working in the hotel at this point and nobody was answering the phone. With the car keys in the room and no other means of getting in, after an hour outside, We ended up having to push the door as far as we could to just about get one of our hands through to reach the green button inside the hotel to release the magnetic strip at the top of the door so we could get in. However as we had all of our weight on the door so we could sneak a hand in, we ended up falling to the ground. The next morning on check out we told the staff what happened and all they said was “as long as nothing is broken that’s all that matters” Appalling service

Noisy and uncomfortable
Noisy hotel, especially at night. Were not told that the hotel was also a pub. Bed was not comfortable. Ensuite arrangements in room were very strange - toilet almost part of the room. Staff were all helpful and courteous.

Bring your ear plugs.
Having booked a room specifying it was including our 5 year old, I’m not sure why they put us in a room directly above their private dining area, which was hosting a 30th birthday party on the night we stayed. Poor soundproofing meant we had a terrible nights sleep. Not a great place to stay with a family, but would be great for couples etc having a night out.

An old Victorian house converted by using glass partitions in the room to create en suite and wardrobe. Bed very comfortable and warm. Food was a letdown. Service was slow and dinner quality was below par (dry fish pie and chewy duck). Serving staff universally pleasant. Could do with some refurbishment.

Once shabby chic now verging on shabby shabby with broken fixtures and fittings. Bed comfy and clean but room and environs is showing signs of needing a makeover/spruce up as it remains as it was when it reopened in 2014.

Overall, good value with many positives
Friendly staff, nice room - spacious and comfortable bed, excellent breakfast, good location, competitive price. Things to consider would be limited and unsupervised parking and higher than usual noise levels due to thin walls and wooden floors everywhere.

Nice enough but...
Booked 'very lovely room' which is advertised on hotels.com as having a king-size bed, disappointed to find out it was only a double. The room was clean and tidy and nicely styled, though we didn't like the glass doors on the toilet with a large hole to use for opening the door where the handle would normally be but that's personal preference. The main issue we had was being woken up at 6.30am by staff dragging and banging furniture in the restaurant room directly below our room, which continued for over 30mins so we were unable to get back to sleep. Very disappointing and frustrating, especially after a late night the previous night and expecting to be able to sleep-in the following morning. We mentioned this to a staff member on checking out and he told us that he had ‘already dealt with it having spoken to the staff moving furniture and made them stop as soon as he arrived’ which was also at 6.30am - why the delay?! – regardless, the noise went on far too long and our feedback was essentially dismissed by the staff member, neither of which we felt was acceptable.

Really enjoyed my stay at D'Parys. Staff were lovely and helpful, chefs made us a dinner late just as kitchen was closing. Food was lovely. The rooms were super cute all contained in one room. Great location too.
