Lovely hotel
When we arrived we met Fabio the head chef and Zoe who was incharge of the hotel bookings. They were absolutly delightful, i have never recieved such a warm welcome while staying at a hotel. Also the beds were so comfortable it was like sleeping on a cloud!

My room was 'brand new'. Although I thought that I booked a double, it had four single beds. No matter, I was by myself in the end. It was very very clean, as if untouched, but felt a bit unfinished. The main issue was realising on the morning of my departure that there is no smoke detector; just a wire sticking out of the ceiling. It is literally unfinished.

We were disappointed that the breakfast we ordered the night before wasn’t that great, the chef didn’t seem aware that we were having breakfast,even being told the night before. It wasn’t what we were led to believe, which was the full cooked English breakfast. We were told eggs,bacon,sausage,hash browns,mushrooms,baked beans,tomato and toast. We got egg,bacon,tomato and mushroom,with toast and a large tub of butter. And the coffee was instant in a large mug with your spoon stuck in it. We were not impressed to say the least, especially when you are charging an extra £7.50 for it. I think you are asking a lot for the room as it is. Also this is the first time we have stayed in a hotel where the bed is not made up for the next day, and surprised there is no staff on the premises over night. The staff turned up midday, don’t know what people would do if there was an emergency. Must say though the couple that run the pub next door were very nice and helpful. I think there are a few issues that need sorting out.

An excellent experience
This is an excellent boutique hotel. Clean, friendly, and reasonably priced. I recommend it, especially for someone who needs just one or two nights in Sheffield on a business trip and with a limited budget. A big advantage is the availability of parking.

Of all the hotels we have stayed in, this was the most disappointing. There was no reception and we only managed to make contact through the manager of the pub next door. The room, though clean enough, was very cramped with a double and single bed taking up most of the space. The TV was on the window sill which meant we couldn't draw the curtains and watch at the same time. The bathroom was unheated and very little in the way of toiletries was provided. Curiously there were 8 tiny shampoo bottles and only one shower gel bottle. On enquiring about the promised breakfast arrangements we were told that they were no longer available but that there were places 'nearby' we could use. No further information was forthcoming and the only commercial street nearby was down a steep hill. There was no maid service at all - beds unmade and soiled cups just left. This place just did not provide a proper hotel service and was very poor value for money.

Standard room very comfortable and clean
Excellent stay. Stayed in standard king room. Really comfortable bed, everything clean. Staff very friendly and helpful and accommodated special requests. Would recommend going to them directly for these rather than through external websites. Perfect for our stay, short walk to city centre and Sheffield United football stadium.

The Dalbury & Palmer
The room was reasonably well-appointed, though on arrival, the key box proved stubborn to open. Under the bed was a previous guest's fish and chip papers in a bag. The shower room was necessarily small and the hand-basin awkward, which led me to think that the room was slightly overpriced. The room was quiet and the bed comfortable.

J'ai beaucoup apprécié l'accueil chaleureux et la gentillesse du couple ,et aussi je me suis sentie à la maison. Mais j'aurais voulu que le petit petit déjeuner et soit systématique.
