Second stay better than the first!
Second time staying here and was even better than the first. Was on the top floor this time, lovely big bathroom and very quiet. Receptionists were super friendly on check in and check out. Thank you and see you next month!

Great place and location
The location is really cool and in the right area for the visit. This is a historical site, so not the most up to date amenities. No room service or food. No air conditioning and it was fairly hot while we were there.

Very nice, but would think twice before booking in the middle of summer. Rooms get very hot. Luckily, fans are provided.
perfect location with everything a short walk away. Quiet, clean with plenty of character and the wall art in the rooms were great

Quirky hotel in a perfect location.
This is a lovely boutique hotel in the centre of the city. Perfect location for shopping, theatres and restaurants. Its ideal if you are travelling by train or public transport but if going by car there is obviously no parking. We parked on the Marygate park but it was £22.50 for about 20 hrs which would be expensive if you were to stay a few days. There is no restaurant but tea and coffee making facilities provided and plenty of eating places close by. You can also get drinks delivered to the room. The rooms are large and stylish and clean.

Quiet quaint little hotel
I stayed at Judges Court for one night and really liked its central, yet tucked-away location. The hotel was mostly clean and well-kept - a little tired in some parts of the bedroom, but the bed was comfortable and it was lovely and quiet. The ladies on reception were very friendly and helpful when I asked about a recommendation for dinner, and with storing my bags on the day I checked out. Overall, I would recommend.

No parking near
Had some charm. Would not stay again due to no parking and having to cart bags a mile from the closest car park. Also steep stairs to cart bags up
