Positive Reviews
positive:
Old world character
The Charsfield has been described by some guests as having an abundance of old world charm and character. It is the type of quiet you cannot find if you stay in the inner city. A great place to unwind and relax, but close enough to all amenities.
positive:
Breakfast is great
Breakfast has been described as "scrumptious", with a variety of dishes to choose from, from hot waffles to fresh fruit, there is something for everyone. The coffees are full of flavor and the staff will make sure you don't leave until you are content.
positive:
Spotlessly clean
From plush beds and pillows, to soft, white bath towels, travelers have commented on the neatly arranged furnishings to the wonderfully clean hallways and guest rooms. This hotel is in good hands and very well-looked after by the management and staff.
Negative Reviews
negative:
Rooms are a little small
Some visitors commented about the rooms being a little on the small side, nonetheless by the end of the vacation, the charm, elegance and grand old history of The Charsfied did not detract from having a great time.
negative:
Wi-Fi is slow
Although Wi-Fi is free, guests commented that free does not mean fast. Speed and coverage is not what most browsers are used to. If you really do need to be connected during your stay, it might be a good idea to use your own device.
negative:
Hot water a little temperamental
Be careful when you take a shower, as the hot water tends to get hotter, or colder, without warning. It might be a better idea to take your shower early when fewer guests are using the hot water.
