About
Hotel Clementine
Hotel Clementine occupies a handsome Victorian building on a quiet residential street, yet the city centre is a short stroll away. The property blends period character—original fireplaces, four-poster beds, and a sun terrace—with modern comforts like flat-screen TVs and free Wi-Fi throughout.
Mornings start with a made-to-order breakfast in the dining room, or you can opt for in-room dining. The bar and lounge invite slow afternoons, while the garden and terrace offer a peaceful retreat. With key-card access, luggage storage, and a warm welcome for pets, the hotel is set up for both short city breaks and longer stays.

–
Worth weighing
4 to weigh- Rooms can be small — Some guest rooms are compact—particularly the 'Small Queen' and 'Small Double'—and a few reviewers found attic rooms cramped.
- Price and service rating lower than other categories — At £127 per night, some guests may feel the value doesn't always match expectations, especially given the smaller rooms.
- Check-in window is limited — Check-in is only between 16:00 and 22:30, which may be restrictive for guests arriving later or needing early access.
- No air conditioning — The hotel relies on heating and open windows; during warmer months, rooms may not cool down quickly.
