Pinsent Hotel
Reviews

Inedible, overpriced food, unprofessional kitchen staff. Really I'm not even sure where to begin with this, never before have I ever felt to compelled during a review then to tell people to stay away from such a horrid mediocre business. The food, I ordered some garlic bread that was exorbitantly priced, what I received was 4 cold tragic awkwardly sized abortions of food. The " garlic bread" looked as though it came from a bulk distributor, frozen with just enough garlic "butter" if that what it was, to pass as said product. The side salad which came out in a dirty cup, tasted like it had been made last week, however unlike the garlic bread it came out of the kitchen hot. There was enough shaved carrot in the cup to accurately describe it shaved carrot with dry wilted lettuce. My main meal should of been simple enough Chicken Parmigiana, this was a mistake. I wanted to eat quickly and hurry to my next engagement. My meal only came out after complaining to a young waitress had been waiting for 40 minuets. The chicken was dry, the breadcrumbs were almost as thick as the chicken the chesse had almost plastic texture the tomato paste was "unusual" in that it had unidentifiable spice or herb possibily cross contamination from other food, however thankful for small mercies the food was hot. However the "best" part of the night was listening to who I can only imagine to be the head chef yell and belittle his kitchen staff in a terse and unprofessional and utterly pathetic manner then tried to garner sympathy by telling them his back hurt. This was done in full earshot of myself and a entire line of patrons lined up to make their orders. I imagine if this business was not almost entirely fueled by shopa-docket wielding pensioners they would almost certainly be out of business. I wish I could leave no stars on this rating.

Small, Cheap but pretty clean, The room I had the bathroom door wouldn't shut, complained to the guy at the bar and he said, yeah mate it's been like that for years. Very, Very noisy with drunken guests slamming doors and arguing all night. The Bistro downstairs was packed on Saturday and they were far from keen to have a single person dining alone. Apparently it's a waste of a table. If you just want a bed and that's all it's OK for the price. No Internet at all.
