An smart city centre hotel with a bar open to the public and with a couple of handpumps we hear. Alfred's Saxon Bronze available just before Christmas 2019.
November 2022 report said real ale not available. At the time we were not sure if this was just off for the day or removed permanently. January 2023 report confirms permanent loss of real ale though the handpumps remain but unused.
