Hotel Information
Writing in 1727, Daniel Defo said, ?this is indeed a very special place?, which of course it is, even to this day. Equipped with 2 residents' lounges, one with a television and the other for quiet relaxation, perhaps with a coffee or a drink, the hotel also contains a concert grand piano complete with parlour palm, though you might have to contend with a very serious soprano practising for the evening's opera performance.
The Old Hall Hotel is the first choice for theatre goers. It provides a well-known pre and post-theatre supper and special theatre-goers' room tariffs, including theatre tickets. It is a natural setting for a wonderful evening at the opera followed by dinner and a comfortable night's sleep.
Surrounding Area

Restaurants
If you are dining from the table d'hote menu in the excellent restaurant, or enjoying the Chef's Special in the popular wine bar, you will appreciate the extra thought and creativity of choice in the menus and wine lists.
The wine bar is open all day and evening for coffee, afternoon tea. It also serves an all-day menu and, very importantly, pre and post-theatre supper. It is very much the haunt for theatre-goers, actors and musicians.
