The Queen Elizabeth Suite
- Sleeps 2
- Double Bed
- Separate Lounge Area
- En suite Bathroom with Walk-in Shower & Roll-top Bath in Bedroom
This iconic suite is named after Queen Elizabeth I, who is believed to have stayed at the Maids Head during her visit to the city in 1587. Solid exposed beams run throughout the spacious lounge and bedroom, with a feature headboard and 16th-century furniture adding character. The wallpaper reflects Queen Elizabeth's love of chess, while the bathroom's hand-painted tiles carry a warm red Elizabethan pattern. A roll-top bath sits within the room, with a large bathroom offering a walk-in shower.
When booking online, please request the suite you'd like to reserve and our team will check availability and confirm your request. Kindly note, extra tall guests may find the low beams in this room a challenge.
