It is a nice location away from town. Dining the first night was very noisy - a group of golfers and it took management over an hour to ask them to quieten down after complaints from other patrons. Noisy in the corridors at night - revellers coming back from partying - awaken three different times with conversations and laughing. Bedroom was cold. Drainage in the bath tub slow so stagnating water. Overall, an unpleasant experience. I shan't be returning to this location.

We stayed at this hotel as 4 friends getting together for a birthday weeekend we werent dissapointed by the size of the rooms and the layout however we were a little dissapointed by the bar facilities that were on offer we understand that it is a golf club but would have thought you would have a more relaxing place for guests to sit and unwind for such a large hotel its lacking in adequate seating would be much better with big comfy chairs and a nice bar area to golfy for my liking

Great Staff & Anniversary Touches, But Needs TLC
We had a lovely stay at the Forest of Arden Hotel & Spa. The staff were incredibly warm and welcoming, and the thoughtful gesture of a welcome plate of desserts and a personalised note in our room for our anniversary made it even more special. The lobby had a lovely scent, which added to the welcoming atmosphere. We also made use of the pool, which was nice and refreshing. However, while we appreciated the hospitality, the room itself felt a bit dated, with some paint chipped off the walls. Additionally, we were disappointed that the bar near the lobby closed before midnight, leaving us with no other options to enjoy a drink. Room service also stopped at 10:30 pm, which limited our late-night choices. Overall, it was a pleasant stay, and we’d stay again and recommend it due to its close proximity to the city and the N.E.C. There’s room for improvement in the amenities and room maintenance.

Could be better
We stayed here for 3 nights as a couple, our room was lovely & the bed was really comfortable. However there were 2 bath robes hanging up, one was fluffy & soft, but the other one felt like you were wearing a bit of old carpet, wasnt comfortable at all. The tea making facilities in the room were great, the espresso machine was a nice added extra but there was only decaffeinated pods available... absolutely pointless. The hotel was generally clean & tidy apart from there were trays of food left in the hallway for 5+ hours. We went to the "fine dining" restaurant in the hotel on our first night, it was completely empty & now we know why. Fine dining it is not. Paying £37 for 3 tiny lamb cutlets & it coming with chunky chips is not fine. The burgers were lovely but certainly not worth £25, didnt even come with a bit of salad! We ate in the relaxed bar by the pool the rest of the time which was much more relaxed. The pool & jacuzzi are lovely, theres a sauna & steam room too but unfortunately it was closed one of the days we were there which was disappointing. The bar staff were great, quick to be served. Breakfast buffet had a huge selection & tasted lovely but we had to wait to be seated each day as the staff were mostly down in the seating area
