Pretty poor really
We booked months in advance with Hotels.com When we arrived there was no booking details for us! So they created a booking - just a good job it wasn’t full otherwise what would we do? Then there was no heating on in the room, and the shower was cold! The bed was uncomfortable and then in the morning we arrived for breakfast in plenty of time but they were only taking orders and no buffet breakfast available! Sadly, pretty poor all round for a booking made well in advance!

No Access To Room!
A poor experience due to room access not working. I went back and forth to reception at least 4 times and quite late but the entry key system had failed and so in the end I had to be let into my room with a physical master key and was left without a working card entry system. In the morning, the main hotel door was also not working! The got in duty said he would seek a discount for me and I believe some compensation on the rate that I paid would be a reasonable thing to do. So far, no contact or confirmation of any refund from the staff since my stay…

Not enough bar and restaurant staff, only one barman serving 30 people, and he was running the food out as well. Needs more staff , one dedicated to running food and table service, and one bar person , as a bare minimum. Hotel has been done up nicely awaiting to be an IHG hotel.

Ample free parking; friendly staff; poor room facilities. TV did not work even with remote replaced. Shower leaked through glass screen. Only one bath & hand towel left for 2 adults; bathroom basin did not drain well. Room very dark with poor lighting even with lamps. Need of repaint and decoration. Chef ill so restaurant closed. Only one night stay so didn’t pursue complaining.

Plenty of parking, pleasant reception, easy check in experience. Lift not working during our visit. Our room was clean, and had an iron, hairdryer and kettle. Unfortunately the only full length mirror was cracked from one side to the other and taped, one of the hand towels was really badly stained and the bottom of the bathroom door and architrave had peeling paint. Restaurant area was very plush and clean. Breakfast was buffet style with basic options, hash browns chewy from being kept warm, coffee lukewarm. We purchased coffee from the bar the previous afternoon and this was good, served by a friendly member of Staff. We had an enjoyable stay here and would recommend the Hotel.
