Pamela, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

We regularly stay here because of the spa, the breakfasts, the dining options in the evening & ease of parking. The staff are polite, friendly and efficient. The new pancake machine at breakfast is a good addition.
Kareen, 2-night trip

4/10 Poor

Old, well worn and with hidden costs like paid parking even though the hotel is well out of the city with its own large parking lot. Cheap but not cheap enough to stay again.
Jeff, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Excellent service, fab hotel & catering. Only area that could have been improved was the lack of good coffee with breakfast
Emma Louise, 1-night trip

4/10 Poor

Not a great stay. Paid for early check in only to be told our room wasnt ready! Then tried to chsrge me for breakfast when i had already included it. Were woken up numerous times by loud guest in a nesrby room. Woke up to vomit all over the corridor outside our room. Wont be back
Stewart, 1-night trip

6/10 Okay

Hotel quite dated now, especially rooms. Large car park which you get charged for if you don't book direct with the hotel, so worth noting. Also, can be quite noisey especially during school holidays when lots of families running up and down corridors.
Lianne, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Excellent hotel with a few minor complaints

Cannot fault my stay here. Very nice check in friendly staff, nice bar area, excellent gym and pool/sauna. Just a very nice feel to the place. My only gripe would be having to pay for parking although only £3 if you booked direct through the hotel there was no charge. Seems unfair. And also very limited 0% alcohol selection in the bar. I will definitely be staying here again though.
Chris, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Great location ample parking large clean spacious rooms good food friendly staff all in all a good choice would definitely stay again
Stephen, 2-night trip

8/10 Good

No wash rags and had to pay to parking
Tomaro, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

They had a elevator, that was nice. You have to reserve you time to use the pool/spa area. The restaurant was good. Overall the services were normal but impersonal just like many larger hotels (I normally choose smaller places but went with this one for the use of the hot tub/ pool that I didnt end up getting to use) Good tea and coffee selection. Comfortable bed, bathtub had a few paint splatters
Jamie, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

All ok apart from only a coffee maker in room with tiny coffee mugs and I hate coffee
I, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Think paying for parking is a little much considering your staying at the hotel.
