Cathy, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Loved our stay.

Stayed here to go to Victorious. The air con wasn’t working but we were supplied with water and free ice cream! Luckily it wasn’t as hot as it had been and the lack of air con wasn’t a problem. We very rarely use it anyway. The free breakfast was excellent. We have been spoilt and hubby wants to stay there again next year. Loved the surrounding areas and the 10% discount to use at All Bar One and outlet shops.
Jeanette, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Comfortable clean & tidy.

My first stay at Gunwharf Holiday Inn. Lovely cozy hotel. Close to all restaurants, railway station and outlet shopping. Hotel was clean, neat and tidy. The air conditioning wasn’t working but the staff accommodated us with 3 table fans . The weather was quite pleasant, so didn’t mind the air conditioning not working. Breakfast options were very good too. Will definitely be visiting the hotel in the summer.
