6/10 Good

Very clean room, overall the hotel needs a refresh

Very clean room, very professional staff, good price. The paintwork throughout the hotel needs to be refreshed, and possibly the carpets. There was also a sporadic smell of drains from the bathroom
1-night trip

6/10 Good

Comfortable bed, decent size room but for the price it feels very tired , a bit worn as a hotel , tea and coffee provided but again for the price it is missing some finer details, better room decor, need biscuits with drinks . And maybe bottled water? , just a bit basic and defo not worth the price unfortunately.
Clare, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

A comfortable stay, clean, good size room , great for a one night stay.

A great experience

Great positive experience. The room was every thing I needed and the staff were very helpful. It was great to have the spa next door which is why I came to this hotel
Bev, 2-night trip

Staff were really friendly and helpful.
Samantha, 1-night trip

Receptionist very friendly and helpful. Local buses regular and easy to use. Powerful shower.

Andrew, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

A very comfortable, clean, and quiet room.Staff brilliant. Plenty of car parking. Our only suggestion would be to review the breakfast arrangements - for example - a buffet breakfast in the hotel rather than the current system at the adjacent spa.
Virginia, 4-night trip

6/10 Good

OK but noisy

Hotel was clean. Nice shower gel and shampoo. Room was spacious. No air conditioning. With window open for air the room was noisy from the traffic until around midnight! Not ideal. Our room 39 had a very musty smell in bathroom. Imagine had had water issues in past.
Susan, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Good hotel.
IAN, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Clean and comfortable

Room and everything in it was clean. There was a smell of stale smoke in the room when we arrived. We mentioned it at reception on our way out and receptionist said she'd get some airfreshioner. Smell wasn't so noticeable when we came back in later. Bed was comfortable
Mary, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

A bit worn out and expensive

The hotel is a touch worn down. I booked mainly to use the Gym. If you book through a 3rd party there is a charge of £15 per session to use the gym. A small charge would be acceptable but that’s ridiculous.
Andrew, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Staff were very friendly and helpful. Breakfast in the health club was decent. No frills but basics done well.
Lesley, 1-night trip

Lovely staff / very welcoming.

6/10 Good

Tired & Soulless Hotel

The hotel was quite tired and soulless. All the amenities (even restaurant )were across the car park at the adjacent heath club. Hotels.com gave the impression that use of the health club facilities were free, but there was a £15 charge. The reception admitted that this was well hidden on the Hotels.com site. The WiFi was non-existent. I could connect with the server, but it said that the server wasn’t connected to the internet. All in all, pretty below average. Also, after asking for my invoice, I found out that I could have saved £15 by booking direct with the hotel rather than using Hotels.com
Paul, 1-night trip

A few issues

No sign showing where reception is. Smell of drains in room. Toilet flush not very effective. Untidy wires hanging from tv.

8/10 Very good

Good hotel,just very disappointed in terms of having to pay an additional £15 to use the gym facilities as when I booked it I always use the gym included filter for my bookings,not sure who’s at fault here the hotel or hotels.com,the hotel told me it was because I didn’t book directly with them ☹️☹️☹️
Tom, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Two night stay rooms were very nice clean.food in the health spa wasn’t great so ate out rather than on site
Dale, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

Hotel presentation did not live up to expectations comparing website vs reality, no mention of charges for the gym, until you receive the confirmation email
