We had a pleasant 2-night stay at Ibis, which offered a good balance between price and proximity to the city centre (about a 25-minute walk). The staff were friendly and helpful—special thanks to Jordan for the great service and tips! The room was small, and the poorly built in-room toilet lacked sound isolation, but everything was clean and the bed was comfortable. Breakfast was decent, with enough variety to start the day. The location was also convenient, with shops, restaurants, and supermarkets nearby.

Lovely hotel, great location.

Hotel itself was lovely. Great location and was perfect for the event I attended.! Check-in was smooth, and was allowed to check in early which was fantastic. Sadly found the bed far too hard so didn't sleep well at all, and had shoulder ache from it! Overall happy with stay but thought it a little overpriced compared to other hotels in immediate area. lovely bar next to it, and sainsburys/greggs also next door for any last minute supplies/breakfast if not booked at hotel.

mixed review this time.

The hotel is in a convenient place as I was taking rail trips to nearby places. I've stayed there before recently and my stay was great (which is why I went back). This timne felt like harder work. There was often a log jam at reception, which made check in and even asking questions really slow. The wifi went down and it was impossible to get an answer about it - I gave up. The wall mechanism on my toilet was also malfunctioning. I reported it at check out to someone on my floor and was told it happens alot!
