This property is not what you think when you think radisson it’s not very clean very dated the rooms need updating if your used to 4* this isn’t it I would recommend booking else where. It says it has parking but the parking isn’t just for hotel guest and you can’t reserve so there is no guarantee that you will get parking. I booked this hotel as it said there was parking but when I got there the cr park was full as they had an event there and the event attendees took the parking so the hotel guest were unable to use. Overall terrible expense. I hear the parkgate is a better hotel

Clean and comfortable
Hotel is overall a very welcoming and comfortable place to stay. The room was clean and the bathroom was in good condition. The only let down was the curtains and a ‘knock’ on the wall which wasn’t repaired very well - the blackout curtains were coming off the curtain hooks and looking very shabby. The ‘knock’ was given a temporary fix of a clear plastic filler which was coming off and not very pleasant to see. The walls themselves were looking a little grubby and in need of a freshen up.

Standard room reasonable facilities. However, started on the wrong note when we arrived just after 2pm, were told our room was ready but if we wanted to check in there would be a £10 extra charge. Why? It didn’t cost the hotel anything to allow us to check in at that time as room was already ready. Put us off straight away before we even got into the room.

It’s quite a cold hotel and I was up on the 18th floor on my own which was a bit scary, also the lights only come on in the halls when you step in there.
