Good
All reviews shown are from real guest experiences. Only travelers who have booked a stay with us can submit a review. We verify reviews according to our guidelines and publish all reviews, positive or negative.
The Bar & Restaurant had been closed since January 2025,
so couldn't have a meal or a drink . Had to walk to another hotel down the road. Won't be staying at this hotel again.
When we travel to St. Helens/Widnes we will only stay at this hotel as the staff are great and couldn't ask for anything better.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, room comfort
Suprise visit to see family
Was ok. You can see what they are trying to do with the upgrades but bathrooms were still to be done and bedroom smelled of smoke as the perspn before had been smoking. Ash all over the windowsill where they had been hanging out. Main part of the hotel was nice but might off been better to close and do the refurb rather than have people staying.

Disliked: Cleanliness
We were particularly disappointed with our room. The bathroom had cracked and broken tiles, towel rail torn from the wall, extract fan not working etc. The single beds were the smallest single beds I have ever experienced, dressing table was very badly stained, chair was covered in crumbs or particles of whatever, decor extremely poor, tv had only one channel we could access. For the costs charged we would have expected a much higher standard
