No Access To Room!
A poor experience due to room access not working. I went back and forth to reception at least 4 times and quite late but the entry key system had failed and so in the end I had to be let into my room with a physical master key and was left without a working card entry system. In the morning, the main hotel door was also not working! The got in duty said he would seek a discount for me and I believe some compensation on the rate that I paid would be a reasonable thing to do. So far, no contact or confirmation of any refund from the staff since my stay…

Not enough bar and restaurant staff, only one barman serving 30 people, and he was running the food out as well. Needs more staff , one dedicated to running food and table service, and one bar person , as a bare minimum. Hotel has been done up nicely awaiting to be an IHG hotel.

Ample free parking; friendly staff; poor room facilities. TV did not work even with remote replaced. Shower leaked through glass screen. Only one bath & hand towel left for 2 adults; bathroom basin did not drain well. Room very dark with poor lighting even with lamps. Need of repaint and decoration. Chef ill so restaurant closed. Only one night stay so didn’t pursue complaining.

Plenty of parking, pleasant reception, easy check in experience. Lift not working during our visit. Our room was clean, and had an iron, hairdryer and kettle. Unfortunately the only full length mirror was cracked from one side to the other and taped, one of the hand towels was really badly stained and the bottom of the bathroom door and architrave had peeling paint. Restaurant area was very plush and clean. Breakfast was buffet style with basic options, hash browns chewy from being kept warm, coffee lukewarm. We purchased coffee from the bar the previous afternoon and this was good, served by a friendly member of Staff. We had an enjoyable stay here and would recommend the Hotel.

We stayed here one night, Staff were helpful, there were one or two issues which could have been attended to in the room before we arrived e.g kettle leaked, curtain hanging off hooks, soap dispenser in the bathroom not working. Even though our stay was in August it was colder outside than expected for the time of year and was not particularly warm in the room and there was no heating at all in the room. Food was good but very limited menu. The lounge area and dining area were comfortable, the room was clean but felt there were one or two things which could have been dealt with before arrival.

It was a comfortable stay. The room was clean but some redecoration needed. The food in the restaurant was limited in the evening with no real healthy options and we waited a while though an apology was offered. The breakfast buffet had limited options unless a cooked breakfast was offered, and as we were eating at the start of the last hour of service some of the food options must have been there a while. All the staff were very friendly, helpful and polite. There were plenty of car park spaces. We would stay again if we needed to, and would recommend to others depending on requirements.

The lift wasn't working, we were on the top floor. Lots of stairs and much to carry from the car. The staff when we checked in helped to carry some of the gear to the room but the staff in the morning, despite being asked, didn't help until all but some jackets had been carried down the stairs. Really quite annoying and disappointing.

Modern if characterless hotel where everything is just nice, nothing outstanding. Dinner was order at the bar from a limited menu but food was good, service less so with only one guy doing everything. He was less-than-content and let it show. Room was cold but otherwise comfortable, with everything I needed for 1 night. In a word: adequate.
