Good location
The hotel is in a good location. The bed was comfy and bathroom clean. Fairly standard accommodation but staff were friendly
Diane, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Clean place for a stopover
It was an ok stay. The family room was massive which the kids loved, everything was just a bit tired and dated but clean which is the main thing. Breakfast was poor. Continental option was limited to say the least and the cooked to order option left something to be desired. Staff were pleasant enough and it was fine for a motorway stop but save your money on breakfast!
Lindsay, 2-night trip

4/10 Fair

A far cry from 4*
A last minute stay for us but not the 4* as advertised. Paper coming off the ceiling, someone else’s hair on our bathroom floor, Poor lighting in the bedroom, and wall so thin we could hear our neighbours snoring

Cheap so what do you expect
Certainly not a 4 star. Struggling to make it a 3 star. Staff were good. Food was ok. Heating in room didn't work. Shower could do with a spray of mould killer. It was difficult to change channels on the TV. Kept jumping channels. Curtains were ancient.

Beautiful hotel with a river view and very comftable
Ann, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Not accessible and overbooked family room
Booked a family room as travelling with my husband and 2 young kids. Arrived to check in to be told there were no family rooms available because others had booked and already checked in, so instead we were given 2 separate rooms which wasn’t ideal given we had 2 small kids. After receiving the keys, we went to find the lift given we had a pushchair with our youngest, only to find to get to the lift you need to go downstairs… made zero logical sense and not very accessible at all.
Alison, 1-night trip

Denise, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

Wouldn’t say it’s 4 star
Car park is chargeable, receptionist smelled bad. Kevin that works in the bar great service from him, but he definitely has frustrations with his ‘lacking’ colleagues. Poor ambience in bar, no music/no tvs, Could hear a pin drop. Walls crumbling in the bar. 4 star hotel, didn’t even have dental Kits, hair in the room bathroom/bed made poorly/pillow covers dirty/pillow covers didn’t fit pillow/carpet stained/corridors smelled/rooms dated/poor route signage to ground floor rooms/poor/slow service from other bar staff/just about hot water. Food was decent, but then again I was hungry. Over all I’d be more inclined to stay in another hotel in the area.

10/10 Exceptional

Very nice hotel, room was nice and I had a nice view in the morning. Not far down the road to a good range of takeaway options and breakfast was good.
Charles, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

A Basic hotel with lots of space in the room. The hotel and attached restaurant is a dog friendly place which was helpful., I wish Hotels.com would say that the extra fee the dog would be 15 quid. It would be nice to know this upfront. It would be nice to know up front that the parking fee would be 5 quid in addition. By the time we checked in it was too late (dark outside) to consider anything else. The attached restaurant offered a pretty hefty price for what was a very basic - almost sub-par burger.
