It's an older property but it checks out. Had some issues with the toilet and in order for the power to stay on in the room you have to leave key card inserted in slot near door, but otherwise a generally pleasant stay. Great restaurant/bar, good food, great staff.

They really need to up their customer experience by providing aome basics, like bottled water, instead of assuming that everyone would take water from the tap.

Courteney

The staff were friendly but away from the desk a lot of the time. The room was extremely cold at night and we couldn’t turn up the heating as it was controlled by staff (who we couldn’t find). No under floor heating despite it being stated. Comfy bed and clean room though with easy parking outside.

This hotel is located about a 20 mins walk to Broad Street and the Utilita Arena so ideal if going to an event there. Hotel is clean, the staff are very welcoming and helpful. Room was clean & comfortable. Breakfast was lovely, with plenty of choice - cooked breakfast, cereals, fruit, yoghurt, pastries & toast plus some other options available on the menu. The buffet was regularly replenished. Would consider staying again if we book tickets for an event in the future.

Plates. Came. Eggs. Which went cold as took at least 15 mins for 4 slices of bacon between myself and partner. Breakfast area should always. Have the food regardless of the time. I kept asking the waitress how long for the bacon. Not good at all

It was a good stay. Reception staff helpful and room good. No bottled water in the room was a surprise. The restaurant was for breakfast only and the expectation was that you would order food in. The location was convenient for me and I’d stay there again.

Good traditional hotel
Good hotel at reasonable price just outside city centre. Large comfortable and clean bedroom with good facilities. Very good cooked and continental breakfast. Only downside was the hotel has no lift and quite a long walk from reception to bedroom up stairs and winding corridors. We did get lost on one occasion

Honest review on one night stay
Just returned from 1 night stay. From the outside, and when being in reception it looks lovely... but then once in the room they are super outdated and in quite a poor state. The whole bedroom, bathroom ect was just really poor quality and obviously in desperate need of a revamp. Beds were like rocks, linen had marks. Breakfast was okay. Not much to say on that. Staff - reception lady was pleasant, but on checking in we waited for a man to appear for about 20 mins with 2 tired children who had been walking all day , without so much as a "sorry for your wait" We was then told by the man that we had to pay £10 for parking - was not aware of this and no idea what justifies this as the carpark was near empty. Wouldnt stay again.
