Our room was very comfortable with everything you need including,tea and coffee making facilities, hair dryer,trouser press, toiletries in the bathroom inc tissues, the room was a very good size and it was clean....

I stayed in the Brittania Hotel again this weekend, about the 4th time in the last 4 years. It is the last time. The place is very dirty. You enter through grimy glass doors that scrape along the floor, the carpets are dirty, the lift is dirty, everywhere you look there are broken, neglected fittings, curtains hanging off hooks. I...

I stayed here for a cheap place when I was going to a wedding. It was cheap however, still disappointing. The room stunk of smoke. The wall paper was coming off the wall. The sheets were literally worn out. There were people running up and down the corridor all night long. You could hear everything. I was shocked at how... More

Stayed here for one night on business. The location is good for the city centre. Overall the rooms are spacious and clean, but the decor is very dated. As with most of the Brittania's the lobby is quite grand, but this is the only area that the hotels seem to spend money in. Not bad value for money though as... More

After reading mixed reviews before staying at the Britannia, I wasn't sure what to expect. Stayed here for business; 2 nights with breakfast. Let me explain why you should avoid this hotel. 1) My room - Peeling wallpaper, grotty and dirty windows, stains on the carpets. Telly doesn't work properly and the hairdryer looked melted - can't be safe!! My... More

Like a lot of people, I have spent a week at this hotel as part of a coach party. The cost of my holiday worked out at £30.00 per day - this included accommodation, trips and food. For this cost I think that the value was great. Yes - the hotel is tired and the food is not hote cuisine... More

Nothing was quite up to standard. Everything was there but drastically ready for smartening up. Staff were ok but definitely not of the friendly nature. Toilet handle was loose but worked effectively. Toilet roll holder was broken so rolls just left on side. Television was dated and only had ten channels, poor for this day and age when even freeview... More

Oh dear, Britannia what a let down. We have stayed in your hotels in most major cities but Coventry is by far the worst. The only good thing is the location and the convenience of being next to the coach station. The windows are filthy and the net curtains have not been washed for years. Bedding and towels were ok...
