Another Wetherspoons pub that is well worth a visit. It is being redecorated at this time which is good as it is a bit dark in there. We have been there many times and the staff are always excellent and the food very nicely cooked and the beers, SUPERB. I had fish & chips served with garden peas and my... More

Stayed for 3 nights last week in a newly refurbed room. Very large comfortable bed, large room and everything spotless. What's more it was very quiet - just what we like. The Wetherspoons was fairly busy but not noisy, and good service. Location is great - close to all amenities. Excellent value for money.

Hi, thanks for review of the King's Highway from June 2012. I'm sorry you dodn't receive a reply if you ever have any issues the best thing is to talk to our customer services team if you feel the pub tea weren't helpful.

Stayed in this hotel on two separate nights last week. First night in a lovely room, king size bed, super shower, clean and spacious and obviously one of the newly refurbed rooms. Second night in what can only be described as a dire excuse for a hotel room. It was cramped dingy and the bathroom was a horrible tired space.... More

Thanks for taking the time to write a review about the King's Highway. We often get a complaint about the fans. It's difficult to source the noise directly as there are our own fans which are near the 1st floor, the fans from the neighbouring hotel and our cellar fans which are a distance away form the 1st floor.

I stay at this hotel for business & pleasure a few times a year, while also using other local hotels. We were here for 2 days at new year, so the city centre location was important to us, having everything we needed within walking distance. Some local hotels would have cost us more than £100 more for the 2 nights,... More

Veuve Clquot was a one off, our standard champagne for this offer is Moet Chandon-not a bad alternative. Anyway, we have a major refurbishment underway and if you are back next new year... More
