Stayed for one night after attending a function in the ballroom. The Reception was welcoming and my room, although a little dated, was more than adequate. There was a tea/coffee making facility, ample storage and table surfaces for make-up and purses etc. The bathroom had a shower over the bath, was clean and had beautiful fluffy white towels. As with... More

My parents and I stayed 2 nights here. They kindly let us book in early, as my parents were quite elderly and made one room available. My single room was comfortable and clean, large bright bathroom, but dark dated furniture. Double room dark and dated too but clean. TVs dated and changers held together with black tape. The dining room... More

On arrival to the hotel we were told that parking will be limited and that it was on a first comes first serve basis. Thankfully, we found a parking space as we arrived before the check in time. There were no signs as to how much the parking would cost. After queuing for a number of minutes (a coachful of... More

My boyfriend and I booked this room so we could have some fun together.....and oh...,how we laughed....!!!! As you walk into reception you can be forgiven for thinking you've entered an old peoples home..... and its not just the smell or the industrial sized wheel-chair stair lifts that leads you to that conclusion. The room was very dated...the furniture,the curtains,the... More

Just horrible. From arrival where they had conveniently lost our deposit, to the lifts not working (people with mobility issues would have no chance), tired and faded rooms, dreadful service - bar staff, in particular, were clueless and no supervision. Ran out of meat at the carvery, probably breaking all sorts of environmental health rules with food presentation - no... More

Four of us stayed for one night in a family room and we fully expected to be in just one room. We were pleasantly suprised to find a double room and second room with twin beds with bathroom inbetween the two rooms. All bedding and towels etc were spotless and furnishings quite acceptable for the price we paid which was... More

we enjoyed our stay, the bedroom was beautifully furnished throughout and comfortable but the noise directly above the room was totally unacceptable and went on untill 2 am. this is our second visit to the hotel and if we return again we definitely not want to be in the basement.
