I recently booked an evening's dining for my 30th birthday and was not disappointed. They were so accomodating about all my requests and when I arrived, everything was exactly how I had asked for it to be. On top of that I was gobsmacked by how reasonable the cost was for somewhere so plush. My friends were so impressed and... More

We were met with a very warm welcome by owner Terry and staff as we arrived into the boutique style hotel nestled away in the village of Leek. The decor is very stylish and chic in its appeal. The bedrooms are decorated beautifully with exposed brick walls as a feature plus a stunning roll top bath n the designer bathroom.... More

Whilst I surfed the wowcher page, I came across a deal for a secret cinema deal with this hotel. It was ideal because, firstly it was cheap and my best friend lives in Leek so I thought, it would be great night out for us. When we arrived, we were a little confused whether we were suppose to go into... More

We stayed here for a wedding at The Ashes Venue close-by. When we turned up at midday our rooms were not ready so had to get ready in the bar area. We had not realised an early check-in is before 2pm... which we needed to book in advance. We have a little baby who needed to sleep at 8pm ish,... More

We are very sorry to hear that you had issues with your stay, but 2pm check in is standard at most hotels unless a request is made, our check out time is 11.am, this gives our staff only 3 hours to get all the rooms turned around for new guests, it was unfortunate that your room was the last one...

I went with three other friends for the secret cinema experience. On arrival we were promptly met by the manager and bar staff. They were really friendly and attentive. The bar area was decorated in a boutique style which really suited the style of the building. We ordered our cocktails and watched while the barmaid made them. The manager chatted... More

This is a beautiful hotel with such character and uniqueness it doesn't quite compare to another hotel in this area. The rooms are 7 very different boutigue 4* luxuries with lushious roll tap baths and stunning 4 poster beds. I quite often stay here when working in Leek and always enjoy my stay. There are so many aspects to the... More

Lovely atmosphere, the tapas restaurant is in the wine cellar! Staff are very happy and very attentiv although it was very quiet when we were there. Tapas is very tasty. The best Brownie I have ever tasted!!! Only downside is it's quite pricey, over £40 for tapas 4 2 and 2 drinks.

We stayed here on the way to a day at Aton Towers which is approx a 20 minute drive away. Leek itself is rather bleak but the owner of this hotel certainly has a good head for business. The basement is a tapas bar, food excellent quality good atmosphere, great service, good prices. The ground floor is a bar which... More

We booked the whole hotel for two nights on Friday and Saturday over the weekend of our wedding. The Friday night was a chance for family and friends to get together for a meal the day before the wedding. A three course meal was organised for 17 guests and 5 more staying locally, it was a lovely meal and we... More
