I recently went here for an event related to work, so you might say I wasn't there of my own free will! That's not to say I wouldn't go there normally, but it was just one of those places I hadn't got round to seeing yet.
From the outside it seems like a normal bog-standard sort-of-near-the-airport hotel and that's kind of what it is, but it has a certain pride about itself and it's well looked after and rather inviting inside, I have to admit. The staff are friendly and pleasant, in particular the woman on reception, who was very helpful. The room we were in was the right temperature and well laid out (might sound silly to comment on that but I've been to many events in hotels where the rooms have either been freezing or too warm, and laid out in a manner so you can't see what's going on).
The food at lunchtime was gorgeous. Really nice. There was a choice of lasagne, chicken in white wine and cream sauce, rice and potatoes, or chips, salad and roast beef with all the associated trimmings. The desserts that came past after the main looked lovely (I was being good that day) and my fellow colleagues enthused about them! I know people who come here for the Sunday Carvery. I might join them next time. read more
