The room is updated, clean and seems well looked after and well presented. Nothing fancy yet smart and comfortable. The hotel was pretty much full but didn't seem loud or noisy around here. The mattress was very comfortable albeit the pillows were all soft and didn't provide enough support for my tricky neck( I know... I'm one of those who collects pillows as always wake up with a stiff or sore neck). Gym:is small but functional. I got up for an early run but one treadmill was out of order and the other in use so I settled for a little static bike ride (at least I moved a bit before breakfast!). Breakfast was very good for the hotel price range, I had some eggs, a piece of toast and banana with yogurt. There was much more selection than that though!, sweet pastries, more fruits, cereals, hot food and you could make your own waffles! (I thought that was cute but I resisted the urge... Not on holiday, couldn't justify it ). I didn't have dinner at the hotel as the selection was lacking. But I'm glad I walked to the sushi place around the corner instead. Will definitely like to come back while on business trip.

This was sorted although it took us to contact them several times to do it.

Imagine staying in a city hotel, close to the centre but with a lake in the grounds. Impossible?…read moreNo, I stayed at the Kenwood Hall Hotel in Sheffield, as it is now known recently and although I had walked past the entrance many times when I was younger I didn't realise what lay behind the gates. The original gates are now closed and a larger entrance is just up the next road, there is plenty of parking and even room for a bus! The original hall is still used but the more modern building has been sympathetically designed to fit in with the older building. The 12 acres of parkland including the lake gives the hotel a restful feeling, and we were lucky enough to have good weather and enjoyed a walk around watching the squirrels and the ducks. There were seats and tables outside and even in September it was warm enough to enjoy a drink in the sun. This is also a conference centre and has several rooms for meetings and parties and dedicated staff who deal with this side of the hotel. Once a Swallow hotel, it changed to Marriott but now is part of the Principal Hayley group. As we walked in to Reception we were immediately welcomed and registration was quickly dealt with. The reception often had two members of staff dealing with guests, and although we didn't need help with our case it was offered. There was plenty of seating in the reception and adjoining bar area, stairs led up to function rooms and lifts were through the swing doors. It was modern and very clean. Altogether 110 rooms, I was lucky enough to have a room overlooking the garden and lake. There were six in our party so I got to see 3 rooms and although the twins were similar the double was more like a suite with separate lounge area, and large armchairs. 18/10 Restaurant - Sheffield is famous for steel and the name of the restaurant is taken from a type of Stainless steel. We booked a table but although the hotel was quite full it wasn't too busy. Service was quite good and we had a little time between courses which if I'm not in a rush I like. At both ends of the room was a small raised area with a few tables which allowed a larger group to be away from the main dining room. The restaurant was also used for breakfast and then had a buffet set up behind the table area. There was a choice of cereals, plenty of fresh fruits, yogurt, fruit juices, cold meat and cheeses, plenty of hot dishes, bread, rolls, Danish pastries and waffles made to order. Small jars of jam and marmalade were already on the tables as was milk, and pots of tea or cafetierres of coffee were left on the table to help yourself. We ate in the Lounge bar on our second night as we only needed a light meal, there was a choice of various sandwiches, served with crisps and salad from about £6.25, Quesadillas, Classic Burgers with fries etc. Wine was £5.20 a glass, beer £3.30 a pint and Coke £2.35. The only difficulty was there wasn't enough room to put all our plates on the table but our knees worked OK! For guests who like to be active there was a small pool and Jacuzzi and a small gym with weights and cardiovascular section. Also a Spa, but I'm afraid there wasn't time to sample this. It did seem to be well used though. We paid £75 per person for the two nights for bed and breakfast, it is advertised as £79 per double room but offers are available, and you can get a reduction for online booking. A great place to stay in Sheffield, because it is quite close to the city and the shops, museums, theatre etc, but with plenty of parking. Excellent food and beautiful surroundings. Where else can you stay in a city and listen to an owl hooting at night and be woken by a cockerel in the morning?

The lounge has two plasma screens for watching the footie but there is also another room upstairs which has two big screens and another small bar. This room can get very busy for the big matches, but this helps to create a great atmosphere. There is a nice beer garden to the rear of the pub, also with a plasma screen, which is great for watching sport in the summer and there is a heated smoking area The range of drinks are pretty standard, prices are reasonable and there is a friendly atmosphere. It's a must for sport fans, but also a decent pub to go to just for a drink and a chat.

This is a Premier Inn hotel on the fringe of Sheffield's city centre surrounded by lots of local…read moreamenities (supermarkets, discount stores, banks, restaurants, etc) and in a close proximity to tram and bus stops. I stayed here over the course of 2 weeks on business. During my stay I have a walk around the area and I found many jobless youth standing outside the nearby Job Centre in the day and homeless people roaming the streets in the night. Premier Inn hotels pride themselves with guaranteeing quality sleep. This by offering comfy beds and quality sound isolation. The beds were comfortable. Nevertheless, the sound isolation wasn't up to the standard of the rest of Premier Inn hotels that I stayed in previously. Traffic noise, especially buses, found its way to leak into the rooms and Exhaust fans were noisy. Also, you could here footsteps coming from the corridor. This will be problematic if your neighbouring guests were party animals. The staff were cheerful and respectful. They didn't hesitate to offer help. I parked my hire car in the NCP car park to the rear of the hotel at a 50% discounted rate for being an Premier Inn guest. I enjoyed my stay in this Premier Inn. I hope they can upgrade the noise isolation. I recommend it for business guests who would like to have a place to do work in the area.

The hotel is ideally situated with just a short walk - or tram ride to both the City Hall and the main shopping areas. The hotel itself includes a resturant and bar, and lots of floors for accomodation. We only stayed one night, but it was clean, comfortable and cannot be faulted, other than a quick comment on the price - top end for Premier Inn outside of London. Still as a city centre hotel, its not massively overpriced, and the atmosphere is welcoming throughout.

So, our annual pilgrimage to Sheffield once again occurred this weekend. Every year a lovely bunch…read moreof goffick type descend on the City to listen to loud music as played by artists who come from all over the world to tout their aural wares. This was our fourth visit to this festival, but we have stayed in a couple of different hotels over the 4 years. The first couple of years we stayed in St Mary's Gate Premier Inn. Now, as Prem's go, this is quite a nice one... however... It's a Premier Inn (so you know exactly what you're getting). The last couple of years the hotel seemed to twig that something was going on and put up their prices to make the stay really blinkin' expensive (and thus worth us looking elsewhere). A quick search on the internet turned up the Copthorne Hotel. About a 10 minute walk away from the venue, free parking, free wifi and 4*. It was also a good £100 less than the alternative, so we booked without doing much research. Oh My.... What a find. The Hotel chain in the UK is mostly made up for 4* and 5* hotels which are located in most of the big cities you would expect them to be. When we checked into the room the first time, we were very pleasantly surprised. Spacious, modern, clean and comfortable. There is a fridge in every room and steam-proof mirrors in the bathroom (a lifesaver at a festival). The bed is mega comfortable and the all of the rooms are soundproofed as well (meaning you're not woken up by various people stumbling in in the wee small hours of the night). The staff are really professional and friendly. They've never once treated us any differently to the other guests when we've turned up in our "going out" gear and have always been extremely helpful when we've had any requests as per the room or facilities. Our stay over bank holiday weekend (Friday, Saturday and Sunday) cost us £154 without Breakfast (but other guests scored the stay for £103). It will forever now be our go-to booking for visits to Sheffield.

The nicest hotel I've ever stayed at in the UK…read more I wasn't expecting much as we got the room at a very cheap deal, so I was amazed to find a very modern, posh and well run hotel ! The rooms are amazing, with free internet, very modern decoration, a hidden fridge, kettle and large flat screen TV with all the sky sports channels. The bed was very comfortable. The bar and restaurant couldn't be faulted and the staff were nice and helpful. And to cap it all it's attached to Sheffield Uniteds football ground, there is plenty of car parking room and the hotel is only a short walk from the city centre. I would definitely use this hotel again.
