Lovely hotel, thankfully they were able to accommodate a large party. The rooms were very clean…read moreand provided the basics needed for an overnight stay. The have free wifi and a super fast connection which there is an extra charge. They have a standard buffet breakfast for £8.99. The breakfast was okay, it's not five star dining but it definitely fills the gap. The staff are just so lovely. They accommodated all of our requests made us feel comfortable whilst traveling with many children. Because it was the new year, we were treated to complimentary bottle of Prosecco and the children got treats and books. April is the manager at this location and she was brilliant. She was very warm and kind. To be honest, she made our stay feel as close to home as it could. I'm very appreciative of April and her staff's hard work! Excellent!

Booked online as this was one of two hotels in town. The hotel was pretty basic but had everything…read moreand all the essentials needed for our stay. Located next to High Street we were able to walk to all the restaurants, bars and pubs. Which is always a plus!!! When booking online there are options to add a breakfast but I choose not to. We did try the breakfast twice during our stay and it was ok. There were the traditional British breakfast choices. Bacon, Sausage, Eggs, baked Beans, toast, mushrooms and tomato (which I'm a huge fan of). There was also yogurt, cereal and fruit which was a good addition. From all the breakfast choices, unlimited juices (orange, cranberry, grapefruit and apple) I was most excited about the automatic self serve coffee maker! This coffee maker was impressive and made espressos, americanos, cappuccinos, white coffees and lattes in one touch! This American definitely was not searching around town for a Starbucks because of this machine!

The breakfastroom is rpretty dark, the promised fruits are given only on demand and the yoghurt I got was 7 days past its best-before-end. The Wifi cost an additional 5£ for the stay. Alltogether we wouldn't have complained if it would have costed below 50£ per night, but 70£ for the night is definitely not worth the stay!!! 1* out of 5.

Randomness defined!…read more The usual sterile pricy experience of a holiday inn without complimentary internet, but with added randomness... A large rum and cola can come as; 2x25ml, 1x35ml, 2x35ml, the cola can be charged as one dash or two, ice ran out at 1900 on a wednesday (and apparently not enough staff to buy a topup from the superstore down the road) Steak on one night superbly cooked and tasty, but presented poorly with tolerable sides. On the other night the steak was poorly cooked but presented very well with tasty sides. Room was a twin when I expected a double, towels scratchy and overdue for replacement, shower hot and powerful enough but leaked water badly out the head. The friendly staff who were willing to try hard to please, even though somewhat undertrained, managed to wrestled this back to a three star rating. Your experience(s) may vary!

The starters had not been replenished. Members of staff seemed to be helping themselves to food and taking into the kitchen while one guest was waiting for crumble and custard and member of staff dish herself some up using custard for herself. Also a member of table staff carved herself some meat without gloves. Puting gravy on and taking it into the kitchen. Should this not be done in their own breaks not when the are meant to be looking after paying customers.

We were both really disappointed with our day, so we were only there for about an hour before making the 45 minute journey home! Admittedly we did get a voucher from Living Social so we shouldn't have expected much! All we got was a swimming pool that was pretty cold, a steam room and a sauna. I wouldn't class this as a spa! We tried to book treatments a week before to be told it was fully booked, and when we got there all treatment rooms were empty, and the staff were just wandering. The best bit of the day was the plate of pastries we got with our voucher, although we didn't get them with our drinks, and had to chase for them! The bar where we had our lunch was filled with wedding guests, and children darting around and rolling around the floor. Not somewhere I'd be returning!
