United Kingdom, November 2023

7.2/10

The hotel offers well-equipped and spacious rooms that are spotlessly clean, but there was a slight issue with a lingering smell in the room. The service was efficient and friendly, although some communication about roadworks could have been clearer. The location is convenient with plenty of parking, but public transportation is not easily accessible. The dining experience provided a decent buffet but could have offered more variety. Overall, a comfortable stay with minor room maintenance issues.

7.0/10

I wanted a relaxing stay, and the hotel delivered that with well-stocked amenities in the rooms ensuring a good night’s sleep. The service was a mixed bag with some rude encounters but also helpful assistance, and the location was convenient for our event, though clearer signage would be beneficial. The dining experience had its ups and downs with well-organized grab-and-go options but disappointment with the advertised English breakfast. The facilities were basic but served their purpose well.
