Lovely cool and comfortable room.
Loved this place. Very few hotels in the area have air conditioning so having a beautifully cool room was a huge bonus for me. In summary - modern, clean and welcoming. The bed was also amazingly comfortable!

Very pleasant stay.
The main downside is that there is no lift and it could do with a lick of paint but otherwise it is well equipped and staff were very pleasant and attentive. We were only there for 3 nights but towels were changed twice and room tidied each day. There is a good variety on the restaurant menu too. We have stayed here at other times in the past too and will again.

Brief overnight stop. No complaints; exactly what you’d hope for from a regional chain. Didn’t try the bar or restaurant. Nespreso machine a nice touch.

A fab break
It was just what we needed. Easy to find and a lovely position. It wasn't too far from everything but was not in the madness of the city. Huge room and well cleaned and always organised by the time we returned each day

Staff were very helpful and room was properly cleaned each day. Slight downside is being next to a very busy road but on the upside the transport system was very easy. Restaurant food and service were excellent and access to outdoor space a bonus. Overall good value.

Always very well looked after by the team here and this year was no differet.
The rooms are nice and spaciouis and the high quality bed linen/towels etc. make is to much more pleasant.
Restaurant menu is a bit more curtailed than my last visit, but that is commonplace everywhere I believe - still a decent variety of options.

Ideal location friendly hotel
Nice large room, welcome aircon on arrival in heatwave. Plenty of space for clothes. Comfy bed and pillows. Large shower room. Fresh supply of biscuits, tea and milk each day. Unfortunately no sugar, went to reception who apologised and got some from cupboard near room but only few cubes left. No sugar was supplied for rest of the week. Bought sugar in local shop. Marvellous views from balcony area in bar overlooking countryside. Plenty of parking spaces. Hotel ideally situated near train and bus station - just 10 min walk downhill.
