The main reason for booking this hotel was to meet family and have drinks in the bar but there was no draught lager so we were forced to drink bottles which I don’t like!

Easter weekend break

Me and my sister have had a 3 night easter weekend stay. The hotel is lovely and clean and has a lovely fragrant smell as you enter the lobby. The staff are friendly and helpful, nothing is a problem. The food is good and there is a lovely bar where you can relax and enjoy your drink, and we both had an amazing spa day. The hotel is 10 mins by taxi from the station, but is central for all you want to see and do. There are plenty of bars, cafes and restaurants. The zoo is 15 mins by taxi and was worth the trip. A most enjoyable day out. A most enjoyable weekend.

Enjoyable stay. Expensive for condition of rooms

Staff were so helpful and friendly. Paid for 2 premium rooms with a view. Would definately not class them as premium rooms. One of the windows we could not see out of as was constantly steamed up. Rooms were far to hot and there was no way of cooling them down.

Average Hotel

The hotel entrance is dark,dirty and dismal. It's basically a car park. The bedrooms are tired and our window was screwed closed. The duvet was a thick winter one,which we asked to change, but we're told that wasn't possible. The bar staff were lovely but the food in the restaurant was average. The breakfast was very good with quite a large selection of choice.
