Nice hotel with lots of parking and very friendly staff at reception. Gym was OK but no water and the lift was broken so bags had to be carried up to the second floor. Breakfast wasn't included either and the hotel is a little tired. OK for one night however.

A steady clean hotel away from the hustle of the city centre. The staff were super friendly, special mention to Kiran on the check in desk. The room was tight for space but as it was only a one night stay that was perfectly acceptable. The bed was really comfy. The only thing I would knock it for would be there was a lot of dust around the TV area. The gym area looked neat and tidy, I didn’t use them as I’d used a gym in the city prior to arrival. The restaurant area had a nice feel to it even though there were few guests. I ordered a steak burger with chips and a drink, came to approx £23 which was reasonable. Breakfast was everything you’d expect from a buffet style breakfast. A selection of hot and cold food and drinks including continental style. Overall a comfortable stay and I would stay again.

Clearly the hotel has been just taken over, and it felt like the new people weren't quite up to speed. A couple of times it took a while for staff to eppear when needed. The buffet breakfast on Saturday morning was very bad for this and a group of us had to wait quite a while for food to turn up. Sure: it's a busy time, but part of the job here is to anticipate and deal with demand. I also didn't get on with the mattress and struggled to sleep.

Really nice hotel, we checked in early and Kiran sorted out finding us a room that was available so we didn't have to check in later on when we got back in. The bed was extremely comfortable and the breakfast was great with Claire making sure we were well looked after.

We stayed overnight to attend the Liverpool parade. The check in process was quick and easy. The bathroom could have been cleaner. It was a little dark in the room due to limited lighting. The bed was very comfortable. Parking is included so that was very convenient. We would stay again.

A very friendly hotel

Easy to find as there are brown road signs directing you in . Parking was great right by the door, on a cool wet day , always a bonus . This is one friendly hotel , the staff are just lovely , always saying hello when you walk past and with a smile too . This is a clean fresh hotel , everything is brand new within , with some improvements to the exterior too ( always looked a bit agricultural when you drove past in the past ) . The food we had was excellent and bar service spot on too . The room was warm , comfortable and quiet ( unlike a couple of guests who let their door slam after midnight and then again at 645 too 🙄) . The only minor gripe is the price of the excellent food ( £16 for a margarita pizza and £22 for a curry with sides) and the bar prices were a little steep at £7.30 for a pint of Guinness. That said there is nothing nearby , so you are a captive audience to the said pricing structure . I didn’t let that spoil my stay as we were off to a wedding nearby , and there prices were much the same. A recommended hotel stay , and would return without question in the future .
