Frustrating stay - the hotel itself was very nice and the room was well equipped, modern and clean. However, it’s marketed as an ‘airport hotel’ - aka a place people book to stay when they have an early flight. We booked as we needed to be up at 2am, however, there was a very, very loud party on until after midnight. I don’t complain and I dont exaggerate, it felt like being on the Ayia Napa strip. There wasn’t any communication from the hotel about the party, if there was we would have moved to an alternative location as we got about 1.5 hours of sleep before a long day of travel.

The rooms are good, shower is nice everything is clean. The only issue was the dinner service. It was busy so i understand delays. We waited 40 minutes for food and the quality compared to price didn’t add up. I dont think they had enough staff running food so a lot of it was sat under the hot lamps

Would definitely stay here again.

Travelling from the north it was easy enough to get to. There is parking available directly outside the hotel (£12 night) but there is also parking in the NEC building around the corner. Lovely clean, welcoming entrance and welcome drinks at the reception desk. Which was nice as we usually only see this abroad. Our rooms were on the ground floor. The single standard was just that, a single standard. Clean, compact, all the usual amenities. The 4 bed suite was surprisingly gorgeous. A good layout with the partioning wall. The bathroom, towels and bedding looked very clean. The coffee machine was a nice touch which uplifted the whole experience (there is a kettle in the room for tea drinkers too) cleaning staff are super helpful and friendly. Some of the reception staff would benefit from better customer service training. The manager and duty manager on the day were brilliant. The staff in general were helpful and courteous. They would benefit from looking a little more kemp and smarter in their attire. The pool and gym were brilliant. Clean and available at most times of the day. I would book this hotel again.

Lovely hotel, shame about transfer options to airp

The hotel was fabulous. We were immediately given an upgrade, as somone had been smoking in our allocated room. Biggest disappintment was that free hotel transfer to airport didnt start early enough for us, and wouldnt be running to bring to hotel , those on late flights. We ordered a taxi via hotel to take us to airport for early flight and taxi was 1/ 2 late.
