Close to the town centre. Spacious reception. No towels in the room, over two hours later still no towels. Two tvs in the room, both didn't work. Given a room on the second floor, lift out of order. Moved into a new room on the first floor. Breakfast was buffet style, plenty of food available but no fresh coffee.

Was advertised as 4 star it shouldn’t be. Travelodge is cleaner. Dusty everywhere. Lift not working, fridge cupboard had no fridge. Had a couple of weird phone calls from reception that were silent?? Generally lacked care, chipped furniture and bath. Bed blanket with lots of pulls in it. Disappointed really, did not report to hotel as we only really slept in room and a shower the next day. If I had a longer booking would have moved hotel.

Didn't live up to expectation

Our stay here wasn't so good. We arrived and got checked in to be told that the lift wasn't working. Normally this would be fine but my mum had an injured foot and there were no rooms that were easily accessible. We then got to our room and it wasn't what we had originally booked. When I went to ask for a room with 2 beds as we had booked I was told there wasn't any left and we had been given a bigger room so should be happy with it. After again explaining we booked a room with 2 beds because we needed 2 beds we were then given an extra room and was told we wouldn't be charged. However, the morning after, my card had tried to be charged for a second payment. The toaster didn't work for breakfast and my mum had to ask for it to be fixed a few times before someone came to look at it. The photos on the website didn't really match the hotel in person. We wouldn't come back here again.

DO NOT BOOK

PLEASE READ REVIEWS BEFORE BOOKING. I stayed for 2 nights in July 2025 and had paid for the Penthouse room. From looking at the photos at the time of booking the room appeared to have additional space, a living area with a sofa and dining table/chairs. There was also a photo of a very large shower and free standing bath. Be warned...these photos are to entice you in to booking these rooms but are very far from what this hotel has to offer. On arrival i was told that my room was on the top floor, however the lift was out of use so i would have to walk. Not ideal but others would find those stairs very challenging. By the way the lift has been out of use for at least 7 months now. When entering my room i was shocked to see how basic it was, there was no additional room, no sofa, do dining area. The bathroom was very small and you could not sit at the toilet due to the sink cupboard. I did however have a free standing bath. The only issue was there was not only a missing plug, but the taps/pipes had also been removed. About as useful as a plane with no wings. I complained to the hotel and explained that the photos are clearly of another room and misleading. They would not issue any compensation and were not apologetic what so ever. DO NOT BOOK THIS HOTEL, IT IS NOT VALUE FOR MONEY AND NOTHING LIKE THE PHOTOS SUGGEST.
