Tv remote did not work and no toilet rolls in room on arrival and remedied eventually after chasing. Breakfast food lowest quality available and we went to McDonalds the second morning! Bar had run out of bottled beer, gin and Baileys and no room service. Very poor and not worth HALF the cost! Go somewhere else if possible.

the room was really clean and the hotel was quiet, breakfast was good and lots of choice, however didnt think much of the menu choice for meals. I had a lamb shank but only got small piece of potato mash no veg which is unusual when you order and also not always keen on curries so better choice would be nice

Great hotel, but breakfast service was very poor.

Very clean room and facilities. Breakfast was not very good, whilst the food was great, the service was awful. Not enough staff to cope with the guests. Continually running out of food, cups, sauces, tea bags etc etc, and tables that needed cleaning were stacking up as guests were pouring in.
