The breakfast was good and made eggs to order. Reception helped us out with taxis. The bed was comfortable. On arrival things such as parking and breakfast was not made clear to us so we had to ask plus there was confusion over payment. The hotel was clean in the surface but not thoroughly on closer inspection. It was very hot outside and we had a fan but it was not very powerful making being in the room for a long period of time unpleasant.

The room was very nice and comfortable. The buffet breakfast was excellent and the staff were very friendly. We weren't impressed with the restaurant and only ate in there on our first night. They didn't have the first couple of meals I chose, which was steak and salmon. I ended up having a chicken tika curry, which was very good. We also ended up waiting 20 minutes for our drinks for some reason. Everyone just seem to disappear. They were very apologetic when they realised what had happened. They also advertise on their web site that they a swimming pool, but apparently it's been closed for a while.

Bring a bicycle?

A bit surprised on arrival (many signs) that I had to pay £20 for parking for two nights. There was an 'option' to avoid this with a club membership, but considering I'd already fully paid and there were many parking places aplenty, erm...

Alright

Location suited. Rooms were fine and staff were pleasant. It was very hot in the rooms. As in most hotels the window only opened a crack, there isn’t any air con in the room but a fan was provided which blew dust the size of snowflakes all around the room. The beds are harder than I would have wanted or expected

We arrived to check in at 8:30 pm and the room wasn’t ready. Check in was supposed to be ready from 3pm. The room had a disgusting smell to it. It was an extremely hot weather and there was no AC or working fan. The beds were uncomfortable to sleep on. Receptionist who dealt with us didn’t seem to care about anything. Only decent thing about the the place was the breakfast

Bedbug infestation- avoid this hotel

The horel smells damp and congested. But I didn't mind at first. I the morning I noticed blood dots on the bed when I inspected the bed it was infested with multiple fat bedbugs. They were crawling all over the bed duvet. They were horrible. I couldn't stop itching since a saw them. This is not acceptable in uk. Totally unhygienic. God only know what infections I may have caught being bitten by them all night.

The staff at this hotel are helpful and polite. I had a minor issue with my room, I reported this to reception and they had somebody at my room in five minutes to resolve the issue. Food was good and I especially enjoyed the breakfast with a wide selection of fruits, preserves and an excellent cooked breakfast choice. I would definitely visit this hotel again, for me, the mark of excellent customer service is when something goes wrong and how the staff deal with that. Highly recommend

Updates required

Room felt a bit tired, the security latch on the window was broken, the window itself was dirty, as were most others in public areas, have never seen so many cob webs on the outside of window, they acted as there own security system. A window cleaner needs to be employed. Toilet seat was loose, bath plug not attached to the chain, rusty stains coming from the bath grab rails. The bar area was pleasant & welcoming as was the restaurant. Overall not what we expect from a 4* hotel.
