Stayed one night on business. Check in was efficient, the room was clean and there was a desk so I could get some work done. Downsides are that if you are downstairs and the person above paces the floor in the night, the creaky floors keep you awake. Also the duvet was way too thick and hot. If on a motorbike, there is nowhere to chain it up, but they do have cameras in the car park. The bed was comfortable which is the main thing for me and it is close to the motorway so access is easy.

Awful beds

The hotel was really nice with lovely gardens. Our room was in a separate block and the decorations etc looked new. The bathroom was spacious and clean. there were outside tables and chairs where we could sit. However the bed was awful, lumpy, bumpy and the springs were making noises. We could not sleep and were aching all over the next day. We arrived Sunday afternoon and the kitchen closed at 5pm, so we could not get anything to eat in the evening. We we supposed to stay on the Monday night, but we went home at 5.00pm because we did not want to spen another night on the beds.

Comfortable and relaxing stay

The hotel is very convenient both to arrive by car (close to the M53) or by train. I arrived from London by train and it's only a 10 minute walk from Hooton station. I received a warm welcome and was shown to my room, which was in an annexe to the main building, overlooking the garden. The service was friendly, professional and efficient, the room was very comfortable with a modern bathroom.

Only stayed one night but overall a pleasant stay. Room was large with plenty of room. Bed extremely soft but had a relatively good nights sleep. Tea and coffee was plentiful. I woukd suggest some hooks in the shower room to hang clothing/ towels. There is no lift at the property. Food in the squadron bar was good. We had late lunch and breakfast. Drinks with breakfast were not included in the price which makes it a little expensive but overall it was good. My only critisism was that we opted to pay at the hotel as wanted to pay cash but the money was taken from my card on the morning of the day of arrival as opposed to the end of our stay. A lovely place to stay and staff were helpful and friendly

Good spot for a Liverpool visit.

We were looking for a place to stay near Liverpool. This was a great find because it was affordable and is very close to a train that takes you to the city center. We’d definitely stay there again!

Poor breakfast service

We enjoyed our stay and the room was very clean. My only problem was with the service at breakfast. We waited almost 40 minutes for our order to arrive and when it did, it was not correct.

Overnight stay review

Had a comfortable stay room was good size, although dated the shower was good. Bar area is very nice and gardens also. Staff friendly, however did not give good impression that staff eat in the guest area. Breakfast was confusing and had to ask if provided with stay, but told no. Menu good but drinks not included and there was no one there to explain how things worked and guest looked confused. Location great for motorway and room clean
