The lift was broken, the room was hard to find, but the worst problem was that there was only scalding hot water in the shower, and the cold water did not work in the bath either. That said, the staff were friendly and eager to help

Week clearly this is a hotel with big aspirations but just not quite there yet. The staff are absolutely amazing, friendly, welcoming, ready to give advice and all around excellent. No matter which staff member in any area, they were just amazing. The food and dining are area are well kept, well presented and newly decorated creating a relaxing environment. The addition of the sports bar for me is great but for young family’s perhaps not. The leisure complex is undergoing works. You can see they are spending a lot of money to bring everything up to date and when it’s finished id love to return. For me the negatives are few. Bathroom floors and bedrooms need updating, bathroom floor is cheap and tacky and looks it. Special shout out to the cleaners, my room was so clean, and re done daily. Thanks Team for an amazing stay :)

It was a lovely place but a bit tired and the pool wasn’t open. Our bed was v hard but friend’s bed was comfy. Bar/restaurant was good, lovely staff. We were there overnight for an event at Resorts World and for the purpose I would stay again.

My bed was unbelievably uncomfortable had a dip in the mattress which meant I kept rolling into the dip. The bed was small also feet were hanging off the end and I’m only 5.10. Hotel was nice tho overall but the bed let it down, also the condition of the ceiling and walls let it down as was damp.

First impression was really good, until we wanted to eat in the restaurant which only had one vegan token offering. Room was ok, mattress was awful and squeaky. Breakfast the coffee machine was broken, hot water wasn’t very hot for the coffee bags provided. Again no vegan offerings. And the pasties was cross contaminated with nut ones sitting on top of non nut ones. Really disappointed

Jaded
I've been staying here some years now- and the whole place is very jaded. My shower wouldn't turn off, and a colleague's hairdryer didn't work- to be told they don't have spares (they do- just the receptionist that morning wasn't great!) However- the food is fantastic and most of the receptionists know their stuff! They are also undergoing refurbishment- so am hoping they get this done quickly, as it's a great place to stay when on form!

This hotel is absolutely to be avoided, the other reviews saying this hotel is tired looking don't even cut it. This hotel is exhausted. Every room or hallway has a unique and disgusting smell. The room I had was battered and sad and smelt of mildew with damp staining on the walls and broken lights, furniture and exposed wires on the hairdryer. The shower had no temperature control, it was either the scolding baths of hell or arctic freeze. No in-between. The hallway carpet is stained and worn as well as there being a general sadness to the entire hotel. The only way this hotel escapes 0 stars is due to how lovely and friendly all the staff were and that the room was clean. Ultimately I'm happy this was a work trip because I'd be disgusted if I'd actually paid for it. Next time I need to read reviews better.

Too hot to handle
The room was far too hot! We had the radiators off, windows open in the middle of winter. The pipes were far too hot. Very uncomfortable. The double bed was so bouncy with no support and we kept rolling into the middle. Two of the most rubbish nights sleep for the adults, kids seemed to have coped well. Restaurant is lovely as is the food and the staff.

Clean and tidy but showing a bit of wear. Bed needed a new mattress or a topper as you could feel the springs. Breakfast ok but a lot of the items on the cooked buffet were not hot.

Expect hiccups. But worth it for the price.
Give these guys the benefit of the doubt. They are refurbing. Nice lounge and bar. The staff work very hard. The breakfast was lovely. But they need to replace the damn coffee machine. The pool is currently closed till spring 2024. The plug sockets are ridiculous. (ALL Placed in strange places, most unusual.Take an extension lead) There are a lot If stairs (when the lift isn’t working). The meals are nice, if not a bit pricy. Car park is huge. We will be back.
The plugs are behind the wardrobe and by the dressing table, only.
This was the location of a plug point!!

Disappointing Stay with Non-Functional Amenities
"Disappointing Stay with Non-Functional Amenities" I recently stayed at Hotel and unfortunately, it was not a pleasant experience. The most significant issue was the non-functional shower, which greatly impacted my stay. Despite bringing this to the attention of the staff, the problem persisted throughout my visit. Additionally, the overall condition of the hotel appeared dated, and the carpet emitted an unpleasant odor. It's disheartening when basic amenities are not in proper working order, and the overall ambiance falls short of expectations. Despite leaving my telephone number and email address, I have yet to receive any communication regarding the issues I reported during my stay. Effective communication is crucial in addressing guest concerns and ensuring a positive experience. Unfortunately, the management's failure to follow up has left me disappointed and dissatisfied. I hope this feedback prompts improved communication practices and timely issue resolution for future guests

Lovely building exterior and both the bar and restaurant are nice, however the hotel is a little happy. It needs a lick of paint and replacement carpets. The rooms and furniture are really old fashioned. The hairdryer and the bath plug was missing from the room. It took over two hours to supply these.
