Great one night stay

Had a really lovely stay. Slight mix up at reception when someone was already in our room but quickly resolved by reception and provided with a free drink. Room and hotel really lovely atmosphere and decoration. We had a dinner package which was great value.

Great stay-staff and location

Excellent hotel and great staff. Excellent location once you find it-they are located in the central point of a walking section of the town but prefect location for walking.

Perfect central location with lovely staff.

Lovely greeting at reception and quickly got me sorted and to my room. Comfortable and spacious enough room for me - desk a little small to work from on my laptop. Clean room and bathroom. Food in the restaurant was good and the breakfast was spot on. Great location, very central but no noise at all overnight.

Room and reception staff perfect, breakfast no

The room was in perfect condition, with plenty of amenities and luxuries. The reception staff are helpful and polite. However, breakfast was a disappointment. The price of breakfast is £20 per person, where you get a cafetière coffee or tea upon entry. I ordered a full English, and it was no better than what'd you get a premier inn. My girlfriend ordered avocado on toast, and that was no different than what you can make within 2 minutes at home. After we finished our hot breakfast, our dirty plates were sat infront of us for 20 minutes. Staff were constantly walking past ignoring it. We would have been much better off going to a café with our £40.

Good hotel, nice location

Hotel is in a good location, clean and the rooms are comfortable. I would prefer a self service breakfast, my server got my order wrong on both days that I stayed there. Happy to fend for myself and just order eggs as I need them.

Really nice stay at Hotel Indigo. Staff very friendly and helpful. Had a slight problem with cleanliness of bathroom on arrival but it was put right immediately by hotel manager. He was extremely apologetic and recompensed us for the inconvenience which we didn’t expect. Bar staff were very nice and waiting staff at breakfast great also
