Excellent - would highly recommend!

Excellent location for the castle, town centre and LegoLand! Easy parking - although you do have to pay £15 for this. The room was bigger than I expected and so clean! The bathroom had a double shower. The breakfast was a grab bag due to renovations but the staff were so friendly and helpful and the food was perfect in there. We did bring our own weetabix and milk etc for our toddler. The only thing that let it down was how uncomfortable the bed was - pillows and mattress were just too hard and firm. It was ok for one night - just a shame as it’s one of the nicest (cheaper) hotels I’ve stayed in.

Little getaway

I was very disappointed as there was no hot breakfast as anticipated on my booking. They are doing refurbishment so had breakfast bags which had stuff we didn't like so had to buy breakfast in the town.Also didn't know that you had to pay for parking which added to more expense .Have previously stayed there without these issues. I think an email about breakfast should have been sent to me Did stay 2 nights and saw the manager to complain

The Expedia booking didn’t state the hotel was being refurbished. No food available at the hotel and didn’t include the full breakfast (offered paper take out bags). No chair to sit on in the room. Probably would have been fine if not for the refurbishment going on.

Mixed feelings

The hotel and the room we stayed in were lovely, very clean and all looked recently redecorated. We didn't use the underground car park as it is indeed very tight. We booked a family room but had no bedding for the sofa bed or a large towel for the 3rd person. When asked for some, we were given one pillow and a duvet without a cover. We had some issues with one of the meals we ordered for dinner that the staff managed to rectify. However, the quality of the food is not great and would not recommend for dinner. I paid £6.95 for a bowl of what I am most certain it was a tinned Heinz chicken soup with some bread and butter. Breakfast was lovely, staff is nice and polite.
