Close to airport, stayed only 1 night. Room was clean and spacious. A little noisy at certain points, i guess the kitchen or area where trash is thrown was right outside our bathroom window. The day we were checking out they asked us on several occasions what time we planned to check out. I can understand asking once but we were asked 3 times. One point the staff member mentioned that there was no smoking in the rooms. Well that is standard in all hotels, not sure why they mentioned it the day we were leaving, thats something you do the time of check in. My husband smokes and we stepped outside many times in front of them so was very odd, almost insulting for the staff to happen to mention that to us just minutes before check out. Besides those situations the hotel met our needs but staff needs to have better communication skills

The hotel was nice and convenient for the airport. The only reason I have for marking it down a star is that the air conditioning just didn’t work throughout the hotel. We asked for a fan in the room as it was so hot which was provided quickly. When I mentioned it again at check out I was advised they have to set the temperature throughout the entire hotel. Apparently the week before when it was cooler people were too cold so they turned the temperature setting up. Surely each room should be able to individually control the temperature? This is the UK and temperatures fluctuate. There’s a control panel on the wall yet it does nothing. Please sort it out, people don’t pay £150-£200 for a room to not be able to sleep.

Perfect stay

Quick overnight between flights. Slight problem at check in as the computer went down but we were immediately given a free drinks voucher and led to the bar to wait, then once sorted, the key was brought to us. Room absolutely perfect - a king sized bed and 2 singles. Included breakfast was great, and given the price we paid for the room, it was a real bargain. Would 100% recommend. Shuttle bus to/from airport was handy, and cost £5 pp each way.

Excellent family room

Really happy. Booked almost a year in advance and got a great price. Friendly staff - even offered my kids a much appreciated chocolate bar on arrival. . Quick check in, taken to the room as it was hard to find, and it was excellent. Booked a family room and it had a double bed (might have been king sized, not sure) a double pull out sofa and a separate camp bed, for 4 of us. Clean comfortable and had everything we needed. Really appreciated the little bottles of water in the room. I’ve stayed in loads of different chains with work and for pleasure and Crowne plaza is a cut above.
