Firstly, I booked this hotel as it had its own car park, however the car park was full, the closest parking was a multi-storey car park where I had to pay £10 for the night and it was a 5 minute walk, however in the pouring rain, it felt like 10minutes. Secondly, the room was ridiculously cold, I sorted out the thermostat and raised the temperature to 32C, but despite that, the room remained cold, with a breeze coming from somewhere, I spent the night with 2 blankets on and still felt cold. After a tiring day at work, for me to come back to the hotel and all I wanted was to relax, but instead I had to deal with so much inconvenience.

Check out process was a complete mess, tried checking me in under a different name! Rooms are ok but nothing special for a high class hotel, no main light in the room, no fridge, tv is barely usable as no guide, no apps, no connection to it The worst part was only one lift working and queues were long! Average at best

We didn’t have breakfast The first room we had was b Very very noisy especially from a ‘loud alarm kind of noise from the lift’ thankfully the staff were excellent and re-roomed us. The hotel was noisy due to the refurbishment ( only during the afternoon) lots of drill noises etc All of the staff we met were excellent, in all aspects of their job. The overall condition of the hotel was well below what we expected, it’s obvious why the carpet is being replaced as it was dirty and heavily stained both in the corridors and in the room. The hotel just needs a bit of care …… The heating was inconsistent but thankfully it didn’t detract from our stay The hotel is in a great location …. It just needs sprucing up

No complaints whatsoever about the rooms - absolutely spotless. My concerns lie with mistakes made at reception. I had booked two rooms and in an attempt to put me and my friend on the same floor ended up giving us the same room. This was rectified the moment we realised we both had the same room number and went back to reception. We were also told that our rooms came with breakfast (I didn't remember booking breakfast but thought if it's in the system I must have) but when we went up to breakfast we weren't on the list and had to pay separately. Not a very good car park design either as our vehicle was too high to use the regular exit so had to come back out via the entrance.
