It was almost like going back in time to the 80's. But it was clean and pleasant. Welcoming and nice. Easily accessible to the M4 and walking distance to ICC.

I booked a family room for myself and 2 friends for an overnight stay. The welcome on reception was 10/10, the room was immaculate and the pool and restaurant. The breakfast was fabulous. I would definitely recommend to others and wouldn't hesitate to come back.

The rooms a looking tired, but are clean. Staff attendance was poor, we waited at reception to be checked in and there was only one member of staff serving at the bar in the evening and then they disappeared each time a beer needed replacing or to replace empty wine bottles.

Dear AndyThank you for your review, it is much appreciated; I am very sorry to hear that you did not enjoy your time with us, it doesn't sound great at all and it's very disappointing as it is certainly not typical of our hotel and I'm very sorry this was your experience, I am going to ask housekeeping to investigate the points you raised to see if we can rectify.. If you do return to the area please do get in touch with me directly I will be able to ensure you have a more comfortable room for your visit.Kind regardsAmanda/Reservations

My elderly parents stayed here and I asked the hotel to look after them. They were delighted! The staff were super helpful and they had a great room. They could not have done more. Thanks!

Staff need to familiarize customers with fire evacuation procedures and if possibly supply them with leaflets in the rooms

Hello Henry, Thank You for your valuable feedback. When the fire alarm is activated by guests it does make some staff panic and sometimes trained procedures are not always followed as per classroom training. The safety of our guests is extremely important and our utmost priority, we appreciate when the fire alarm sounds it can be worrying but it is there to save lives and we are happy to report that on this occasion everyone was safe. We will share your feedback with the team. Kind Regards.
