Our first room was dated, had holes in the net curtains and stains on the carpet which for the price wasn’t acceptable. The pillows felt like sleeping on rocks we complained and we were moved to a more upgraded room. The new room was nicer bed comfy and pillows better. On a plus the staff were all lovely very helpful. We didn’t eat dinner there but the breakfast was nice they had gluten free choices too.

1st time stay here for one night. Room ok clean but dated. Overlooking the canal.Large comfy bed quiet outside. Rooms not soundproof. Had a drink in the bar which was reasonably priced and a nice area. Staff very pleasant. We used the swimming pool when we arrived which was quite a large pool. Only issue pool towel given was very thin and i struggled to dry myself properly. Hotel a very short walk into main shopping area/ bars etc. Breakfast good choice of items. Parking £12 from check in till next day midday only ( not full 24hrs). Would i stay again- probably yes

Hotel is in a great location, facilities are all very good. It has a very nice bar with large TV screens and comfortable seating, the breakfast which was included is buffet style and of a good standard. The only thing that lets it down is the quality of the mattress and the awful pillows they seem to use on both sides of the hotel. We asked to move after the first night as the bed & pillows in our room was shocking, to be fair they moved us across to the newer side into one of the upgraded rooms with no fuss and it was a lot better but for a fairly high end hotel you would expect the beds / mattresses and pillows to be of a lot better quality even in the newer side. Reception staff are nice and friendly and it’s a 5 min walk to the centre where the bars and restaurants all are.
