ok

business trip, 1 night stay. The hotel is not operating to its full summer potential. The kitchen shuts at 20:00, meaning, not good for me getting there at 19:40. Staff were fantastic but again no breakfast offered, i am guessing it must be because its not summer. Probably if i were staying in the area again i would choose a hotel with more facilities

Staff were friendly and helpful. Disappointed to find the restaurant closed at 8 pm and the bar at 9. After a very long day at work and drive down, arriving at 7.30 I felt I wanted time to relax and enjoy a beer rather than be rushed in and out. The food I did have was fairly mediocre. Clearly just reheated, I could have got a microwave meal on the way down which could have been nicer! Fairly expensive too - (compared to what I would expect to pay back up in the north anyway). Very disappointingly breakfast is not provided. this is actually made clear in the bumph provided, but they quote some weird government legislation that prevents them doing breakfast! Odd... Rooms were fine, quite nice but nothing special so glad I a better rate through Expedia. Wall paper peeling off in my room. But a fan was provided for some of the hottest days of the year which was good. Tea and coffee as normal - no biscuits on the first day! Just one pack of two on the second .. Come on! It is a nice place in a nice area, nothing special it has to be said. The advertising and website implies it is more upmarket than it turned out to be. All in all, Yes, fine, but average, verging on the disappointing. Just a point about breakfast. I travel a lot and I find some places now do a buffet style breakfast, with cereals,, toast/croissants etc left out. Milk, fruit juice and some yoghurts etc available in a fridge for customers to help themselves, very cheap and easy to do. Makes all the differenc
