My wife and I are regular visitors to Holiday Inn hotels (Priority Club platinum) but having stayed at this hotel recently we could not believe that it is part of the same group. I am sorry to sound so negative but this hotel is in desperate need of a visit from a senior Director of HI so that they can... More

Stayed on the second Sunday in January. The place had a kind of Christmas hangover feel... Tinsel still up; very few staff about; restaurant not open (only bar food) ... Kinda Alan Partridge'esque Other negatives were that there was no information card in the room to explain services that they might or might not have had; there was no safe.... More

Great evening. The food was excellent and considering we were approx 65 people it was piping hot and all served promptly. I was pleased to see that guests had made the effort to dress up, quite a few in bowtie and dinner jackets, making the experience much more enjoyable. Also the choice of DJ was perfect as he catered for... More

Check in was fine, the lady on the desk, bubbly and helpful. We got to our room (ground floor), and were greeted by a dirty towel on the floor just inside the door (probably dropped by the... More

When this hotel was the Marriott it was good, now it is a Holiday Inn owned by Intercontinental Hotels Group (IHG) and sadly lacks the Holiday Inn standards of service and comfort commensurate with this chain. Our check in was efficient, friendly and welcoming. Our room was spacious, neat, and reasonably well furnished - or so we thought until firstly... More
