This is one of the many hotels in the UK that won’t appeal to those who like to stay in beige box hotels like a Travelodge or a Novotel. It has a few eccentricities, but provides good value for money, with an excellent breakfast thrown in at a rate well below so-called budget chains. The beds are comfortable, and the... more

on arriving at the hotel, we checked in (which took forever). there were 4 of us sharing a room. in the room, there were 4 single beds (two of which were camp beds). there was a thin sheet and a thin 'quilt'. Once we had unpacked, we went for some food. The dining area was mucky. The table had allegedly... more

I stayed at the Ravensdene hotel recently and I can honestly say I have no complaints about it. The hotel is very welcoming, my room was massive, comfortable (especially the bed) and clean, the staff were very friendly and it was a pleasure to stay there. The hotel is located about 10 mins away from the metro centre which, if... more

We were there in July 09 with a well behaved posse of 21. It is definitely best suited to hens and stags, especially given the number of triple and quad rooms they put us in (not to mention the £30 a head deposit my bestman kindly put down (stinger! Check the small print)). Anyway, the bar is really pretty nice,... more

Place was clean, had a nice bar and great value carvery on Sunday. 11am check out is a slight pain, could have done with another hour :) Ironing boards that we borrowed were a bit comedic but a good time was had by all. The bar does shut at 11pm, its not 24 hour as has previously been advertised. To... more

This review is in no way exaggerated. Arrived at the Ravensdene on 31/7/09. Looked ok from the outside. Reception also was ok. Opened the room to find very dirty carpets that had not seen a hoover for weeks. The headboards had dirty greasy marks from the thousands of heads that have stayed there over time. The view out of the... more

It's clear from reading the reviews on here, and having been to the Ravensdene Lodge Hotel for a stag 'do' last weekend, that opinion is clearly divided between those people looking to get off their faces and almost everyone else. If you are looking for a quiet family get away then this is probably the last place that you should... more

I wish I had checked Tripadvisor before booking in here. On arrival we noticed cigarette ends, empty cans and other rubbish littering the car park and entrance. On entering, the first thing we noticed was the stale smell of cigarettes. Staff at reception were very pleasant and when I had to go back down to point out that the hospitality... more

myself and my wife checked in for a relaxing night and discoverd a room that had never seen a hoover since the place opened. there was cigerette dumps under the beds and false eye lashes stuck to the floor. music blasting all night, heating that never worked, a poor poor hotel. the only good thing we got from the place... more
