This is a 2 star hotel, no question. On the plus side, the staff are friendly, my room was clean, I had a hot shower and the bed was comfortable. There is wifi, though a bit slow. For a lot of people, that ticks the necessary boxes. The down side is the very tired 70s decor, the car park that... More

This is a nice small family hotel and has its own carpark. Our room was clean and comfortable, English breakfast was available every morning. Plenty of freeview channels on TV, although the screen itself was a bit tiny.Our room was at the far end of the hotel, which meant that the music played in the bar below didn't reach us.... More

The welcome from the reception staff was very professional and courteous, the room was nice, clean and spacious and the bathroom was... More

We were booked in for one night with a few other members of the family in other rooms. We arrived early evening on a Thursday and checked in at the large, clean and modern bar. The hotel... More

pointless booking into a hotel. would have got a better nights sleep in my car or on a park bench. could hear a water pump or boiler running all night, doors slamming and workers in the car park. never again. i explained this in the morning to the staff and they didn't seem to care. such a shame as we...

I definitely would not recommend this hotel, and did not enjoy my stay there. Luckily, I have had a few days to calm down, otherwise this review would have been in danger of containing expletives! I will try and first think of some positives: - ermm.... - Ok, near to 3 rivers golf and country club. Taxi £12. - Relatively... More
