“Excellent Value at The Brocket!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 14 December 2011

Stayed for just a Friday night to avoid driving home after the works Xmas Do! Booked via Laterooms, but neither their confirmation nor the Brocket's own were needed at the speedy check in.Double room rather on the small side, but clean and well equiped-bathroom again compact, but modern, spotless and with a nice hot towel rail!. Room wasn't quite ready for some reason, but when the very bubbly manageress enquired why we were returning to reception so soon she took my wife and I into the bar for a complimentary drink-who could ask for more?!

After our function, returned and had a few drinks in the very busy bar before turning in. Excellent selection of Beers on offer! Had no trouble getting off to sleep despite the fact the Bar was open for at least another hour!

Breakfast in the morning was OK but could have been so much better if both the plate and the food items were served a little hotter. OH had scrambled egg on toast-no doubt cooked to order which was spot on!

Business colleagues visiting from our head office prefer to stay at the Brocket rather than "grander" hotels in the area and now I know why!

“Impulse weekend”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 28 November 2011

I stayed there for two weekend nights in november it was a 10 minute walk into the centre but also on a main bus route. The room was a double very comfortable with tea/coffee biscuits and bottle water available,it was reasonably priced the staff were very helpful and polite would definitely stay again, only negative, although the car park is quite large I had to drive somewhere to a meeting on the saturday and did not get back until 9-00pm there was no parking available because it is very popular both as a pub and for meals. I eventually got parked at 9-40 on the main road about 500 metres away, i would have thought they have enough space in the car park for resident parking, that said i normally would not need to go out in the car at nights when i am away for the weekends

Room Tip: rooms on the east side are quieter

“Best hotel in Wigan”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 9 November 2011

I stayed here for 3 nights in late September, mainly for theTottenham game but also as a base to visit some of the many Industrial Heritage sights in the area. 15 minutes walk from town centre/train stations and on a bus route makes this an attractive option.
Room was comfortable, clean and reasonably priced. The bar/pub downstairs (J D Wetherspoons), where you can have breakfast from 07:00, proved very handy not only for drinks but meals as well. Already planning to stay here again next season, assuming Wigan don't get relegated!

“Not Recommended”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 6 August 2011

We found this hotel not very family friendly i'm afraid . Family room No 129 was over the front of the pub and we were kept awake by revellers until 2.40 am. No kids allowed in bar after 9.30, we were ushered to reception with our drinks where we were advised by other members of staff to make it our last drink and to take the kids to the room ! Not Happy ! Also room had a mouldy smell .
