We have stayed with Choice hotels on seven occasions now and have found every stay thoroughly enjoyable and excellent value for money, particularly the 'all inclusive' deals, would most definitely recommend to others.

As a previous reviewer said, the entrance could do with a makeover but the rooms, upstairs bar area, and restaurant have had a makeover in the past couple of years. Everywhere is very clean and tidy, rooms cleaned and fresh towels every day. Food excellent, buffet breakfast... More

I am pleased we stayed, the room was clean, the food good, the... More

My wife and I stayed at the Viking Hotel for two nights prior to the Bank Holiday weekend. Everywhere very clean and tidy but a little dated in some areas. Staff very friendly and the food was excellent, spoilt for choice. My only criticism is that breakfast is served from 8.30am, a little late for my liking as I am... More

Our second mid week break to the Viking this month. Always visit with my wife and mother and stay for 5 nights. Excellent value for money, restaurant is great and and because of the nightly entertainment in Talk of the Coast we do not have to leave the hotel. Viking is very handy for buses and trams but what keeps... More
