Generally ok, but but the bar service is a bit slow when busy and make sure you get breakfast included, otherwise it "only" costs £15 and for that you get to make your own toast!! If I wanted to work on a hotel dining room then I would find a job doing just that!

Stayed here recently with work and I've stayed here before. Nice enough place, friendly staff and a good gym and pool. My room was a little tight on space with a large sofa bed occupying the space in front of the window (just made drawing the wooden blinds difficult). Nice and quiet with good double glazing although, again, the window... More

I would advise all but the natural navigators not to book here unless you have a satnav. This has to be one of the worst signposted medium sized hotels in the country.
