I found it a strange place,the bar/lounge/dining area reminded me of a working men’s club I once went in in Hartlepool back in the eighties. At the Bar they were quite happy to take cash off you but couldn’t give you any change as they didn’t have any. Would I stay at a Holiday Inn again. Definitely Not.

Exactly what I would expect from Holiday Inn. Staff were friendly and very helpful. Property is starting to look a bit tired, loose fittings, water ingress evidence, paint patching etc. Basics such as stocked bottled water from the vending machines missing (I know this is a VMI issue) during hot weather. Steam extraction in bathrooms inadequate. Offering of supply of “forgotten” essentials didn’t exist when asked at reception for a face cloth, bit disappointing as this was explicitly listed within the sticker in the bathroom. Lovely stay otherwise.

We visited here with our children and were warmly welcomed. The room was very clean and perfect for a family of four. The en-suite was immaculate, lovely touches like dove body wash, shampoo, hand wash etc. we stayed here for 3 nights and every day the staff came in to change and make the beds and ensured we had enough clean towels every day. The breakfast was a great start to the busy fun days we had. We and our children loved it. So happy we stayed here, better than some expensive hotels we’ve stayed at before. Will definitely stay here again. Staff were all so friendly and couldn’t do any more than they did to ensure we had a brilliant stay. Thank you!! 5 stars 10/10 xx
