A Standard Affair

Everything was as expected except at check-in, we were not offered a room upgrade and we were not told about our 30% spot discount. As VIPs, Hotels.com mentioned we would have these perks. After discussing with reception, we were given the 30% discount. A room upgrade was never offered although it seems there was room availability.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in the Park gate ideally positioned in the centre gives you many places to dine or drink. If there was one minus it was the hot food side of the breakfast.The plates were cold and the food in the tureens were left to become empty before refilling. The sausages seemed to have been cooked hours earlier, the rest was equally cold just not good enough for that standard of hotel.

It’s a beautiful hotel and have previously enjoyed my stay. This time I got provided an accessible room, which was changed on request as I am not a fan of a wet room bathroom. The second room was on the first floor overlooking the entrance to the stadium with no net curtain and little privacy unless the curtains were entirely shut. So I was disappointed. The bed was extremely comfortable and an excellent shower. Breakfast was broadly good with the exception of the scrambled eggs which were not hot, and there was no cheese out. It’s still much better than other hotels but for a hotel of this quality the little things were disappointing.
