Great hotel in a good location. Rooms was comfortable and clean. The Sofa Bed had been made up though restricting space in the room. I was staying alone so there was no need for this. The hotel may have been busy though so it might have been the only available room? Food was OK but very expensive for this standard of hotel, it was hardly Michelin Star but I felt it was quite pricey!

Room was good and staff, friendly and helpful. Breakfast was fantastic and had a good selection. My only slight disappointment was the quality of the dinner. Caesar salad was a bit slap dash. The kids meal quality needs to improve too and have a more healthy and wholesome choice. Kids pizza was thick and stodgy and the dessert was not great.

The hotel was easy to find and had a lovely modern reception area and bar. our room was AMAZING! A premium room which was more like a suite with separate hallway and bathroom area. It was huge and great for us and two children. Complimentary minibar with snacks and drinks. The room was on the ground floor right by reception so was really handy. The staff were really friendly and helpful and gave our daughter a certificate for her harry potter drawing. Breakfast was fantastic, lots of choice and constantly being topped up by staff. Our first ever stay in a holiday inn and we will definitely be back! Our only downside was the swimming pool - the changing room floors were very dirty and the pool area could definitely do with an upgrade. apart from that - perfect!

I stayed here on a recent business trip and, unfortunately, the experience fell well below expectations. Check-in: The queue was extremely long with only one person on the desk. Another guest knocked on the office door and we could see three staff inside not serving. Only one additional person eventually came out, and when we asked if a third could help, we were told two was “enough.” This created an avoidable delay and a poor first impression. Pool area: While it’s a plus that the hotel has a pool, the upkeep needs urgent attention. I observed brown discolouration in multiple corners and general signs of inadequate maintenance, raising basic cleanliness concerns. Bar and night management: After the bar closed, our small group returned with one drink each from across the road and sat quietly in a downstairs area. We weren’t playing music or disturbing others. A staff member who introduced himself as “Ashley” and said he was the night manager approached with a very confrontational tone and immediately threatened to call the police if we did not move. The escalation felt unnecessary and disproportionate to the situation. Overall: Core basics (front-desk staffing, cleanliness, professional communication) were not handled well. I would recommend management review staffing levels at peak times, address pool maintenance standards, and provide training on de-escalation and guest communication for night staff.
