The property was very easy to find. The Reception area inviting, clean and bright with a nice layout and comfortable seating. The Receptionist was very welcoming and friendly. Our room was of a good size, clean and comfortable. The breakfast was very good. Convenient parking and prices were reasonable. We would definitely return.

The staff were rude, the bed was too hard, and the shower had very little pressure. My overall experience at the Britannia was very disappointing. I will not be returning and would not recommend it.

They are trying to get the place better. Very poor wifi and ridiculous plumbing issues were too much for me . I recently contacted to see if the issues had been resolved , the receptionist had no idea of the issues although he was one of the staff I spoke to. Manager not available and I was unable to call back . I was there for 5 nights, plenty of time to deal with issues .

Stay clear if you dont carry passport

What a ridiculous hotel .we checkedbin at 1am after a 6 hour drive obviously a little wary and we were confronted by a young lady asking for our passport i explained i did not have it .why would i need a passport in england ? She then said a credit caed would not do only a drivers licence.i explained mybwalletbwas in one of my bags in my very full car.she said unless you get it you cannot check in .i admit i lost it at that point but to be told by a non british subject that every hotel in the uk was the same is just plain lies .i travelled all over the uk last year and managed over 100 nights in hotel says .this is the first time in my life i have been told this rubbish .i checked into gleneagles todaybfor a week at no time was i asked for identification at any time .hotels.com are at fault here because it should have a warning saying unless you have id you cannot enter and would have to spend the evening in your car at -7degrees outside.nowhete does hotels.com tell you any of this.i certainly would never set foot in a britannia hotel again and would seriously question the people skills of its employees.i also may stop using hotels.com and go back to booking. Com they dont have these archaic rules ..shame on you britannia hotels
