We checked out before staying the night as we didn't feel that the hotel was safe to keep our children in. The hotel condition is extremely dated and in a poor state which wasn't ideal; however, our decision to check out early came when we walked down the hotel corridor to our room at 7:30 and smelt cigarette smoke and marijuana coming out of the rooms and heard a dog whimpering in the room next door. The guests who were staying in the rooms near us were extremely loud. As we were leaving the hotel we are fairly sure that we witnessed a drug drop-off outside the hotel. It is worth noting that the staff were trying their absolute best to be welcoming and helpful. They were apologetic when we explained why we were checking out early. The hotel manager called me the following day and offered a free of charge stay at either this hotel or their sister hotel new Drayton Manor. We declined but appreciated the gesture.

Disappointed overnight stay!

Really lovely staff, dealing with a worn out hotel. Great size room, very very dated and in need of some TLC. The bed was hard and sank in the middle. Hearing sounded like your room was next to a bus station. The TV did not work!!!! It was ok until the evening and then lost signal. We took my grandson (10 months) so was in the room from 8pm. Couldn’t watch a thing! Sud standard tea and coffee, no biscuits, corridor ceiling tiles going black with mould. Pool, gym and spa excellent quality, the pool could have been 2oc warmer to counter balance the cold from the conservatory windows. Changing rooms freezing!!!!! In all it would Make an amazing stay if there was more thought to customer comfort, and a refresh. It is a shame as the staff were great and helpful, but there is only so much that you can do.

The rooms are in desperate need of refurbishment and from the room you can hear every single noise like someone snoring all night , loud TV, disrespectful customers banging doors and yelling in the night. Shame as the pool is really nice, but apart from that I didn’t enjoy my stay.

Friendly, efficient staff, but the owner is milking a dead cow with this hotel. It was ready for a good refurb about 30 Years ago. Cold , dated rooms, lots of lights not working around hotel and health club threadbare and tatty.

The property was very dated and in need of some serious decoration and renovation. The hotel was deadly quiet and had little life. The room itself was in need of refurbing. The bed was old and uncomfortable, the shower didn’t work properly, no ironing facilities in the room. I had to ask for a kettle which should how long the room had been unused. Great location for where I needed to bed but the place needs a serious facelift to attract returning customers.
