Clifton Hotel

The manner of the staff, the quality of the rooms, the beds and the fittings were all poor value for money so I would say that this hotel has nothing to recommend it at all.

Late on in the evening I had to ask to be moved to another room as the noise from the patio attached to the bar below was very intrusive. The next room did not have this problem but suffered from very noisy pipes throughout the night. The beds were very poor quality and proved extremely uncomfortable. My partner and I slept very badly. The room was not very clean - for example there was dried snot on the wall by the beds and in the bathroom by the sink. The breakfast was also poor value. There was a limited choice and the orange juice was undrinkable as it had a terrible chemical taste. Avoid this hotel at all costs.

Hotel staff are friendly,and check in was quick,however the executive single room was not up to scratch,i have thrown better TV's away,you would think by now that most would have flat screen,with an outside arial !

The coffe shop and restaurant.

Wardrobe door was broken, a drawer on the chest of drawers was broken, drill holes in the walls with nothing in them, the sheet on the bed was badly torn, the room was above the kitchen and as such we received constant fumes and smells, we did not like the fact that there was a plugin room freshener (so obviously the hotel was aware of the kitchen smells) and on leaving we were not asked if we had had a pleasant stay.

Excellent breakfast !

Smokey smell in room

Good location.

Poor decoration.

I was impressed by the professional manner of staff, even when it was late at night. The bar downstairs was particularly full of vitality (normally something I avoid) and pleasant.

I think that a repaint of the room I was in, would have improved my rating from good to excellent.

Friendly and accommodating staff, quick check in, quiet, clean room, fruit in room, good car parking,

It's quite unique which is what I look for. Top quality and unusual cafe downstairs as part of the hotel. I really felt properly looked after their staff are all excellent. Hotel small enough to really feel at home.

provison of decaf americano, tea and coffee in room, pleasant staff, Fruit in room

stains on bed quilt, carpet stain from shower, windows peeling in need of upkeep

The staff was so brilliant that the fact that the furniture and the design was poor didn't seem important after 1 day there. They solved any issues i might have had and did so with a big smile on their faces!!

There is no safe box in the room.

I did not get a chance to spend more time in the hotel as i was out first thing in the morning and home late due to the conference. It would be more nice if tea bags/coffee would be provided but instead they had filter which i was not familiar to make.

there were unpleasant smell in the bathroom,i had to leave the door open to get fresh air. The reception was lovely then you go to the corridor for the bedroom, there is unplesaant smell around especially in the lift. I regularly stay in Washington Hotel but unfortunately it was booked out, i would go to Washington Hotel again.

Sight seeing & shoping

The lighting in my room was poor. Couldn't see to put my make-up on

The breakfast selection was poor, no choice of cereal, no fruit salad or yoghurt. Over priced for what I received. I would have been charged for 2 days car parking even though I only stayed for less than 24hours - fortunately I managed to park on the road.
