Ivy Bush Royal Hotel  

Staff were welcoming and friendly. What the hotel lacked in personality they made up for. The room price was reasonable.

Very old fashioned decor. Small bedroom and very hot, couldn't open window. Breakfast had overcooked hot buffet, served and left standing, shame because the choice was good.

Not an executive room, noisy in morning as above kitchen, small and uncomfortable bed, very tired decor throughout hotel, breakfast area verybshabby and service shocking. If two star and £40 ok but for £95 is significantly overpriced, will not return.

Full english breakfast was wholesome, well prepared and always fresh. The staff were helpful when we required a taxi and none were available - they provided hotel van. Rooms were clean, reasonable towels (as opposed to old worn and cloths) and had lots of lights… useful on a dull day.

Paying £10 a day for internet - this is over the top. If not free, should be around £4-6/day or 10/stay. The room i had was a long way down lots of corridors … and on the main road. No views. Beds were so soft/springy I almost disappeared into it.

Breakfast and room service evening meal was excellent

The room was too hot even with the window open.

The hotel is getting very tired. Fan did not work in bathroom. Bathroom tiles were black in corner next to shower. Window has not been cleaned for sometime. Breakfast was not hot. Even though I ate at 7.30am it was only luke warm.

Staff were unobtrusive and yet pleasant and helpful when necessary. I felt able to come and go as I pleased.

Nothing, all was fine during my short stay.

Plenty of space to chill out. Food was good, room very comfortable. Wish I could have stayed longer

Convenient for theatre show and all needs catered for. Excellent buffet breakfast,

very helpful staff, breakfast was fantastic, felt very at home!x

Friendly staff at breakfast.

Old fashioned decor in bedroom. Very soft lumpy bed.

Good food and friendly staff

The welcome at reception on arrival was excellent and the member of staff very helpful. There was a coach party staying and we thought an evening meal might have been busy but as independant guests we were seated in a separate room which made our meal very pleasant. The food quality was also excellent and the staff very helpful.

We booked an executive room which was very spacious and clean although the decor needs updating and does appear a little tired. The staff member at check out was very offhand and did not even bother to ask if we had had a nice stay or even thanked us for our custom, we were just grateful that she was not there when we checked in.

Good car parking Exellent breakfast
