The food was excellent, as we're the staff in the restuarant. The noise from the M6, which I realise you cannot change! Some of the rooms were a bit dated- for eg the wardrobes.

The general ambience. The helpful & friendly staff. The bedroom. The views (even allowing for the M6) were beautiful in the snow. The bolster/pillow too hard for my liking. Being from North Staffs I was disappointed the the crockery appeared not to be from The Potteries, particularly given the proximity.

Surroundings are good, nice location The reception staff were unhelpful. I complained about the cold showers on the evening I arrived and the next morning it was cold again and I couldnt shower ! its unacceptable to stay ina 4 * hotel and not have any hot running water. To be told that it would be taken up with the Maintenance and fill a questionnaire was an insult !

Exceptional attention to our needs and comfort. We attended an 80th birthday lunch, and the staff,s attention to detail was remarkable, especially to the elderly. Noisy (air-con?) was disturbing but we did mention it to receptionist on departure. It didn't d detract from our enjoyment.

They provide Electric Vehicle (EV) charging so you can stay overnight and your car is fully charged like it is at home. That and it's a really pleasant hotel - beautiful surroundings, just off the M6 so handy for transit stays, excellent food and elegant rooms. Mattress was odd at the edge - problem with springs? I am sure it was just in my room and will get fixed

The whole atmosphere was very pleasant. I have stayed before & will stay again lack of seating dining places in the lounge bar. Tables being occupied for long periods by single people or couples, preventing others [me] from sitting down & enjoying a meal & drink

Beautiful setting even though it was right next to the M6, which we were never aware of. Sitting on the canal side in the pretty village of Acton Trussell with barges slowly going up and down was a delight. The large pond in front was home to families of ducks and swans. There is a pond to one side too. Very nice breakfast watching all of this activity on a morning is different. The bedroom was enormous with sofa, two armchairs and coffee table as well as an enormous bed. Large bathroom with both bath and bigger than usual shower. The bed which was enormous and luxurious showed signs of needing a new mattress and restaurant menu in the room or at least on the reception counter would be useful. Minor gripe!
