    Shower in room 310 - kept turning itself down and from a nice flow to a dribble kept having to mess about with controls which in turn gave me a cold shower every time i needed to mess with it! Rooms a bit dated now.

    Nice comfy bed, quiet and nice bar and restaurant staff friendly and helpful

    *Shower was poor, no water pressure *Small table in the room was about to collapse. *Thin quilt. *We ate in the hotel restaurant… refund on one of our meals due to plate full of fat… not hard to rest a burger once cooked! Manager apologetic.

    Nice room over looking golf course, saw the Deer. Breakfast was really good.

    The spa is very basic, wouldn’t visit it as a ‘spa trip’ as you’d be disappointed. More like public swimming pool with a shed sauna and hot tub on timer. The hotel is very dated but the beds were very comfortable. The restaurant js good but expensive for what it is.

    The location was lovely, the staff were great and couldn’t do enough for you and the food was good too. Great options at breakfast they have everything. The bed was super comfy! And was only 10 mins from the NEC so that was great.

    The hotel was a little tired and rooms were rather dated. A bit overpriced for what it was. A very pleasant stay though.

    The lift was broken and we were on the 3rd floor. I have a heart condition so it wasn't ideal. At breakfast the coffee machines were either limited menu or being attended too.

    The room was lovley and clean.Staff were great. Food was lovely especially the a la carte evening dinner. The leisure facilities were great too.

    The al a carte menu wasnt great, didnt have many options and had to pay additional money for certain things. Possibly they could make some changes to menu to improve it. Loved the cheesecake for dessert, probably the best thing from the menu.

    Really nice and accommodating staff. I booked the room last minute for my boyfriends birthday and asked them if they can do anything to the room and they had put some sweets on a plate with a happy birthday message and a card which i thought was very sweet considering i only booked it on the day. The breakfast buffet was very nice and had a lot of options.

    As a Marriott Rewards member it was disappointing not to get any points as the hotel is no longer part of Marriott. The bed was less comfortable than usual

    We have been here many times and know what it is like.

    Shower would be better if it had a flexible hose as well as the fixed head Fridge in room did not work.

    breakfast - good, only suggested improvement would be bread rolls to eat with cold meats and cheese. Also thin slices of cheese instead of a lump of cheese. Room - very good
