Excellent location. Fast, friendly and efficient check in. Good selection for breakfast and the food was excellent.

Sharon United Kingdom

Staff very friendly especially Ryan who was serving breakfast

Clive United Kingdom

Staff was amazing. Very clean rooms shame the fridge didn’t work in room 506 and the lamp was hanging off the bed frame. Could do with another chair at the table but was lovely will rebook

Grace United Kingdom

Location was fantastic if you’re going for drinks, or even having a late night date in a restaurant. The A/C in the room wasn’t working with the really warm weather, but was given a fan for the room which was fantastic. Amazing staff, even security guards.

Liam United Kingdom

We can highly recommend the Clayton hotel for its location, the cleanliness and the staff could not do enough for you. A very enjoyable experience.

Susan United Kingdom

Very clean and well organised. Lovely spacious room and comfy beds.

Karl United Kingdom

The whole stay was outstanding, staff was brilliant, door security in the night were very kind and room service was incredible

James United Kingdom

Loved the idea of sending our breakfasts to our room because of Covid. Great personal touch

Emma United Kingdom

Very nice and polite personnel, good breakfast and good location - a few hundred metres from the rail station. Despite our fear that it would be noisy, we didn't hear passing trains in the room.

Alexander United Kingdom

Booked for work on a strict budget (that’s the LAA for you). Excellent value for money. Location was great. I know the city well and the hotel places you in the very centre. Facilities were excellent and would have been more so but for the Covid-19 crisis. The Pandemic was managed very well indeed, with clear effort having been made to account for and overcome those specific issues.
