    OK for what we needed but practical rather than a more upmarket experience. So a little overpriced.

    You have to pay extra for anything extra eg bottled water or tissues in room, fridge, car parking etc. and the room wasn’t cheap in the first place. Heating was unnecessarily on and fairly noisy from the bars outside (until midnight and morning servicing)when opening the window. We did turn radiator off but still hot. Handles of bathroom door were falling off. (Did inform staff of this but wasn’t fixed)

    Location was good as we had to be close to Russell's Hall Hospital. Room was spacious. Staff pleasant and the restaurant reasonably priced and reasonably good

    No fridge in the room. It would be nice to store cold drinks. So much noise in the corridor at night.

    The location was good and easy to find. Parking was excellent. The front desk was polite and helpful when booking in.

    The decor in places are a little dated but kept up very well. Service at dinner time can be a little slow even though the restaurant was empty, but the staff and servers are very helpful and accommodating.

    Room was clean & comfortable. Amenities are good. Convenient to merry hill shopping, the canal, and some of the business estates. I have used this hotel several times for work trips and haven't had a bad experience yet.

    Pleasant canal view
    • Business trip

    • Standard Waterfront King Room
    • Stayed 1 night

    The room was very hot & the fan provided didn't really cool us down. No AirCon & the window didn't open. The hand wash & hand lotion dispensers were empty, but I suppose unless it's pointed out the cleaners won't be aware as the bottles aren't see through. Otherwise the room was spotlessly clean. Breakfast was poor for the price. No eggs, basic sausages, coffee machines not working, toast machine burnt the bread, poor choice compared to other hotels who charge a similar price of £12.50. The tables hadn't been cleared so we had to move dirty crockery to sit down. It wasn't busy or near end of service so I couldn't see an excuse for this other than they seemed quite short-staffed. Maybe it was an off-day & I was just unlucky but I didn't feel I got value for money!

    Friendly staff on check-in. Good size room & comfy bed. Convenient location near the Merry Hill shopping centre. Added bonus of the leisure facilities, which we enjoyed, & a couple of pubs/eateries close by. We opted for a canal view which was nice. Very good value for money - even with the small additional charge for parking.

    Having to pay for parking was annoying. The room looked tired. Items (eg TV and mirror) had been moved but the gaps behind them not painted. Definitely time for renovation and upgrading.

    Comfortable beds. Very close to Merry Hill shopping centre and the Black Country museum. Great breakfast. When we complained about loud noise the adjoining room at 3am in the morning the staff acted immediately and the noise stopped.

    Enjoyable stay with nice pool and spa facilities

    Would have liked to have a herbal tea in the tea selection. Only real thing to be aware of is that the bars the other side of the canal do play music very late. (It was still going around 1am when I fell asleep - although this was a weekend so maybe it was especially late.) Luckily the soundproofing is quite good, so with the windows shut it wasn't too loud. Definitely still audible though - it didn't bother me too much and I enjoyed having the view of a bit of the canal, but light sleepers might prefer to request a room on the other side.

    Comfy bed, clean room and friendly staff. I enjoyed using the pool/sauna facilities. Everything is quite small in the leisure facilities but it wasn't too crowded even on a weekend and they provide towels/locks for the lockers so it was a nice experience. The location is probably easier to access by car, as it's about an hour's bus ride from either Birmingham or Wolverhampton. (Only a few minutes walk from the bus stop though.) That said, there is lots of interest directly in the area! The hotel backs on to the canal, where there are also bars etc. On the other side, it's just across a couple of roads and a few minutes walk to a big shopping centre where one can get virtually everything needed. And, the nicest surprise, just beyond the shopping centre is a big nature reserve, with woods, bluebells etc which was really nice to explore and all walking distance from the hotel. Lots of history too from the canal/mining days!

    Bedroom was rather tired and old fashioned You had to flush the toilet at least 6 times before it actually flushed I can’t remember the last time I stayed in a hotel that had a shower curtain We ate in the restaurant but the food wasn’t good we chose steak and it was extremely chewy There was no attention to detail Breakfast was the same we had empty plates on our table that just weren’t collected
