I like this hotel and will use it again. However i was disappointed that a sofa bed was left made up in my room when i am a solo traveller. It meant i did not have a sofa to sit on. In addition the sauna was out of use. This hotel is not a cheap option but i expect better when you are paying a pre.ier rate.

I recommend the Premium Room

We had a Premium Room this time which was excellent in most respects. The bed had an undersized mattress on it for some reason, which made it a bit too narrow for two people (may be different in other rooms). Other than that it was very comfortable.

Very good

Very good, friendly staff, good breakfast, dinner was also good. The only thing I can fault is that glasses kept being left in the corridors by guests, bit of a hazard for other guests and need to be cleared, but really the fault of guests…you wouldn’t leave glasses in the corridors at home would you?

The short break was booked so I could spend time with my Grandchildren. The kids loved there stay and swam twice a day, the kids ate free with a paying adult which saved a lot of money. Food was great and the kids really enjoyed the amount of different choices to choose from. Staff were polite friendly and very helpful! Our domestic help made us feel very comfortable and didn’t complain when we returned to our room before she had finished her jobs ! Helped me with the A/C and the bathroom shower which was really appreciated as I didn’t know how to work them. Definitely would stay again.

Good Family Hotel

Spacious, comfy bedroom for our family of 4. We all enjoyed the swimming pool facilities, as well as the TNT football, which the staff kindly put on for me to watch Palace's famous Community Shield victory over Liverpool, while being served a number of perfectly chilled draught Stellas from the bar. The breakfast was also reasonably priced (children up to 14 eat free) and very tasty. Thank you for a memorable stay!
