The hotel itself is substantial, with 255 rooms spread across five floors, all with en-suite bathrooms and a lift serving every level. Accessible rooms are available, and pets are welcome. Rooms are straightforward rather than lavish, but they do the job for a night or several.

What guests say
The hotel was to good standards. The food was decent enough considering it was buffet it was freshly brought out regular. The rooms were decent. The only downfall was we had some drunk nutter in the room next door kicking off til 4am But the staff dealt with it appropriately and the manager give 50% refund. And the spa was to great quality the next day. Overall good.

Had a spa day here for three. The building and facilities are a little dated, but the service was outstanding. Staff were friendly and relaxed and we felt really comfortable. The gym is small but well equipped. Changing rooms and showers were clean and bright and the swimming pool is a good temperature. I enjoyed a facial which was one of the best I've had.

Had read lots of bad reviews so we were pleasantly surprised when we arrived. Fast check in no waiting as we got our room keys on the coach before we got of. Straight to our room which we were dreading but everything was spotless. Looked like it had just had a new makeover. New bathroom sink and toilet bedroom furniture a bit dated but sheets etc all spotless. Large room so plenty of space. Food nothing to brag about but it was passable..

Reception staff do not go overboard with warm words and courtesy- very basic manners. Rooms clean and comfy though very dated. Bathroom needed a major refit - loose ceiling tiles and tired decor. Evening meal the worst restaurant meal I have ever had- reminiscent of the worst kind of school dinner- literally shrivelled vegetables and gravy skin the consistency of huge oil slick. Wine from the bar quite honestly undrinkable - like vinegar. We had paid for the airport parking deal but still had to pay quite a substantial amount for the transfer shuttle service! I would never stay here again- relatively cheap but fairly unpleasant.
