Travel / Stay - Family Visit
The stay was really nice and comfortable. Unfortunately there were quite a few dog hairs on the carpet in our bedroom. Although it’s pet friendly I think the cleanliness was not to the standard it should be. Staff were excellent and rectified the problem straight away in particular a member of staff called “Jenny” a real gem.

Lovely modern hotel with great transport links into the city Centre making for a very affordable but convenient alternative to staying in the Centre itself.

Modern, basic great hotel
Their main picture is their swimming pool so I think many people pick it for this reason. I personally just wanted to use the sauna and at the weekend, it was practically impossible. Swimming pool and sauna were very busy, with kids even at 8:50pm (closes at 9pm). If you have kids, great. But otherwise, I'd only stay here if you don't want to use these facilities. They have a great gym (all Technogym equipment) but you can only access it by requesting a separate card which is an unnecessary faff. Really nice decor so good value overall. Our room was right across from station platform which was fun and unexpected.

Familiar Territory
I have stayed at the hotel many times. The rooms are comfortable and the staff are excellent, and consistently so. Some of the lounge furnishings are a little careworn and seven or so odd years after opening, they could be replaced while the range of spirits on the bar could be wider. But as a place to stay the connections are excellent.
