Great food, staff and pool!

Wonderful hotel. We were visiting from North Yorkshire for a friends wedding. The room was clean and the air conditioning was a god send! My daughter loved the swimming pool and the staff were very friendly and she loved chatting to them. The restaurant was good, slight delay in my daughter’s food, but they whipped it out fast once I’d asked where it was! The play corner was also very much enjoyed (some pieces missing from the toys but still enjoyed by her!) and breakfast was very nice. It was amazing that she was able to eat free whilst staying there too. Would 100% come back when visiting our friends again.

Hotel fine. Restaurant service very poor.

The hotel was fine. Room was a great temperature considering it was a very hot day. Bed was comfortable. Gym was compact but good. Pool was good. The sauna was good, albeit located inside the changing rooms which disappointed my wife as she wanted us to go in together. The breakfast was ok. The "Juice" was watered down so it was almost like an apple had been waved at some water and they'd called it cloudy apple juice. We went to the restaurant for dinner and were down a table very quickly then preceded to wait for 20 minutes for someone to take our order. It wasn't that busy, I'd estimate two thirds of the tables were empty. The problem was that there was only one pad for taking orders. But there were two members of staff and both were bringing drinks to tables when it would have been far more efficient to have one taking orders. As it was, we left and went to a local pub in walking distance. As a hotel, for the price I can't fault it. But the restaurant is poor and the spa facilities should be made more clear.

Extremely disappointing stay.

Air conditioning broken (had a maintenance sign flashing), no fans, too hot to sleep. Also I booked on the fact that it had a pool and spa, but it was closed for swimming lessons the entire window I had available during my stay, without forewarning. I stay in a lot of Holiday Inns but this is by some distance the worst I've ever stayed in.

Swimming pool ava7

I booked this hotel due to the onsite swimming pool. Having 2 young children who wake early, i thought it would benefit us to have the option of swimming in the morning. After arriving in the fitness suite at 6.45am, we were informed the pool is adults only until 9am and then an aqua aerobics class was scheduled from 0930 til 1030, thus providing a 30min window for swimming. Having plans for the day this was not convenient or catering to our needs . Had the lack of early morning availability been available on eithe Hotels.com or Holiday Inn websites, i would have booked a different hotel.

Staff were really helpful and friendly, and we felt really well looked after. Children were really well catered for. Dinner was reasonably priced and good quality with children eating free. Comfortable bed, not so comfortable pull out sofa. The hotel was clean and definitely exceeded our expectations for the night.
