Amazing switch of from life right next to the QE Hospital.
Pros:

We really loved staying here. It was quiet, clean and welcoming. The whole décor of the place felt as if it was giving us a hugh hug. It was the break we needed in a spacious cosy room. Loved that the hotel had a separate entrance to the pub. Nice quiet area just next to the QE hospital.

Cons:

Can't think of anything we didn't like.

Pros:

Room was clean, one woman staff was very friendly on initial check in

Cons:

I was in the middle of an important work video call in my room at about 3:30pm, the door was locked and check in had been completed a few hours earlier so the room was mine. The staff at hotel opened the door loudly by attempting to open the door many times and then using a key to unlock it, proceeded to enter the room while I was in there during a work call!! I could’ve been in there doing anything/ getting changed etc and the staff just barged in, checked something in the bathroom and left and I never saw them again - I thought this was very odd and it made me worried about who else was going into the room when I wasn’t there!

Noisey pub downstairs, but I did stay over a weekend.

Bed sunk in the middle.

Awful….. literally could have cried when we saw the state of the place but with three kids in tow, we had no choice but
Pros:

It had a car park

Cons:

This is not a family hotel…..it is a pub that rents out rooms to workers from away.

Hands down, the funnest hotel I've stayed in
Pros:

Sometimes you randomly stumble across places that you would describe as an 'institution' - the Sutherlands is one of those places. Not so much a hotel and more of a community hub, the staff were welcoming, fun, and made us feel instantly at home. Arriving late on a Saturday night, the function room was in full swing - the bar had a great selection of drinks and the music was great. Once it was time for bed, the bedrooms were quiet, comfortable, clean and well-equipped with a massive bathroom and an excellent shower.

Cons:

Perhaps a slightly faster check in ;-)

Served the purpose for a one night stay but will not recommend this place to anyone.
Pros:

Very nice clean room and comfortable. Thank you for the microwave.

Cons:

The bar and games rooms. Not welcoming and no dining options. We felt as a paying customer that we were a nuisance. Location was not ideal.Thank goodness there was a Sainsburys near by to get food.

Good value, comfortable modern rooms.
Pros:

The room was very clean, comfortable and modern.

Cons:

The exterior appearance of the buiking is a little off putting. Breakfast couldn't be served until 9.30, which was too late for us.
