Pros:

Rooms were grand,clean and spacious

Cons:

I had booked 2 double rooms,with not far to walk as my elderly parents were with me and also my sister who had a knee replacement 2 weeks previous,but we ended up on second floor with a bit of a walk,We were staying over for a funeral,and on arrival back to the hotel we went to the bar for drinks probably 16 of us,it was around 8 o clock,the young lady was putting the chairs up on the tables and hovering around us🤔Next morning as we were heading early for the funeral we headed for breakfast food wasn't great or plenty full,And there was no water at all throughout hotel,so we couldn't shower or use toilets,So rant over,Won't stay in a Clayton Hotel in the future !!!!!
