Pros:

location

Cons:

The room was not clean — there was dust on the carpet. Also, I was very surprised that the hotel does not provide water in the room. In all my experience, I have never stayed at a hotel where guests are expected to go out into the hallway just to get drinking water.

Disappointing.
Pros:

Not very much. Asked for a twin room for my daughter and I, and we never got it. We got a double. We were supposed to have a free breakfast for the inconvenience, but we had to leave early, and no food arranged before we left.

Cons:

Zero attention to detail. Felt like there was a lack of management.

Disappointed, reviews mislead me to stay
Pros:

Very nice staff. Always with a smile. Nice location with pretty much everything you would need close by.
Bed comfy and nice pillows.

Cons:

Room dated and not like pictures on site. Cigarette burns on furniture and very tatty room repairs.
Bathroom was dirty and sink plug hole full of hairs and scum. Towels worn out.
Bathroom was so outdated and tiles and fitting cracked and broken everywhere.
Shower and bath dirty.
I have pictures to justify my review. As many times, we are fobbed off with a lame response from establishments.
I work hard and self employed so I pay for my stays.
This was supposed to be executive suite. It is certainly not.
Hotel response will be we are updating rooms and refurbishing. Doesn’t matter I should not be charged almost £150 for a poor quality room/stay.
Breakfast was cold and poor quality. Left most food and had toast and sausage.
Unfortunately could not do anything when I told reception.

Really disappointed with this “hotel”
Pros:

Car park was empty. Always good for a guest.

Cons:

Room advertises a TV with satellite channels. No signal for the duration. They tried to tell me it was a tv provider issue. They didn’t know is that I work for that provider and this was NOT the case. Just fobbed off. Had friends staying, one had signal the others didn’t. The room was freezing. Could smell cigarette smoke going to the lift. Room 222 is where I stayed. Radiator not working, freezing room. Was offered a drink for my son and I in the restaurant because of no tv. I don’t drink, and my son is 15. Based on my experience here I decided to dine out of the hotel. I would not stay here again if it was free. €189 per night , I feel robbed.

Lovely Get Away
Pros:

We had a lovely stay in this hotel this weekend. We stayed in a lifestyle suite and it was so clean. Some finishes could be updated eg. Sealant around the back and paint on the bottom of the doors flaking but a grand 3 star stay. The staff set it aside from other places we stayed. Everyone was so friendly and welcoming. The food in off the bone was delicious and so reasonably priced. The staff in there were fabulous to. Breakfast was delicious and there was great selection. There were some works going on near our room but no disturbances.

Great meeting space
Pros:

Recently stayed for a business trip, was facilitating a conference being held in the hotel's meeting space.

Great parking for the attendees and guests, Off The Bone lovely for dinner, conference facilities are nice and modern.

I stayed in a classic room and could do with a little updating but service throughout the hotel was lovely, breakfast was tasty and room so clean.

Marta that looks after meetings was very helpful with AV set up. Overall a nice stay and very convenient for conferences.
