Will stay again sometime.
Pros:

Room was comfy and clean. After going abroad for a week, it was wonderful to have tea/coffee in the room! Only slight demerit (in comparison to where we were in Majorca) was that the single beds are a bit wider abroad. 😊

Decent location, good value for money, but noisy.
Pros:

Hotel is in a good location, with plenty of food options around it. It was clean and modern, with all the amenities you would need.

Cons:

You can hear everything going on above (if you’re ground floor) and around you which, if people are arriving late / running a 5k above you (as in our case) then it can be difficult to get a good nights sleep.

Pros:

Chambre fonctionnelle, globalement propre et confortable. Un très grand parking devant et énormément de restaurants à proximité.

Cons:

Quelques éléments abîmés comme beaucoup de marques sur les murs, une des lampes de la salle de bain qui ne fonctionnait pas ou encore des rideaux de fenêtre déchirés.

Not good enough
Pros:

The room was fine

Cons:

The food, again like last year, shortages from menu, told by staff you had run out of various items that was on menu.
Had a carvery on first night and you could have soled your boots with the roast beef. Was told it would get refunded but never got refund.
Second night we went elsewhere for food, wont be returning to Sweet Chestnut for food.
