Clean room, friendly and helpful staff. Free tea and coffee whilst you wait for your room. My only criticism is my room wasn't quite ready at checkin as they were busy, however this was quickly sorted. I would stay here again.

Not the largest of rooms but clean and well laid out with a good en-suite and air conditioning. The bed was very comfortable. The shower was perfectly warm. Breakfast was a good buffet. Parking, once you found the venue, was easy. Staff were friendly and helpful but unobtrusive. Overall, a lovely stay.

Really splendid stay as always and is my go to place for a guaranteed well rested stay when on business. I really appreciated that the receptionist upon check-in remembered my previous room during my previous stay and placed me back there during my current stay. It’s this type of attentive service and quality rooms why I always return when travelling and doing business near by.

Very happy with my stay for the British Grand Prix. Used the gym in the morning which was open early which was great and I really enjoyed my breakfast served fresh and nice and early. Nice bar area and dinner that I had was very nice. Should I be near would use this hotel again definitely. Thank you

We stayed for two nights, and everything was very clean; the breakfast buffet was extensive, the bar staff were attentive and friendly, and the bar food was excellent too. The room was spotless and everything was great, though the only thing I would change is the beds. In my opinion, the double beds are small and the mattresses uncomfortable—when two people share one, we both ended up rolling into the middle of the bed; I hope that makes sense. But Everything else was perfect.
