The room was spacious and clean. Bathroom was most impressive. Got confused about the arrangement for food; needed to take more care on signing in but i am now of that age! Staff were helpful and friendly throughout the Holiday Inn, South Cheshire. Thanks.

Stay here quite often, overall its good. Rooms vary enormously in quality, maybe they are undertaking improvements? The last stay was in an Executive room (needed a desk) in previous visits this has had a few welcome touches, fridge etc. This time there wasn’t so much as a USB socket. Breakfast made up for a flat phone though!
Okay, but that's as far as it goes.
Several faults with room. mostly minor but didn't appreciate having to sit in the room in coats due to the lack of heating in the room.

Prompt check in. Hotel room cold and thermostat didn’t appear to work. I think it was best to switch off and rely on radiator. Breakfast area was busy and staff seemed out out when asking for a table with family of 8
Nice clean spcious room.Good supply of tea and coffee replenished daily..

Unfortunately, the porridge tasted undercooked, and the juices were very watered down with little flavour. It would be great if the porridge could be cooked a bit longer and the juices made stronger.
