Perfect location, clean and modern.

Easy and quick check-in. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Car park pass sorted immediately (a few minutes walk away). Free drink for signing up to loyalty scheme. Room - lovely and modern. Mini fridge and tea/coffee plus kettle etc. Didn’t try food in the restaurant as had this booked to do. Very close to town, RIII Visitors Centre and Highcross Shopping Centre. Would definitely recommend this hotel.

Great staff.

Lovely stay, staff were great at breakfast. Lovely blonde lady and maybe the manager lady? Great service and friendly. Only thing that could be better is allergen labels on breakfast items. All in all clean and lovely stay.
