Clive

United Kingdom, February 2024

6.6/10

The hotel's location is fantastic, being close to the shopping area, restaurants, and a short stroll to the theaters in town. While the rooms were noisy due to the nearby train station and lacked comfortable seating, the buffet breakfast was impressive. However, the room was basic and not the best value for money compared to other options.

Rooms

5.0

The room's proximity to the train station made it very loud, affecting my sleep. It was bare bones with no cozy seating, and the air conditioning didn't work well.

7.2/10

The hotel is conveniently located close to the town center and offers shopping opportunities nearby. The rooms, though slightly outdated and missing toiletries and water, were clean but had a strong smell of cigarette smoke and alcohol. The staff was friendly and helpful, but their early loud talking was disturbing. The dining experience was a mix of lovely options and overcooked items. Overall, the hotel offers good value for the money, though parking expenses should be considered.

7.2/10

My stay at the hotel was quite comfortable with clean and spacious rooms, although the front side faced loud music from nearby until the early hours. The service was friendly and helpful, but the strong smell of cannabis near the reception was off-putting. The location was convenient for reaching attractions like Queen's Street train station, but challenging to find for those unfamiliar with the area. The dining experience was satisfactory, with some room for improvement in the presentation. The facilities were decent overall.

7.4/10

The hotel provided everything I needed with bright rooms and clean surroundings, but being right next to the railway line was a bit cramped. The service, especially from Azzura, was outstanding, making our stay very pleasant despite the lack of a car park. The location was excellent for city center access, although the external laundry baskets were a downside. The dining experience was a mix, with some days better than others, and the facilities met basic needs.

7.8/10

The hotel had clean and well-appointed rooms, but being located near the railway line could be a downside, especially on rugby days. The service was excellent and efficient, with a standout performance from Azzura. The location was convenient for the motorpoint arena and shopping areas. The dining options were good value, though some minor improvements could be made. Overall, a decent choice for the price.

The service was top-notch, particularly thanks to Azzura, who ensured a lovely room and great food. However, the lack of a car park was a slight disappointment, but the NCP opposite with a hotel discount provided a practical solution.

6.4/10

My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were shabby with thin carpets and curtains that didn't block out the light, but at least they were clean and good value for the money paid. The service was a bit of a letdown when they charged us for extra breakfasts but redeemed itself with helpful and friendly staff. The location was good for accessing Motor Point and the city center, although being close to train tracks made it noisy in the mornings. The dining options were limited, but the breakfast was reasonably priced and enjoyable. Overall, it was an okay experience considering the cost.
