Hotels & Accommodation near Coventry Transport Museum

This is a character filled hotel. It is stylish and wall decoration includes large old photographs of the days of the paper. The atrium roofed dining room is beautiful with a border of old newspaper pages between the ceiling and glass roof. Rooms are very nice with wood features and a pleasant colour palette. Bathroom has a nice large shower. Unfortunately the breakfast disappointed. The coffee machines served undrinkable latte and the worst hotel coffee I have ever tasted. I tried the pork sausages and they disintegrated into an unpleasant paste and they were salty. The other items were ok. I arrived 9am with still an hour and a half of time left and there was no scrambled egg left, there were no Danish pastries and the only fruit pieces were 1 apple and maybe a pear. I got my awful coffee and sat down watching the two staff standing ready to take guest room numbers. They were friendly and cleared tables very efficiently but it was clear they had not been allocated separate jobs including checking the buffet and letting the kitchen know when dishes are low. I had to tell them. The eggs thankfully came out quickly. On day two there were three staff and the scrambled eggs dish was empty, as was the mushrooms and the Danish. Two staff stood taking room numbers or clearing tables, the third took special orders. I did not see them proactively getting items replenished and had to tell them again. The eggs had to be cooked and the Danish never arrived. Poor management, not staff.

Staff OK ,shops non-stop nearby

Great location and friendly staff made this a very comfortable stay.
