Absolutely lovely stay

We were greeted with a lovely warm welcome by a lovely male receptionist, he was very helpful and reassuring too when a incident occurred, which was not the hotel's fault. The hotel itself was very clean and so was our hotel room. Our hotel room had a bath too which was a lovely suprise, the beds were warm and comfy. I honestly would stay there again and recommend to friends too. The only thing the hotel doesn't have a lift so it made it awkward going upstairs and downstairs with suitcases and a pram however the male receptionist did carry our luggage upstairs for us.

The staff lovely,, I felt really welcome, they genuinely care about their customers, it was nice to chat to them,, they answered any qs& queries, the room was stunning, I was put in the nicest room, breakfast come with the stay, it's a wedding venue, it's nice to see the guest get ready for their weddings, there's a town 30mins down the rd, with a nice Romanian cafe, The reason why I didn't score it 10/10 was just because from the motorway, the fumes got in to the room.. we were put right next door to someone, who happened to snore, it is on the M11 where it's hard to get to.. unfortunately I wouldn't trust Uber& the restraunts not open until the evening

Very very average at best

Like many Best Western Hotels the place is old and not brought up to modern standards. Shower was OK at best, room very sparse and desk too small to use. TV was small but just about adequate and still baffles me that hotel rooms do not have USB ports inext to the bed or at least in wall sockets as standard in 2025. Staff were nice and hotel was clean but these big old buildings are just that. Big, old and too expensive to bring up to modern standards. This also made the flooring very noisy as people walked about at night

First time I stayed in December I was given a drinks voucher. Have since stayed the last two weeks and none given. Two bags of crisps and two bottles of water are in the room on arrival but I have been told that they are not replaced until the third day. This week my room did not have water or crisps. The receptionist brought water but said she couldn’t find the crisps. I was offered a drinks voucher or 10% of a meal. I did not accept either as I was eating out and driving. Not sure if auto close doors need adjusting on some rooms or if it’s ignorant guests slamming doors late at night and early hours of the morning. My door seemed fine. Not sure what it will be like yet to stay in summer as there is no aircon. Breakfast is good although I think the warmers were not switched on one day last week as the hot food wasn’t hot food. I stayed here first about 11 years ago and is wasn’t the best. Run down. So I used the premier inn until I gave this place another look. Some money has been spent upgrading the rooms and it’s so much better than before.
