firstly the positives: friendly staff, lovely bathroom in our executive room, a nice traditional feel. now for the frustrations: - bedroom area looked really tired, - hotel entrance was really difficult to find - 2 weddings on for both nights that we stayed and we were ushered to the residents bar with no bar staff and no atmoshere, we felt... more

We booked into the holiday inn as we were seeing u2 at don valley. the staff at check in were polite and seemed very efficient though they asked if we wanted an alarm call for the morning so we requested one and we never got it luckily i'd set another alarm. The room was a reasonable size very chintzy with... more

This hotel is gorgeous and full of character. First impressions were excellent - the welcome was warm and personal. Any queries I had regarding local places of interest, or hotel facilities, were answered courteously and promptly. My room was beautiful - large and airy and tastefully decorated. My bathroom was a joy. This hotel is a move away from the... more

I had a deluxe room which had a lovely bathroom and good bed. Great amount of parking and easy access to Sheffield etc. Whats not... more

as other reviews say, we found the approach road to the hotel very difficult to find being able to see the hotel, but not get there, even with a sat nav ..so homework is a good idea. having got there we had a lovely stay..nice room , quiet, spacious and well equipped, another plus was the large car park.. and... more

Had a wonderfull weekend stay at the royal vic after getting a good deal on the holiday inn website. Although the hotel is not the easiest to find in sheffield we rang for directions and the guys on the desk talked us through the final few mins of the journey, It seems such a shame that what is probably one... more
