Just been reading that all the staff, who thought that they were going to be laid off for 6 weeks during refurbishment have been permanently laid off. I found that the staff were very friendly and helpful. I had a double room to myself, and it had a fridge and tea/coffee making facilities. The only downside was the stained carpet.... more

THE GOOD: Location: the hotel is situated across the road from Peterborough train station and less than a 5 minute walk to the shopping centre. Price: Special offer of a double room for single occupancy with en-suite bathroom and a full cooked breakfast included for 40 pounds inclusive. En-suite bathroom was large and spotless with new fittings. The staff was... more

On the face of it, a lovely looking hotel with many interesting features. However, a very sad hotel, about to close for a refurb and staff very worried about their job security. Their worry was plapable. The hotel on 22 June 2009 was in dire need of attention with the previous owners taking all of the pictures and sad hooks... more

I stayed at this hotel whilst on business and was immediately drawn to it due to its fantastically convenient location (directly opposite the train station). When my train pulled into the station I was incredibly relieved to stumble straight through the doors of this welcoming hotel within a mercifully minute period of time. I'm afraid to say that this small... more

I stayed three nights at the hotel running a course. The over-riding memory is of the friendliness of the staff. The hotel is right next to Peterborough Railway Station and is typical of railway hotels. The building is getting a bit old (including the 1970's block at the rear) and some things just don't work terribly well (such as plumbing).... more

Stayed at this hotel mid December 2007 as i was attending the Peterborough Greyhounds for a night out. In terms of location to this, it is just a £5 taxi ride away and finding a taxi is easy as the hotel is situated next to peterborough train station. The location of the hotel also means it is less than a... more

Arrived early (around half 10 in am) so had to store luggage. Very hard to get a phone (I had not yet purchased my very reasonably priced Mobile) was told by staff to go to a payphone down the street. Could not get it to work so staff finally gave me a phone in a conference room to use, (no... more

I can't argue that when you step off the train, the hotel is a welcome sight as it's literally across the road. Shame really that there is no lift so I had to struggle with my bags. The signs for the room numbers give very little clue as to where you need to go so you have to wander around... more

Having recently gained an ongoing need to visit Peterborough regularly I was really pleased to find a little oasis quite literally 10 yards from the station. For me it is the business for business meetings. Seemingly dozens of efficient staff and a straight forward no nonsense approach to the food offered to all of us 'laptops' filling up the place.... more
