Having not stayed at the hotel I feel I cannot comment of the rooms... However, I have had breakfast at the hotel on several occasions and feel it alone is very worthy of comment. The breakfast consists of a full English with a choice of sausages, and eggs. The bacon is cooked very well as is all the other items... More

We stayed here for 1 night on 27 April, as we were attending our friends Kelly & Kyle's wedding. The reception team were excellent, and dealt with our booking really well. The room (311) was what you would expect from the Holiday Inn. Breakfast was very good. No complaints about the noise, maybe because our room wasn't facing the retail... More

Good points first. Friendly staff who speak good English which makes a change. Excellent breakfast, very nice room. Bad Points Whatever the room temperature was set to didn't seem to make a difference, it was just very hot the whole time which meant you had to open the window, BIG MISTAKE, the noise at 3am was deafening and woke us...

In summary: Do not visit at the weekend if you want a good night's sleep as the walls are paper thin and you will hear everything. It is probably fine during the week. First impressions were good: friendly staff; modern reception/bar area; nice room. Before heading out for food we could hear a voice...it was actually the man in the... More
