8/10 Good

Not too far from the city centre. Friendly staff, decent room, clean, absolutely fine for a budget hotel.
Anthony, 1-night trip

Pretty basic

Philip, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Staff were really friendly and helpful.
Samantha, 1-night trip

4/10 Poor

Hotel sited in a retail park. Premium room at back very dark & cold, grey walls, no colour, curtains permanently closed, very depressing. Bathroom excessively hot, no thermostat on heated towel rail. Food options poor, dining room in another building. Poor value for money. Wouldn’t stay at a Bannatyne’s again. Disappointing for my partner’s birthday weekend.
Alane Vicki, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

A very comfortable, clean, and quiet room.Staff brilliant. Plenty of car parking. Our only suggestion would be to review the breakfast arrangements - for example - a buffet breakfast in the hotel rather than the current system at the adjacent spa.
Virginia, 4-night trip

8/10 Good

staff were very friendly and welcoming
Andrew, 2-night trip

6/10 Okay

The property was easily accessible and conveniently located for the purpose of the trip. The staff were very helpful and friendly. The only issue I encountered was the bin men came to collect the industrial bins at 04.00 am. This was very noisy and woke me up. I spoke to management regarding the matter who did email the procurement team however I was told this could not be changed and they had no control over what time the bin men came. I find this poor control of contractors where the main purpose of the hotel is to provide a peaceful nights sleep.
Mark, 3-night trip

Two night stay rooms were very nice clean.food in the health spa wasn’t great so ate out rather than on site
Dale, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Great for an odd night or two

Staff were very polite and welcoming. Only downside, if you wanted breakfast you had to walk across the carpark to the next building for dining.

10/10 Excellent

Awesome Property!
Wale, 2-night trip

6/10 Okay

Not as expected

A little run down, dated. Double bed was two singles pushed together and you could feel it. Windows only opened a couple of inches and it was a warm night, no ac or fan. Cars racing on streets outside so not quiet. Ok at a push but unlikely to return
Craig, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

The hotel was very clean a little damage to furnishing [chips on edges]. Staff where very friendly and helpful.
