Martin, County Durham

Business traveller
Liked: Staff & service
The room I stayed in was very dated and tired. The bathroom, in particular, was in desperate need of an update. There was loose, mouldy silicone around the bath and shower area. Also, the pipes were rattling and banging, which woke me up several times throughout my two-night stay. I didn't mention these issues to the hotel staff because they didn't even ask me if everything was fine while checking out. Despite paying more than other hotels and expecting the standard that Copthorne portrays, I won't be returning to this hotel.

I’ve stayed in the Copthorne on several occasions and the staff are always courteous and friendly. I have no problem recommending this to anybody who want to be near Birmingham, but far enough to enjoy the countryside. This is an excellent hotel and affordable with a swimming pool and sauna

As usual, the staff are excellent. They are welcoming and efficient and very friendly. I had made 3 separate reservations as i wasn’t sure how long i needed to stay. The changing that was necessary was made very easy and kindly done. This hotel has the best staff I have ever encountered. The health club is lovely too.

Amazing two night stay at this hotel, it was for my friends birthday and they looked after us both. Each person we spoke to and served or helped us were amazing and so friendly! Shelley on night one in the restaurant was so friendly and made us feel at ease. I asked a couple questions and nothing was too much effort! We can not wait to book our next stay with you for another spa and shopping day.

First night couldn’t sleep because they had clubbing going on downstairs. They didn’t help with luggage. Didn’t help with anything. I had to park so far away which is a parking lot used for people who wanna smoke cheese. Rooms are from the 1980s Toilet flushes and doesn’t stop flushing. Lighting is so dim. Room so gloomy and depressing. Everything is just so old and creaky.
