Breakfast in the health club was decent. No frills but basics done well. ##### Lesley Stayed 1 night in Mar 2025 ### 4/10 Poor #### Alane Vicki 3 Aug 2025 Liked: Staff & service 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 Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### David 4 Dec 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Lovely staff / very welcoming. ##### David Stayed 1 night in Nov 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Mark 4 Aug 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities 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 Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Peter 11 Apr 2025 #### Basic Very standard accommodation. Food in other building. ##### Peter Stayed 4 nights in Apr 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Andrew 24 Dec 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Friendly staff ##### Andrew Stayed 1 night in Dec 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Dale 22 Nov 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Two night stay rooms were very nice clean.food in the health spa wasn’t great so ate out rather than on site ##### Dale Stayed 2 nights in Nov 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Tom 8 Jun 2025 Good hotel,just very disappointed in terms of having to pay an additional £15 to use the gym facilities as when I booked it I always use the gym included filter for my bookings,not sure who’s at fault here the hotel or hotels.com,the hotel told me it was because I didn’t book directly with them ☹️☹️☹️ ##### Tom Stayed 1 night in Jun 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kay 3 Dec 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### 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. ##### Kay Stayed 1 night in Nov 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Ian James 12 Jun 2025 Liked: Staff & service Hotel presentation did not live up to expectations comparing website vs reality, no mention of charges for the gym, until you receive the confirmation email ##### Ian James Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### David 27 Jul 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Nice room clean,comfy bed ##### David Stayed 1 night in Jul 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Wale 7 Jun 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Awesome Property! ##### Wale Stayed 2 nights in May 2024 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [The Coppid Beech Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bracknell-Hotels-The-Coppid-Beech-Hotel.h3809.Hotel-Information) > > [Carden Park](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Chester-Hotels-Carden-Park.h190780.Hotel-Information) > > [Hampton by Hilton London Gatwick Airport](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Gatwick-Hotels-Hampton-By-Hilton-London-Gatwick-Airport.h7234788.Hotel-Information) > > [Hampton by Hilton London Stansted Airport](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Stansted-Hotels-Hampton-By-Hilton-London-Stansted-Airport.h18464320.Hotel-Information) > > [Stratford Manor Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Stratford-Upon-Avon-Hotels-Stratford-Manor.h27936.Hotel-Information) > > [Ashford International Hotel & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Ashford-Hotels-Ashford-International-Hotel.h527123.Hotel-Information) > > [Retallack Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/St-Columb-Major-Hotels-Retallack-Resort.h4537229.Hotel-Information) > > [Bloc Hotel London Gatwick Airport](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Gatwick-Hotels-Bloc-Hotel-London-Gatwick-Airport.h6594190.Hotel-Information) > > [Sand Bay Holiday Village](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Weston-Super-Mare-Hotels-Sand-Bay-Holiday-Village.h11443695.Hotel-Information) > > [St Michael's Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Falmouth-Hotels-St-Michaels-Resort.h2951426.Hotel-Information) > > [Crowne Plaza Stratford Upon Avon by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Stratford-Upon-Avon-Hotels-Crowne-Plaza-Stratford-Upon-Avon.h11307.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton London Gatwick Airport](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Gatwick-Hotels-Hilton-London-Gatwick-Airport.h20753.Hotel-Information) > > [Norbreck Castle Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Blackpool-Hotels-Norbreck-Castle-Hotel.h6377.Hotel-Information) > > [Eastwell Manor, Champneys Hotel & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Ashford-Hotels-Eastwell-Manor.h905662.Hotel-Information) > > [Camelot Castle Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Tintagel-Hotels-Camelot-Castle-Hotel.h8083111.Hotel-Information) > > [Hollins Hall Hotel, Golf & Country Club](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Shipley-Hotels-Hollins-Hall-Hotel.h63744.Hotel-Information) > > [Chesford Grange Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kenilworth-Hotels-Chesford-Grange.h920291.Hotel-Information) > > [Grand Burstin Hotel Folkestone](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Folkestone-Hotels-Grand-Burstin-Hotel-Folkestone.h1201483.Hotel-Information) > > [The Mill Hotel & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Chester-Hotels-The-Mill-Hotel-Spa.h1695656.Hotel-Information) > > [Village Hotel Manchester Ashton](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Ashton-Under-Lyne-Hotels-Village-Hotel-Manchester-Ashton.h1848975.Hotel-Information) > > [The Winchester Hotel & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Winchester-Hotels-The-Winchester-Hotel-Spa.h26080.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton at St George's Park, Burton Upon Trent](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Burton-On-Trent-Hotels-Hilton-At-St-Georges-Park.h5094740.Hotel-Information) > > [Radisson Blu Hotel Manchester, Airport](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Manchester-Hotels-Radisson-Blu-Hotel-Manchester.h120016.Hotel-Information) > > [The Spa Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Royal-Tunbridge-Wells-Hotels-The-Spa-Hotel.h8849.Hotel-Information) > > [Hythe Imperial Hotel Spa & Golf](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hythe-Hotels-Hythe-Imperial-Hotel-Spa-Golf.h9108.Hotel-Information) > > [The Rutland Arms Hotel, Bakewell, Derbyshire](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bakewell-Hotels-The-Rutland-Arms-Hotel.h792056.Hotel-Information) > > [Harbour Beach Club & Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Salcombe-Hotels-Harbour-Beach-Club-Hotel-Spa.h2261933.Hotel-Information) > > [Fistral Beach Hotel and Spa - Adults Only](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Newquay-Hotels-Fistral-Beach-Hotel-And-Spa-Adults-Only.h1895493.Hotel-Information) > > [Worcester Whitehouse](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Worcester-Hotels-Worcester-Whitehouse.h18498.Hotel-Information) > > [Cotswolds Hotel & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Chipping-Norton-Hotels-Cotswolds-Hotel-Spa.h13106835.Hotel-Information)
