    The hotel was busy and at breakfast there was only one member of staff serving all of the guests. This was insufficient for the number of guests. As a result we waited for around 30 minutes for breakfast. I ordered the full English which, despite the very high quality, was served lukewarm and borderline edible. I was told I would need to wait an additional 15 minutes to have it replaced so I declined.

    Nice hotel in the lovely village of Croft. We had a premium double room which was large and had an excellent modern bathroom. Very comfortable bed. Reception staff were friendly and welcoming.

    We had to ask for batteries for the tv remote in the living area, upon requesting these, I was told the tv didn't work in the bedroom area, but would hopefully get fixed the following day. This never happened. It was lovely being upgraded, and I was looking forward to laying in bed watching TV, a real treat. But why upgrade to a room where the tv didn't work, a great disappointment!

    We were upgraded to the Garden Suite which was lovely.

    One of the two rooms booked was particularly cold. We attended a wedding at the hotel - it didn’t appear to be very well organised. There was no privacy in the bathroom which faced the main road. Lunchtime buffet was poor.

    Breakfast was good although the smoked salmon wasn’t available and the black pudding was missing from the full English. Evening buffet was excellent! The interior decor was very tastefully done. Comfy beds - slept well!

    Poor service and food at breakfast (Sunday) - had run out of some ingredients so no full English, fried egg yolk solid, bacon tough + one meal never came so a guest in our party missed out, road noise, milk bottle left in fridge from previous guest, cracked window pane, small amount black mold in shower, missing grout around bathroom floor tile, constant hum from fridge all night, thin walls

    Comfy bed, hot shower, nice toiletries, effective blackout curtains,

    I thought the tea and coffee making facilities were really basic. I would always expect Yorkshire tea as a standard. I've stayed in lots of hotels recently that now have a Nespresso machine in the rooms so it was disappointing that it was non branded instant coffee.

    Nice large room, comfortable bed, bathroom was modern and clean

    Well positioned for Croft circuit. Comfortable room although night storage heaters rather than central heating. Not the warmest of rooms. Decent food but better options available locally.

    We booked this at the last minute (30 mins ahead of arriving) and it was delightful and perfect for our needs - comfortable, warm room (there was an additional, plug in heater in our room, which was perfect) and helpful, friendly staff. We had dinner in the restaurant (which was closing at 8pm - a bit earlier than it says on the website) which was very nice. We really enjoyed our safe and it was brilliant for a late find and very good value :-)

    Attention to detail needed with cleaning as there were dusty corners behind doors and tops of skirting boards. This did not detract from my stay.....but thought hotel would want to know.

    Very welcoming & friendly, felt very comfortable staying as a single woman. I was able to work in hotel lounge until I needed to leave for my appointment. Thank you.

    Even though we were upgraded to a beautiful room you could hear conversations on the other side of the wall, but can’t complain really as the room was beautiful

    The staff were extremely friendly and helpful, the hotel has had a facelift and looks impressive. Breakfast was very nice albeit not piping hot but still very acceptable

    The sofa could have done with a deep clean or new covers

    The room was bigger than most at this price range with an equally big bathroom. There was also a seating area more common with an executive room than a basic one

    Just an observation with the cooked breakfast;- Mushroom on plate was cold whilst all other items were nice and hot. Is this deliberate?

    Room (upgrade) was very comfortable and spacious, ideal for our 3 night stay. Bar/lounge area was very cosy and inviting. Breakfast options were very good, plentiful and tasty. Cooked breakfast was excellent with very good quality ingredients. Staff throughout our stay were welcoming, friendly and very helpful.
