Lovely overnight stay

We had a lovely overnight stay. We loved how this hotel is built around an old water mill and how you are right by the overflow canal off the main canal. The staff were all extremely friendly.

It was a pleasant stay, the only thing i would say is that the rooms need new carpets and a bathroom makeover, too dated.

A Room with a View

Part of the Sure Collection of Best Western. Really nice setting with 2 pubs directly across the road for dining options. My room was on the ground level and looked directly on to the car park so the car was only a few feet from the door which was really convenient. Really nice and friendly staff and very helpful. The room was really well decorated, up to date and clean. A nice big, comfy bed and double headed shower. There was a lovely view of the river which ran outside of the hotel. Breakfast was really well cooked and got the day off to the best start. Great value for money stay with only a couple of minor things stopping a 5 out of 5 review but would definitely look to stay here again.

Bar and restaurant shut

Was not advised the the bar and restaurant were undergoing maintenance and were shut. Had to go look for dinner at alternative venue.
Paul, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Has so much potential being on the river & with the waterwheel but sadly the hotel has seen better days. Our room was plenty big enough but very old furnishings & the counterpains on the bed were stained. Unfortunately the rooms at the front are subject to road noise.

Room ok, shower awful...cold!! So that's not good enough!! So dated could do with an improvement, carpet not that clean bits everywhere! Sound coming from window so can hear Road, can hear people being noisy above the room!
Francine, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

Room was a good size, cold and had seen better days. Shower was cold/no food/bar yes theres a pub over thr road but its not exactly cheap. For over a £100.00 i exspected warm water and it to generally look like it was cared for.
