The hotel was ideal for the show at the NEC, less than 10 minutes away. The breakfast was very good, attentive staff and unlimited tea and coffee, cooked breakfast and cold options. Walking distance to some good places to eat, we went to the Bulls Head and Vivaa. Definitely worth booking before you go!

Easy, short drive to NEC No lift, bath very high sided hard to get in or out. Staff were polite if seen. No evidence in room of availability of room service. Only on 2 electrical plugs TV signal cut in and out. Food available but expensive If not travelling with dog, would have been cheaper £25 per night

Unreliable hotel
Business trip. Arrived at hotel at 10.15 to be told that they had sold our room and we had nowhere to stay. Eventually found another hotel 30 minutes away and finally got to bed at 1am.

No water in the barh or shower
The hotel was overbooked. We arrived, as planned, at 10.30 pm. Took 15 minutes to be served. This was because they were trying to find accommodation for other guests that had been overbooked. They found us s room eventually, which had been refurbished, it smelled of paint, but at least we had a bed. The room was smart and well decorated, but there was no hot water to the hand basin, and no water at all to the bath and shower. The phone in the room didn't work. We went down for breakfast, and complained to front desk. We asked for access ti a room where we could shower. Reception told us they would sort it out while we had breakfast. It took a further 10 minutes after breakfast. The hotel sorted olit out in the end, but, not a good e experience.

Well maintained and presented hotel
Only a overnight stay with an early start. Comfortable, well furnished room, and good nights sleep. Would have liked to have sampled the good food under the name of chef Marco Pierre White as good chef prepared food is hard to find these days in England. Would certainly stat again and allow time for an evening meal in the restaurant.

Our Executive Twin room was immaculate and the beds and bedding were so comfortable. The room service was an added bonus and the food was amazing. We were warm enough, more than comfortable and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. This will be our “go to” hotel whenever we visit the NEC!

Really lovey hotel! Car park is fairly small for the size of the building, room was a good size and being about to place a ‘bid’ for upgrade was a great idea! Great location for NEC/Resorts Arena.

Great hotel.
I have stayed here so many times. Everything is great. One exception is the poor Wi-Fi in the rooms. For a business hotel this needs to improve. The communal areas are fine. Other than that I love this hotel. Great staff, food and comfort.

Weekend away
Had a lovely weekend away. Hotel was excellent. The room was spacious, clean and had everything we needed. Staff were attentive and nothing was too much trouble. Food was exceptional in the restaurant and there was lots of choice at the buffet breakfast. Couldn’t fault anything.
