British Commercial Vehicle Museum

Fairhaven Hotel is so conveniently located - a five minute walk to coral island where you can get tram to wherever you need to go and you don’t have to worry about the noise from the hustle and bustle of being on the front. Check in with Laura was very informative and friendly. The hotel was lovely and clean - we were shown where the bar, breakfast area, pool table and beer garden were with timings for all as well as given keys to room and front door. We managed to get a car parking space at the hotel which was £10 per night. Room was lovely and clean. Some paint chipped off around window and shower sealant could be doing with being refreshed but that’s nit-picking. Clean towels and bedding provided with bed made up and plenty of pillows. Ample space to unpack clothing. Kettle with plenty of tea and coffee provided as well as remote for TV but we didn’t watch much. WiFi worked well throughout the hotel (we were second floor). I had to borrow a hairdryer which was no problem for the staff when asked at bar. Drinks in the bar very reasonably priced and pool table great! Breakfast was brilliant with all juices, cereal, tea and coffee and the full English breakfast which was very tasty! The breakfast staff were lovely. So polite and friendly. Nothing was an issue for them at all! I travelled as a solo parent with my 5 year old and would highly recommend this hotel.

Bed was really uncomfortable. You could feel the springs. The meal was poor quality.
