“Family Stoppover”

Reviewed 20 May 2013 NEW

Stayed for one night to visit family in the nearby area, so the location was good for us. This hotel is a super conversion of the old "Sports Village Hotel" which used to be a bit cheap and cheerful. It now displays the usual Hilton style, very well laid out with nice comfortable rooms and a clean stylish reception and... More
