Spent one night in this hotel on our way from the Lake District to Cannock Chase. Good location for main road links, the Britannia Stadium and Alton Towers not to far away. The hotel is modern clean and comfortable, the room we had was very good and no complaints. The staff were very friendly and the breakfast was good. The... More

Room good with TV, sofa etc and bathroom looked clean but had a strange odour of stale urine which lingered throughout the stay. Perhaps a plumber is needed? The pedal bin in the bathroom also did not work as depressing the pedal failed to raise the lid. Maybe this bathroom problem is specific to this room (325) if it hadn't... More

The staff are excellent, its comfortable, clean and welcoming! The bar area is nice with big TV's going and the rooms excellentfor what you pay.... More

When I arrived I realised that there was a football match on that evening - OH NO!!! I have to say I was so impressed with the staff and the hotel - the football caused no problem at all - there were staff on the car park ensuring that only hotel customers could get in, there were staff on the...

I cannot fault the check in or service.The breakfast... More

I gave this hotel a poor rating as a reflection of our lack of sleep. The staff and cleaniness of the room were fine. I am surprised that none of the recent reviewers refer to the disruption (despite triple glazing) of traffic noise. Maybe they are heavier sleepers or their rooms were at the front of the hotel or they... More

We stayed here last August and because we had such a great stay we decided to come back again. The staff are always friendly and welcoming, rooms are just what you need and a lovely breakfast too.
