Really surprised by this place. Really hidden away. The room was lovely and clean and nicely decorated, very modern. Only downfall was the chargeable parking, shame but not the end of the world as it was £5 for 24 hours…just didn’t expect it. Would definitely stay here again

We had a nice warm welcome on arrival . Breakfast was pretty good served by a well mannered woman and it was freshly cooked . The room was clean bed was comfortable shower was powerful and hot. The only downside and this is not the ibis it’s the pub that’s in front Prince William it was pretty poor.

Clean, friendly lovely place to stay

Stayed the night while visiting friends for a birthday party. Lovely service from friendly people (they even helped me wrap up a birthday present for me! Room was convienient and clean. Sadly no food service available at the weekends, however a lovely pub \ resturant next door. My only pain point was having to pay for parking which I beleive was £8, seemed a little cheaky to me.

Friendly staff. Nice modern room although smelt of damp. Hallway to rooms was very dark so not very pleasant. It didn’t have the hotel feel I normally get when I visit other hotel chains, it didn’t have an instant welcoming feel.
