The lack of lifts and the layout of the rooms is very inconvenient and confusing. My fault for not checking but there is no AC which made for a warm room. However the staff was very accommodating and breakfast was nice.

This place is really nice we had a signature room which was wonderful only small gripe was that restaurant closed very early when we stayed here and we had to go out. But Congleton has lots of good restaurants nearby we went to Orange Tree and it was great.

No-one was on the check-in desk when we arrived and we had to go and fetch someoe from the bar to check us in. The breakfast service was slow. Otherwise, the hotel was lovely, well decorated and clean, comfy bed and brilliant location
