Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The hotel was clean and staff were friendly and helpful. Despite being next to the A34 my room was quiet. The location was actually good and only a 5 minute walk via the service station car park to the bus stop at the park and ride.

Convenient location with plenty of parking (albeit £8 per night), clean & tidy, very good buffet breakfast as well as lunch and dinner dining options. Unfortunatley our room was one floor above the gym and we could hear every grunt and thump and footstep on the treadmill, so make sure to check! Other than that would have no hesitation in returning.

The rooms were warm and comfortable but unfortunately the bar and restaurant area was cold as there was a problem with the heating system. It also needs to be clearer that there is a parking charge of £6.00.
