We got a good deal for the 3 night stay - £159 for a room, bed and breakfast with dinner on the first night for the first two nights, and £69.50 b&b for the third night. Just about the same price as the Marriott but with dinner thrown in.

We checked in, had a coffee from the stock in the room, and went down to the leisure suite for a swim, sauna and jacuzzi...really relaxing!

...get good discount on the Crowne Plaza. When we arrived, late at night and tired, the staff were friendly and helpful. We made our way to our room and it was above standard, providing everything we needed and was clean. Due to the fact we arrived late we orded a pizza for delivery to the hotel - the staff were fine with this.
