My Little Hideaway

Advantages: Beautiful surroundings, high quality accommodation and food
Disadvantages: The foyer can get a little too friendly!

...was a recent visit to Llyndir Hall which prompted me to write this review as it brought back some very happy memories of six years ago when we held our evening wedding reception there. We had got married in the US which was wonderful for us, but which unfortunately meant that a lot of family members were unable to share the occasion with us. It was for this reason that we decided to hold a reception/party for everyone who was unable to travel to ...
...everyone. I had been to Llyndir Hall Hotel only once on a previous occasion for a meal and therefore had very limited knowledge of the place. However, considering the fact that it is located smack bang between Chester and Wrexham, together with its beautiful surroundings, it seemed an ideal place to hold the reception. >>>A Little Background Information<<< = Set in the idyllic village of Rossett, which lies just over ...

Review of Llyndir Hall, Chester

Fawlty towers is a crown plaza compared

Advantages: staff discount
Disadvantages: everything

...salad but instead I got Holiday inn club sandwich so I sent it back except the potato wedges because I was really hungry at this point. When they came back with the salad it had BBQ sauce on my salad which I didn't want because I wanted the sauce in a separate bowl to go with my potato wedges so before I sent it back this time I asked for the duty manager, when he arrived I explained where I was from and which part of the hotel I worked in, I told ...
...it being a busy bank holiday you need your staff in. All I can say is stay at a better hotel than this because even a B&B is a lot better than this hotel but hopefully soon they will be improving it or so I've been told. If anyone has a great experience from this hotel can you please let me know. I'm never going to go again. ...

Review of Holiday Inn Chester South, Chester

THE UNFRIENDLY CLUB'' -

Advantages: None
Disadvantages: So many

...will refuse to do especially when they have taken £25 of my good earned cash. They really do not care about their members, they seem to forget that it is us members that keep them in a job. Avoid the camping and caravan club like the plague. ...

Holiday Inn Shepperton - prebooked? Beware - if you cancel

Advantages: NONE
Disadvantages: ALL

...to cancel the stay with Holiday Inn re the current extreme bad weather problems for the journey by car from the North West for my 93 year old mother whose health would not be up to making such a potentially dangerous / uncertain journey. Holiday Inn Shepperton have refused to give us a refund for cancellation of the booking which we find unbelievable given the current weather conditions. Its the Holiday Inn attitude that pees me off, basically ...
...had a problem with a Holiday Inn booking in the '80s in the USA - wishing to transfer from a Holiday Inn in Hollywood where we had been staying to one at Anaheim - they made the transfer ok - but still charged us for the days stay not taken at Hollywood ! BEWARE FOLKS IF YOU MAKE A PREPAID BOOKING WITH HOLIDAY INNS AND THEN NEED TO CANCEL - THEY WILL STILL CHARGE YOU REGARDLESS !! BETTER NOT TO BOOK AT ALL AND JUST TURN UP IF YOU NEED TO USE HOLIDAY ...

A freezing cold with broken heating not so Welcome Cottage

Advantages: nice spacious family holiday home
Disadvantages: no help contactable when heating broken in mid-winter

...in Norfolk - arranged though Welcome Cottages, although you can rent this place through other sites like Country Cottages too. The house is owned by Mike Franklin, who would appear to own many holiday lets - he certainly owns number 5 Bure Cottages too. We arrived at 4pm in deep snow (with more falling) to a house so cold you could see your breath in the living room. The heating was broken and we couldn't find any instructions on who to contact ...
...times in 2 hours) or Welcome cottages (tried them at just after 5pm and they were shut - and no emergency number on ansaphone) Eventually (after 2 hours there with miserable cold 2 + 4 year old) a heating engineer we'd left a message with called us back and talked us through relighting the pilot light. We had to partly dismantle the kitchen cabinet to do this, with our own tools, and there's no way we'd have been able to work this out without the ...
