Last Drop Village Hotel

Advantages: Full usage of Spa, gym,pool
Disadvantages: Choice of food served in main restaurant

We have recently returned from our 3-day break at this hotel. After reading other reviews of this hotel we were very apprehensive about our stay. On our arrival we were greeted by very friendly staff and made to feel very welcome. We were given very clear details of the facilities available to us and also breakfast and dinner times. Our executive room was lovely , clean and warm and well worth the extra supplement. Great choice at breakfast and carvery ...
...Inn. In my opinion we have had a very pleasurable stay,staff were very attentive and nothing was too much trouble.Glad to see that the small quaint shops were still to the rear of the hotel which are not mentioned on their website. In my opinion there website does not do the hotel justice and needs some updating. If you want to stay in a traditional hotel then this is the one surroundings are lovely. Overall we have had a very pleasurable stay. ...

Review of Macdonald Last Drop Village Hotel & Spa, Bolton

Not the best but well worth a mention

Advantages: lovely conservatory breakfast room
Disadvantages: not the prettiest from the front

The De Vere Hotels are a rather lovely "chain" of hotels which can be found all over the UK. They are not your cheapest brand of hotel prices range from approx £110 right up to £400 or so per night. Deals can be found all over the place though, I found my deal at lastminute which was £100 for b&b. The Hotel we stayed at was The De Vere in Southampton which was okay to look at but nothing special (basically a big brick building!) It has a massive ...
...was quite impressive looking with valet parking on offer and doorman at the entrance welcoming you in. I enjoyed my stay at the Southampton De Vere and would really recommend it especially if you can get a good deal! Also on dooyoo under the same name ...

Review of De Vere Grand Harbour Hotel, Southampton

Where's The Wifi, Where's The playstation

Advantages: Reasonably priced, centrally located accommodation
Disadvantages: Not everything that was offered online was available

...for, part of the prestigious De Vere group the Royal Bath is situated on Bournemouth’s sea front, just a few yards from the beach, pier, park and Oceanarium. This grand looking hotel offers a fair bit of promise externally as it dominates a large portion of the sea front. Our arrival was different to say the least, as we stepped in the door we were greeted by a selection of guests who were incredibly overdressed leading me to believe initially I ...
...the room comes from the De Vere’s website which promised both Wifi access and an in room playstation. Unable to receive Internet access via my dongle (mobile broadband) I found myself without Internet access for my stay, there was not even a wired Internet option like a lot of hotels have. I could happily live without a playstation, but if I had company that had been expecting it like one of my kids, it could undoubtedly lead to disappointment. Breakfast ...

Review of De Vere Royal Bath Hotel, Bournemouth

Rude, disinterested staff

Advantages: fabulous rooms and function suites
Disadvantages: terrible food, god awful staff

I agree whole heartedly with the other reviewers comments. I have stayed there twice now,for my partners works christmas party last year and the year before. The rooms are stunning with amazing views but unfortunately the staff are rude at worst and disinterested and ineffectual at best. The food at the parties was ok for mass catering and the entertainment that accompanied the meal was superb!! unlike the previous reviewer my experience of the ...
...so I ordered from the breakfast menu, I ordered the mackerel with poached egg and was told it will take 15 mins to cook, after 25 mins they came back and told me sorry there isn't any mackerel but you can have kippers so I chose the kippers with poached egg, 20 mins later it arrived, to my horror the kipper was stone cold and raw, I complained to the waitress and she went away in a very surly manner leaving the cold uncooked food in front of me and ...

Review of Macdonald St. Paul's Hotel, Sheffield

One of the best

Advantages: good maintainance
Disadvantages: exterior look

Macdonald Elmers Court Hotel and Resort is one of the best hotels and resorts that I have ever come accross. One of the most important thing I like about it is the hospitality of the room keepers and hotel managers. They have an excellent cuisine and the structure of the hotel is also fair and good. The maintainance of the rooms is also good . I would refer it to everyone. The resort is an added advantage in connection with the hotel. Anyone can ...
