The Angel of the South

Advantages: Reasonably priced, centrally located, spacious rooms, historical interest
Disadvantages: None

...told this news was "Where the bloody hell is Bury St. Edmunds?" Now, being a lad from Manchester I thought the only Bury was situated in Lancashire and was famous for its black puddings. However, as I gladly found out, there is a lovely market town in the heart of Suffolk (that's near Ipswich, Newmarket and Cambridge if you didn't know) which shares part of its name with its Lancashire counterpart and that is where I was to visit. ****** So having ...
...to stay at The Angel ****** The two main criteria which I tend to adopt when visiting a hotel for the first time is that it has to be a reasonable standard (at least 3 star) and that its location is central and easily accessible to the places I wish to visit. As I said above, I had to visit on business so I wasn't too bothered about the cost as this wasn't coming directly out of my sky rocket. However, having said that, we are still constrained ...

Review of The Angel Hotel, Bury St. Edmunds

* Classy *

Advantages: Comfy Bed , Food
Disadvantages: No Tea/Coffe in room , Limited choice for vegetarians + at breakfast ,

...so recommended it to us. The holiday began once we had arrived in a hotel called 'The Stoke By Nayland Club' in Suffolk, we stayed the night there and then the next day biked to our next destination , which was the hotel I am going to review , we stayed the night there , and then the next day cycled to another hotel , stayed the night there , and then the next day cycled back to the first hotel we stayed at , and that is where the cycling came to ...
...and went down to meet the gentleman from ' Cycle Suffolk Breaks' who handed us our bikes. We had never been on such a holiday before and so weren't too sure what to expect. We were given some directions as a guide only (you could take the longer route of 30 miles , or the shorter route of 12 miles). Because the longer route offered some great views and historic attractions we started out on that one. To me , thirty miles doesn't seem that bad. I ...

Review of The Bildestown Crown, Suffolk

Basic ok for overnight stop

Advantages: Central location
Disadvantages: Basic ok for overnight and short stays.

Stayed at this hotel on several occassions, usually booked in the Travelodge Sale, and always been satisfied. Rooms are basic and good value when booked at discount, but we feel the Premier nearby offers better value if paying the full rate. Rooms have basic tea making facilities, bathrooms with showers over and basic tv packages. Beds have always been comfortable and extra bedding provided on request. No on site food service other than the shrink ...
...value. Hotel is next to the main shopping centre in Hemel Hempstead where there are several cafes, all a bit pricey. Several other restaurants nearby. If opens are open at night, noise can be a problems as this is on the race route around the town centre. Car park is small for the number of rooms and finding a space if arriving late at night can be a problem. Car parks are available nearby at a cost. ...

Review of Travelodge, Hemel Hempstead

Basic but a good overnight stop

Advantages: Good location, basic accomodation good value at discount rate
Disadvantages: Basic, only ok for short stop over or base.

...are basic as with all travelodge Hotels and have either a bath or shower room. Each room has basic TV and tea making facilities. Beds have been comfortable on each visit and each bedding/pillows provided when requested. The hotel is just off the main A303 but we have never had any issues with noise but have not opened the windows either. The hotel is in a small service area next to a Little Chef where basic meals are available. We have not used this ...

Review of Travelodge Yeovil Podimore, Yeovil

Premier Inn Gatwick - Exceptional value for money, comfy & clean!

Advantages: Excellent value for money, very comfortable, clean and tasty food.
Disadvantages: A bus ride away from the North terminal

I have flown from Gatwick airport early in the morning on several occasions and have always found it much easier to stay the night before and leisurely wander over to the North Terminal in the morning rather than try and make my way down in the car or on the train. I have stayed at both the Sofitel at Gatwick and the Premier Inn therefore, will review both however please be aware this is for the Premier Inn at Gatwick. I have stayed at the Premier ...
...shower. The Premier Inn Gatwick has a restaurant downstairs as well as a bar where you can order food from their bar menu. The restaurant menu is simple but the food is good, and includes dishes such as Spaghetti Bolognese and steak (as of September 2009). The bar menu is a little more basic with dishes such as pizza and burgers taking pride of place. The beauty of the bar menu however, is that you can order your food and then take it back to your ...
