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

Splendid but shabby

Advantages: Plentiful and reasonably priced food
Disadvantages: In need of updating, shabby in places.

...hotel has panoramic views over the seafront and an old world charm. I stayed here as a child on a family holiday and remember running up and down the corridors while my sister who I was sharing a room with phoned down to the dining room to complain of my behaviour!| However, at The Grand time has in some ways stood still. Catering for week-end 'Butlin's - style' themed house parties the hotel is a little shabby and could do with a large cash injection ...
...and waiting staff are helpful and well organised. On the plus side, you can get a very reasonably priced lunch deal in the restaurant with fish and chips, peas, bread and butter and a pot of tea or coffee for about £4.00. Breakfast is also plentiful and leisurely. ...

Review of The Grand Hotel, Scarborough

Do Enjoy Your Stay - We Did!!!

Advantages: Location, Facilities, Service
Disadvantages: Cost

Well words cannot describe how excited I was to be going to the Marriott for a romantic night away! Upon arriving my Fiance and I cannot help but notice how spotless the area is - inside and out. So good start! IReception staff dealt with all customers quickly, no-one was kept waiting around for ages. We actually got our room number, key and had our credit card details taken (for room service etc) within a very short space of time indeed! I would ...
...were very helpful offering to make reservations in the bar and grill for an evening meal and offering to have a paper delivered next morning. We opted for a table at 7pm to have a meal as they had a special Valentine's menu on. We had checked in just after 3pm so that gave us just under 4 hours of erm fun and frolicks shall we say? :) All lifts were working so there were no delays waiting around - saying that we were only on the second floor so ...

Review of Newcastle Marriott Hotel MetroCentre, Gateshead

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

Weekend Away - Amazing location..

Advantages: Not far from Twycross Zoo - Excellent Zoo, stunning surroundings
Disadvantages: Unfriendly, rooms needed some care (a good clean or revamp)

£85 for the room - so guess we were expecting a little something special.. Staff - grumpy or sould I say very amateur. We stayed for 1 night with our 16 month old. Room up 3 flights of stairs, lift was not working - they never even told us there was a lift! Ok so there were 3 weddings going on - which I have to say made no difference to us, very quiet and no hassle. Walking along the coridoors the sofas really needed a good clean - entering our room ...
...a good scrub, bath was a tad on the grubby side - Shower was excellent, very powerful. Bed - you could definitely feel those springs and pillows were like pancakes. Carpet needed the cleaners in. Didnt even attempt the tea - coffee facilities. However it is in the most amazing surroundings. Oh we booked a non smoking room to be greetted with an ashtray. Breakfast ok - Waitress was on the night before and she tried to haggle on the supposed Free bottle ...
