The Park Hotel

First visit at the Blues Restaurant within the hotel. Lovely restaurant, well spaced out tables & good hygiene measures in place. I struggled to find something from the menu as I’m sure it was actually a dinner menu, but everyone else had the same menu. I’d suggest adding some lighter meals to the lunch menu, eg sandwiches. Anyway, I had the tempura king prawns, which were amazing! Everyone else at our table loved their food too - macaroni cheese, Cajun chicken burger, tempura chicken. Nice staff, service was a bit slow but it was quite busy.

We were booked in at The Park Hotel on 31st July and 1st August 2020. All staff we met were friendly and welcoming in both the hotel and restaurant. However, we did not sleep due to excess noise and movement from the room above us on the first night. The second night they made sure that there were no occupants in the room above which we appreciated. We were expecting some recognition of the lack of sleep on the first night when we checked out but did not hear from the general manager until I called the hotel to check my complaint has been passed to him. His comment and handling of this shocked me as his response was “The Park is not a premier inn, therefore does not guarantee a good nights sleep”??!! if you want to be sure of sleep don’t go to The Park as the general manager obviously doesn’t care! We will not be back!

The Park Hotel is located just half a mile from the town centre and overlooks/ doubles up as a confrence centre for the football club/ stadium. The rooms are large, airy and excellent value for the money they charge (£60 odd). They feature large plasma TV screens, good internet provision, biscuits and included in the price are parking and a top draw breakfast. The veggie option (particularly the haggis and pancake) was something else. If it's good enough for the footballers who were dining there before training, then its good enough for me. Sitting and watching the groundsmen do there work is also a great way to while away your morning during breakfast. There's only one minor criticism I can think of so I'll sandwich it here between all the other positives; the double beds were clearly two single beds pushed together so weren't as comfy as they could have been. Communal areas were very modern and refurbishment work was underway during my stay so no doubt the hotel's facilities will have been further improved since then. I will certainly remember this place should work bring me over to this neck of the woods again.

Attended Grease tribute on Friday it was a great night good atmosphere Food was lovely hot and fresh I would highly recommend the cheesecake The act got you dancing the night away into the early hours the staff are friendly and helpful nothing to much bother for them we also stayed overnight rooms are spacious clean and very comfortable I can’t comment on the breakfast as I didn’t make that but my friends say it was first class would highly recommend this hotel will definitely return

Great food, great service in a lovely atmosphere and great value. The up grading of the venue has worked really well and has improved the ambience. I’ll certainly be back to visit again in the near future. Highly recommended
