Overnight stay with hubby and friends.
Very friendly and efficient staff, the rooms were exceptionally clean and a very good size. Even with all the covid restrictions in place everything was running smoothly and felt very made for a very comfortable enjoyable overnight stay with friends.
Childrens beds on the floor
Stayed here as a family of 4 with a 10 and 7 year old. After reading on here that children had been given mattresses on the floor, I contacted the hotel to ensure that this was not the case. I was reassured that the beds were 'proper' and there was a base and mattress. I believed this to mean a camp bed or a sofa bed as we get in all of the other hotel chains that we have stayed in. I thanked the staff member and advised the importance of this due to our son having mobility issues and needing to be comfortable. We arrived to our room to find a regular double room with two single matresses on the floor. One was in front of the window, blocking the desk and the head of the bed was not flat against anything. The other was in front of the wardrobe on the other side of the bed, meaning that to close the blinds or access the wardrobe we had to drag to matress out of the way. Both children expressed their dismay at these beds. After a long journey and excitement a bed on the floor was very disappointing. Yes the bed dud have a base - if you call a very thin couple of centimetres peice of wood a base. However they were awfully low down (on the floor in fact) and very uncomfortable. My husband and I actually gave the children the bed as we just couldn't relax knowing the children were uncomfortable. This low level was also difficult for my son with his disability. Room was clean enough, was very worn which although was not the best we could deal with. Ironing board placed in wardrobe and fell out when opened door. Needs a hook or something. Due to the cramped conditions and having to complete the assault course of moving beds, squeezing past etc this could have caused an accident when trying to access wardrobe. Shower was ok, plenty of hot water- but grips on bottom of bath worn and slippy so needed to be very careful to avoid accident. Breakfast still not best variety due to covid but staff at breakfast were friendly and helpful. Check in was self check in. We had no problem with this but acknowledgement from staff to say hello and some basic info re breakfast times etc would have been useful. We did manage to get a pool slot. Pool small but nice enough. Family changing rooms utterly disgusting, hot and worn out. Moved to ladies changing room and this was much better. Would we stay again- absolutely not. The beds were the worst we have had accross a number of hotel chains. It really felt like children were second class citizens and not planned for at all. My response from management has been dismal. No real heartfelt apology or a focus onthe issues, very standard response and feeling that they do not really care. If you have a family I suggest that you book elsewhere. Holiday Inn, Hilton, Radisson, Novotel, premier Inn and Crowne Plaza have all done an excellent job for catering for our family.
Average business hotel - good value
This is a standard business hotel that is clean and well located. Some aspects of the rooms are now tired - the veneers on the desks and bedside tables is bubbling and lifting for example. Beds are comfortable but if you don’t request a room looking out of the car park, you will end up with a view of a roof and concrete wall which is hideous. Reception staff were cheerful and friendly, as were most of the bar staff and restaurant staff. I concur with the experience of the review written before mine - in fact I think we were there on the same evening as I had the same experience with the bar man and his attitude as well as ‘waiting to be seated’ when nobody came over to seat me. This was my experience every night actually, so I took to seating myself in the end . I was also confused at being able to identify the restaurant manager who was wearing a tracksuit top. The food is at best average - salads were dry and tasteless, and the menu wasn’t very extensive. Breakfast selection was adequate though I would question the need for paper cups - especially when there was normal crockery and cutlery for eating. It was a buffet breakfast that was served by a member of kitchen staff due to covid . Unfortunately there was never anybody there and on every day I was there (2 weeks for work ) there wasn’t a day where the restaurant staff didn’t have to go searching in the kitchen for somebody to serve breakfast.
Date night

Confusing and abrupt
Policies need to be clearer for guests. Not the first time I've stayed in a Village Hotel, but with everything that's been going on in the world, it's been a while so I am not familiar with current policies etc. Helpful lady on the auto reception desk advised I didn't need to book a table for the Pub and Grill, just go in. Just inside was a sign asking guests to wait to be seated. I dutifully waited a few minutes with no sign of anyone coming to assist me. The bar seating area was perhaps a quarter full with lots of people seeming to go to and from the bar. I approached the bar to see what I needed to do to order. Brusque barman shouted "can I help you?" I replied that I wanted to order and he shouted again "you can't be coming up to the bar, you need to use the app!" I hadn't heard about or been advised about an app, couldn't see any signage about an app and was a little bemused. Another man came over to me, dressed in a tracksuit top, and asked me politely," what do you want? ". I didn't know whether he was staff or another customer. I said "I want to order food and drink". He said, "ok, take a seat, download the app and I'll come back and help you" Still wasn't sure whether he worked there or not. As I sat downloading the app, the grumpy barman shouted rudely at the next two sets of customers who approached the bar. 1 chap with his daughter sat as instructed and the barman went over to him and barked that he needed to download the app and use that. The customer left. When the polite gentleman who had spoken to me went to the bar to ask what had transpired. The barman shouted very loudly "I told him to use the app and he just buggered off!" It was then that I noticed the barely distinguishable "v" logo on the man's tracksuit top, which was obviously how the general customers were supposed to identify him as a member of staff. It took me at least 15 minutes to download and set up the app, enter my payment details and order. I really wasn't sure whether my drink would go to a customer in the Bury branch 🙄. Not a great experience at all. Management need to have CLEAR signage at the entrance to the bar area AND on the bar itself to avoid these situations. As for the rude barman.... His colleague told me I was the 3rd person to mention his attitude that day.... And apparently it was only his first week!!
