Village Hotel Coventry

Spacious

Cold breakfast and cheap t bags

Bar closed early but overall really good

All ok

Rooms were spacious.Staff were friendly. Very nice breakfast. Good location for using local buses.

Having to pay extra for parking Poor lighting in bathroom and bedroom for doing make up Location not great for getting to the Arena. The hotel was offered as a package for the Take That concert. We booked taxis in advance so quite expensive.

check-in was easy and quick (as was check-out) The Gym was fabulous - i know Village hotels have a good rep for having good gyms (i was a gym member at my local one for years) - but it really was good with multiple rooms and studios including a 'strength' focussed room which i really enjoyed. Parking was good - i used the electric car chargers which were a bit pricey but convenient - although, i am never sure why hotels invest in 8 or 9 'fast' chargers (these were 400Kw - so very fast!) when as a hotel guest i'd rather have a slow charger which is "bookable" and i'd park the car up all night on charge - but anyway - it seems to be Village policy to have fast ones. Bar area was nice and had a good selection of beers on tap - i liked it there.

room was a bit odd... - the club room was miles away (and an elaborate route of ups and downs) from reception. There was a bit of a freshly-painted smell about the place - but the weirdest thing was that it was a large room but no real bits of furniture in there. A large gap between bed and window seemed missing a couple of chairs and a table - maybe it was missing those? negative point - even though it was booked for two adults, we were sharing just one towel! - great

The relaxed atmosphere

There was scaffolding outside my window and the windows could not be opened fully. The scaffolding made the room very dark. I was woken early by builders in the scaffolding. There was swearing and talking loudly. They had a radio on at full volume. I was stopping here overnight for the funeral of a close friend. To be honest I’d have preferred to not have been getting ready for this whilst 90’s dance anthems were playing loudly. There was no warning of the building work at point of purchase or at check-in.
