- Metuchela (6/5): The property was not bad. But the breakfast was not what I was expecting. - The property was not bad. But the breakfast was not what I was expecting. The property was not bad. But the breakfast was not what I was expecting.
- Louise (5/5): Impressive premises with potential staffed by uninterested individuals. - Clean room and bathroom. Comfortable bed. Reception staff poorly trained advising no prepayment for food etc necessary. Had to keep paying as required. Duty manager uninterested.
Advised that room service available. Button on phone not connected.
All staff busy chatting in groups in bar & restaurant. Reception staff surly.
- Jacqui (10/5): Perfect stay, whether you have a car or want to use local transportation it’s an ideal spot. - Location was ideal for local or day visits
- Adam (10/5): Really nice stay, I would definitely stay again. - Nice, clean, cosy, tucked away. Really nice hotel with loads of facilities close by.
- Lorraine (10/5): Well worth a visit. - Lovely venue for the party we attended but we have been there before and that was equally as nice. Nothing
- Helen (10/5): - Staff were very friendly and helpful. Breakfast and the staff serving it were very efficent
- Andrew (9/5): Good location, walking distance to centre of village and train station - The location was perfect for our needs The TV is slow
- Atherton (9/5): A very smooth, comfortable experience - Reception, housekeeping and bar/restaurant staff were all friendly and helpful. The room was well-equipped and spacious with a clean enquire. We really enjoyed our stay. The only small negatives for us were being able to hear other guests and the quality of the bed/bedding. Comfortable enough, but my partner was rolling towards the centre of the bed, which he dislikes.
- Tamasin Tulloch (10/5): A real gem! - The hotel was conveniently located but felt tucked away, which was nice. We were warmly greeted on check-in, and it was really refreshing as it was totally genuine. The staff member really wanted us to have a nice time. The decor was top notch and impeccably clean. Our room 115 was a signature room. It was lovely and quiet, well appointed, and was very comfortable. Everything from the sheets to the pillows was nice. Our breakfast in the morning was delicious. Again, the staff were happy and attentive. The whole hotel was beautiful and all thought out really well. There's plenty of parking, including EV and disabled. We will definitely return and feel like we've found a gem. The staff made a huge difference. I'm sorry I didn't catch the 2 ladies' names on reception.
- Christopher (10/5): -
- Roger (9/5): Extremely enjoyable visit to a birthday celebration with an overnight stay - Attended a function in the hotel's Rhyddings Suite. The staff were pleasant and efficient and the food was excellent. The room was very comfortable for an overnight stay and the breakfast was superb. N/A
- Richard (10/5): A comfortable stay in a good location. - It was a very comfortable room and very clean. The hotel was quiet. The location was perfect for my needs, and is well situated for local bus routes.
- Stephen (9/5): -
- Susan (10/5): 2nd visit.. - This is my second review. Quiet location, facilities for disabled users (except the Italian Restaurant which is down steps)
Warm and friendly staff, nothing too much trouble for them.
Great value for money, Restaurant and bar prices competitive and the food was beautiful.
Will definitely book again when back in this part of England. The Cennetta Restaurant is not wheelchair friendly, but aas a user of 2 crutches, I managed to get down the steps. Manager was very attentive to my situation and seated us appropriately.
- Michael (8/5): -
- paul (8/5): Quiet and relaxing and a great bar with lovely staff - Clean and well presented All good
- Cindy (5/5): All in all a pleasurable experience and would definitely return - Clean and well presented Shower was difficult to master plus water to fill the bath ran very slow
- Margaret (10/5): Have stayed many times before, wouldn’t stay anywhere else, food always excellent - Its all so convenient Too much grey in the bedroom! Don’t do grey!
- Courage (10/5): -

- Razeena (9/5): -
- Suzanne (9/5): Very homely much better than chain hotels. - Staff were amazing so helpful. The breakfasts were also excellent. No fridge
- Andreia (10/5): Amazing - This hotel exceeded my expectations. I heard before about this hotel many times, but to be honest I wasn't expecting to be so good as it is. This is one of the most beautiful and clean hotel that I have been lately. I went for a short break with my partner to switch off from busy life and it was lovely. The food is amazing and the staff friendly. I can't wait to re book again.
- HAYLEY (9/5): - Staff very friendly and helpful,Room was very nice and clean
- Samantha (7/5): - Rooms were lovely clean & comfortable The noise was terrible up & down the corridors people talking very loud & just overall disturbing our sleep
- Mike (8/5): Comfortable home from home, particularly the bar area. - As ever comfortable rooms, super friendly staff. Good value. The rooms at the rear are gloomy, and have a vista of the service yard and bins. Also the shower over bath arrangement isn’t ideal, prefer a walk in shower.
- Sarah (8/5): Met our needs well. Staff were exceptionally friendly. - Friendly staff. Easy parking. Thin walls meant we were woken up at 1am by noisy guests playing music in neighbouring room.
- Molly (10/5): -
- Anthony (7/5): Ok but room for improvement! - Restaurant is very good and the breakfast staff are some of the best you will find anywhere! People parking on EV charging points with no intension of charging or with non EV’s. Very frustrating if you have an EV and need to charge. Room (8) was very basic, no air con, tv didn’t work and overlooking dustbins!
- Naomi (9/5): -
- Susan (10/5): - Really friendly staff, lovely location and room was quiet at night.
Food was lovely in the Restaurant. Nothing to dislike here.
- J Lange (9/5): A very comfortable & relaxing stay - Both the bedroom and bathroom were spotlessly clean and tidy. The mattress was very comfortable, so I had 2 great nights of sleep. I had a gorgeous meal in the Cenetta restaurant on Sunday night. The shower was great at the right temperature. Nothing
- Jackie (9/5): The whole experience was very nice, would definitely stay here again. -
- Michael (9/5): As above, very comfortable at a competitive rate. - I chose this hotel primarily due to it's close location to family. A very comfortable 2 nights stay at a competitive rate. Very minor things, hooks on the bathroom door to hang robes or dressing gowns would be useful. No box of tissues in the room.

- Michelle (9/5): - Nina at reception is a conscientious, caring member of your team. If you have a concern, she will do her best to resolve it. The breakfast team, especially Julie, is as accommodating to make your stay welcoming. As a regular quest that's all you require with quality of food & room service.Thank you.

- Claire (8/5): Prima hotel! - De kamer had een prima formaat en was schoon; er was voldoende kastruimte, tafel en stoelen zijn aanwezig, en het heeft een nette badkamer. Het bed was comfortabel.
Ruim voldoende parkeergelegenheden. Er zijn 6 laadplekken met langzame laders (6kW), en deze zijn betaalbaar (wij hebben 50p per kWh betaald). Het hotel is ook goedbereikbaar vanaf de autoweg, binnen 5 minuten ben je er.
Het personeel, zowel van het hotel als de bijbehorende restaurants, was erg vriendelijk. Er is ook een waterfonteintje (eventueel met ijs) bij de receptie waar je je fles met gekoeld plat of bruis water kan vullen.
Het eten is erg goed; het ontbijt bestaat uit vers fruit, yoghurt, brood, etc. Daarnaast is het in de prijs inbegrepen dat je warm ontbijt kunt bestellen. Dit wordt dan vers bereid. Denk aan full English, eggs benedict, omelet, etc. Je kunt ook alleen scrambled eggs en bacon bestellen bijvoorbeeld. Wij hebben alleen warm ontbijt gehad, dit was ruim voldoende en kregen we vaak net op.
De bijbehorende restaurants zijn ook zeker een aanrader: bij the Royal Toby kun je gerechten uit de Britse keuken bestellen. Cenetta ligt op het terrein van het hotel, en hier waan je je in Italiaanse sferen. In beide restaurants is het eten lekker en de prijs/kwaliteit verhouding goed. Je gaat zeker niet met honger naar huis. Het ontbijt door de week is van 7-9, in het weekend van 8-10. Vooral door de week kan dit misschien vroeg zijn, maar je krijgt daar wel vers bereid eten voor terug.
Laden bij de laadpalen kan alleen met een app (PodPoint). Deze moet je opwaarderen voordat je start met laden. Het was fijner geweest als je met je eigen (laad)pas kon betalen, ipv van tevoren inschatten wat je kwijt zou zijn.
Klein ding: de verlichting was prima, maar de locatie van de lichtschakelaars was vaak onlogisch, en het was soms niet duidelijk welke schakelaar voor welke lamp was.
