The plus points - the dining room is beautiful. The down side was that the hotel was extremely over priced for the condition of the 'standard' room that we were allocated, which was small with very tired dacor. The Hotel is in need of a complete overhaul of its plumbing, the shower never drained properly, then on the final night the toilet wouldn't drain. We were moved to a 'Superior' room which turned put to have the same drainage problem with its shower. In the 1st room towels had to be used to stop the overflow from the shower reaching the room. Despite the issue being reported several times the fault was not resolved and the wet towel were never removed. Overall a very disappointing experience. For the price we paid you would expect a 'Superior' room with fully functioning facilities.

Hotel is nice my only negative is that they don’t except cash anywhere in the hotel not at checkout not in restaurant and not even in the bar. We had a family room on the top floor which was big bright & spacious shower was very good plenty hot water. We had bottles of water biscuits tea coffee milk kettle ironing board. Couldn’t fault our room. Breakfast was excellent lots of cereals yogurts fresh fruits etc plus the usual bacon eggs sausage etc.

Loved we could take our dog, the room was down a lovely path to the back of the hotel on the groundfloor. Table and chairs outside so we could sit and have a drink in the sunshine. Friendly staff could not do enough. Free parking behind hotel overall loved our visit.

Worth staying there for the dining room alone. Although the hotel said it had car parking, there were very few spaces and the majority of guests parked in a free public car park behind the hotel. However, you could only park for 24 hours and couldn't return within 4 hours.

I stayed here to see the Olympic interior. Very interesting. The only downside was no lifts and lots of steps. The rooms at the rear are the best ones to book. Probably could do with a re-vamp and a bit of colour in the rooms. Please change those blinds in the upstairs rooms 😂 I would stay again in tge rooms at the back with a nice outside area 👍
