Reviews and Ratings
The hotel rooms were really comfortable with amenities like a hairdryer, kettle, tea & coffee, shampoo & conditioner, and a refrigerator. Despite the proximity to a dual carriageway, the stay was pleasant. The staff was friendly and efficient, although service at breakfast needed improvement. The location was convenient, with great views of the racecourse and surroundings, but transportation might be needed. The dining experience had excellent choices but inconsistencies in quality for some dishes. Overall, the hotel offers good value for money considering the facilities available.
The hotel offers great rooms with very comfortable beds and excellent staff, but lacks the quality of a seasoned tradesman in terms of craftsmanship. The service is top-notch, with a memorable receptionist and accommodating housekeeping. The location is pleasant, especially for travelers on the A14 route, and the dining options are delicious albeit a bit pricier. Overall, a good value for money with some room for improvement.
I found this hotel to be a mixed experience. The rooms were clean and comfortable, but the shower attachment made showering unpleasant. The service was friendly and helpful, but Sunday breakfast could have been better. The location was convenient for travelers but required transportation for certain attractions. The dining options were somewhat limited, but the wood-fired pizza was a highlight.
