The location clearly worked well for your visit, but I understand that the parking charge came as an unwelcome surprise, especially as you had stayed with us before. Your point about making the charge more visible during booking is worth considering, as clearer information upfront would help avoid frustration on arrival. I also take your comments about the car park itself and the lack of EV charging facilities on board. Thank you for taking the time to explain your concerns.

Booked initially with Booking.com and then via phone directly to reception for an extra night. I have stayed there before and was never charged for parking, On arrival I had to pay £10 per night. I was NOT Happy. The receptionist pointed out where it said to pay for parking per night on both their site and on Booking.com. This was not obvious at all, many people were complaining and with no other parking close by we all had to pay. The sites need to be clearer, this would then stop people complaining directly at the reception desk. On Book.com it clearly states Parking Private, On site. At THAT point it should say Parking Private, payment needed. On the hotel site It just says Car Park and you need to click on it to find it. So again simply say Payment needed for car parking. They have a football stadium close by and assume that parking charges were introduced because of that.....fine charge them and any wishing to park up to meet friends to car share, as it is close to the M5 motorway, very close. However £10 per night is excessive for hotel guests. Those coming to eat at the hotel were given free parking if they spent over £10 there. We Stayed, paid for breakfasts and ate in the restaurant every night. It needs sorting. Especially as the car Park is very tired and that there are no facilities for EV charging!!!

The location clearly worked well for your visit, but I understand that the parking charge came as an unwelcome surprise, especially as you had stayed with us before. Your point about making the charge more visible during booking is worth considering, as clearer information upfront would help avoid frustration on arrival.

Jade C. Families - Confirmed reviews ALL

We arrived 30 minutes after our check in time and one of our rooms was still not ready. The rooms were clean though the bathroom needed a bit of maintenance. The changing room/pool area needs A LOT of maintenance. Neither the hot tub or the sauna was working and there were members spitting on the floor inside the steam room. It is not a relaxing place as the sound of people talking echoes from the walls. The food and service was great at breakfast.

I am sorry that your stay got off to a frustrating start with one room still not ready after check-in time. Although the rooms were clean, the bathroom maintenance and condition of the leisure centre clearly fell short of expectations. With the hot tub and sauna out of order, and the behaviour you witnessed in the steam room, it is understandable that the pool area was not somewhere you could properly relax. The leisure centre should be a place to unwind, and your experience suggests we have work to do to make that possible. Your feedback gives us specific areas that need attention, particularly the upkeep of the facilities and the standards of cleanliness.

Room was cold. Heating not working. A stand alone heater was provided in the room which took hours to warm the room. Not forewarned at Reception

I am sorry you were not made aware of the issue at reception before settling into your room. Better communication would at least have given you the chance to make an informed decision. Thank you for bringing this to our attention. I appreciate how much this affected your stay.

Paula J. Families - Confirmed reviews ALL

Parking was perfect, right near the hotel. Would have been better to have been free with the booking. Hotel is clean and well presented. Lovely friendly staff. Room was a good size and clean. Slightly disappointed that the jacuzzi and sauna was out of order but still had the pool which was lovely. We had a full English breakfast on one of our mornings which was good, with plenty of choice, nice and warm. Definitely would recommend. We had been told the area was not a great place but the location of the hotel was good and perfect for our commute on both days we were there. First day trip into Birmingham Town Centre, which we travelled on the number 74 bus, bus stop just around the corner. We then travelled on our last day to Wolverhampton to David Austin Centre, so was a perfect stay right inbetween the two. We had a lovely suprise on our first day after arriving we had mentioned when booking in that we were away for our birthday (twin sister) when we came back to the room it had balloons, banner, card and 2 boxes of chocolates.

Glad we could add a little surprise to your stay! I understand the disappointment about the sauna and jacuzzi being out of order, and your point about parking costs. Thank you for recommending us and for sharing such a lovely account of your stay. I hope you both had a wonderful birthday!

Fiona P. Families - Confirmed reviews ALL

Although the inside of the hotel and room was lovely, it was very cold. The heating unit was broken and had a fault. It was known previously as a heater was already in the room. One tiny heater made little difference to the temperature so we requested another one. This was brought up but after 1/2 hour there was still no heat coming from it so we requested another one. This was again brought up and did work, but was very dirty. The lady said she had tried to clean it but someone has spilt something on it. No other twin rooms were available to swap rooms. We ended up sitting in bed under the covers as it was so cold.

I am sorry that the room was so cold during your stay. Having to request multiple heaters, wait for them to work, and then receive one that was not clean is far from the comfortable experience you should have had. I can understand how frustrating it must have been, especially with no alternative twin room available and no real way to get comfortable beyond sitting under the covers. Thank you for taking the time to explain what happened. The heating issue and condition of the replacement heater are both disappointing, and your comments deserve attention.

Sukhdev D. Solo - Confirmed reviews ALL

Food and room were fine. I am NOT happy that you have introduced car parking charges for loyal customers. I may decide to stay at a different hotel next time.

Ten years of choosing the same hotel is a real show of loyalty, so I understand why the introduction of parking charges has left you disappointed. Even when the room and food are as expected, an additional cost can change how you feel about the overall value of a stay. I am sorry this has made you reconsider staying with us in future.

George F. Couples - Confirmed reviews ALL

Excellent friendly and helpful staff. Good breakfast for the cost. Clean room. Use of swimming pool was good in the leisure centre below, but the leisre centre facilities are dates and need renovation.

Friendly service, a clean room and a good breakfast are a solid foundation for any stay, and it is encouraging that these aspects worked well for you. The swimming pool was another positive, although I understand your point about the leisure centre looking dated. The facilities could certainly do with some attention to bring them up to the same standard as the rest of the hotel. Thank you for the 9/10 rating. We appreciate you recognising the positives while being honest about where we could do better.

Steven N. Friends - Confirmed reviews ALL

Generally the hotel room was fine but I was shocked at how dirty the changing facilities were and general appearance of the health suite. I so enjoy a swim on a stay away and I spent literally 10 minutes in your facility. On getting dried I stood on a black mat and the dirt and grime around it had obviously been there for a long time, totally disgusting!

I will escalate your comments about the cleanliness to the relevant team, as this needs attention. I am sorry that something you were looking forward to ended up being such a disappointment and overshadowed your stay with us.

Really good location, if a bit hidden away, which can be good. Lovely reception staff greated me, fine room, ok food, expensive bar, but isn’t everywhere now? Only down side was the pool area is the next part of the hotel that could do with some tlc to bring it up to the same standard as elsewhere.

Sounds like the hotel worked well for your stay, from the handy location and friendly reception team to the room and food. Bar prices do seem to have a habit of creeping up everywhere these days. You make a fair point about the pool area needing some attention, and I agree it would benefit from a little care to bring it closer to the standard of the rest of the hotel. Thank you for the 8/10 and for sharing your thoughts. Hopefully, we will see you again on another visit to the area.

Customer review rating 3.5/5

David W. Families - Confirmed reviews ALL

Pleasant stay in the hotel but one of the reasons we chose it was the fact of it having a spa to use. Swimming lessons were on and the Sauna and Jacuzzi were broken leaving only half a swimming pool and a steam room. Would have been nice to have been notified that only half the facilities were actually working, maybe would have saved some dissappointment.

I can understand the disappointment, especially when the spa was one of the main reasons you chose to stay with us. With swimming lessons taking place and the sauna and jacuzzi out of order, the facilities available were clearly more limited than you expected. You make a fair point about being informed in advance, as this would have helped you make a more informed decision when booking. I am sorry the spa experience was not what you had hoped for. Hopefully, if you decide to visit us again, you will get to enjoy the facilities that were missing this time around.

James M. Couples - Confirmed reviews ALL

We were placed on the 4th floor, air con wasn't working and room was quite cold. A replacement oil heater was given that didn't work, another was sourced. Shower took 10 minutes to warm up and the hotel all feels a bit tired and would benefit from a complete renovation. The reception area, bar and restaurant are all of a good standard and the staff were welcoming and supportive.

I am sorry the room was cold and the air conditioning and replacement heaters caused so much inconvenience. I understand your comments about the hotel feeling tired, and appreciate you being honest about where we are falling short. It is good to know the reception, bar, restaurant and team made a better impression, and that you felt welcomed and supported during your stay. Thank you for taking the time to share your experience.
