Breakfast has diverse options, but they remain largely the same each day. Still, the food is palatable and satisfies a family. kids under eleven eat free dinners so it helps with the family budget.

Mediocre stay, cleanliness issues and uncomfortable sofa bed
poor cleanlinessuncomfortable sofa
I found the room cleanliness to be subpar. The bathroom needed more attention and I spotted some concerning stains on the bed sheets. The sofa bed was really uncomfortable and my kids did not sleep well due to the thin mattress and noticeable springs. I think two proper double beds would be better for a family room.

the breakfast had everything you needed, a decent spread for a hotel buffet.
the leisure club was a letdown. many lockers were broken in the changing rooms, a real shame. the changing room reminded me of a steam room, lacking proper extraction and a spinner to dry costumes.

Katie in the restaurant provided super attentive service during our dinner. She brought paper for my kids to make paper aeroplanes. The gym, pool and sauna were clean and enjoyable. Graham at the gym reception was chatty.
The breakfast wasn't great.

i stayed for a few nights and the staff were friendly, always willing to help. i especially appreciated marie, baby, dana, and samantha's great service during my dinner. the location was ideal for visiting the nearby harry potter studios, a short distance away. free meals for children made dining more affordable for families.
The gym was small and lacked some of the equipment i expected for a hotel of this size. A wider range of machines could improve this facility
