Bad experience It was very bad experience. We stayed 3 hours waiting to check in. most of the customers checked in 1 hour before us although we came before everyone. The receptionist was so rude when I pointed out to her that we waited for too long. They advertised the room is bed and breakfast and the breakfast is included. However in reality after we arrived they said we have to pay £25 per person for it. They also advertised the hotel as 5 stars, but in their sign it was 4 stars, but in reality it is less than 1 star. The room is so small, and smelly, with badly decorated/closure design. the carpet is filthy, became bald from too much use, and with many spots. The cushions appear as they never have been washed. The bed linens was not changed, and not clean. This experience spoiled our holiday. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/8203AD7D21C153BB631BF14C06A9C0C7968298C61648305812884.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/2F0AB837419513539CCE60FA2486E38EAB636F6C1648305808960.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/79702D6F5F043A4A31B30FBD78F14C12D75DEE151648305812436.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/A5F769C9E9D26812722ACE8DF27F1C3A7D2CD1DE1648305810321.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Mar 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Maria Mar 23, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Disliked: Amenities Everything we booked for was exceptional, the room, the food and the service is excellent.

Disappointed with the noise and the hotels minimal goodwill offer of £100 to say sorry (against a £1,200 bill). ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Nov 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Oct 13, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Luxurious mini stay Staff couldn’t do enough for us- made our entire stay super relaxing and enjoyable. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2019 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Holiday Inn Express Hamilton by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Hamilton-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Express-Hamilton.h1889137.Hotel-Information) > > [Luxury Beach House Rental with Hot Tub, 30 meters to Beach](https://www.expedia.ca/Looe-Hotels-Luxury-Beach-House-Rental-With-Hot-Tub.h27313935.Hotel-Information) > > [Bonkle House](https://www.expedia.ca/Wishaw-Hotels-Bonkle-House.h15996183.Hotel-Information) > > [Unique Luxury Escapes](https://www.expedia.ca/Diss-Hotels-Unique-Luxury-Escapes.h29745570.Hotel-Information) > > [The Harlow Hotel By AccorHotels](https://www.expedia.ca/Harlow-Hotels-The-Harlow-Hotel-By-AccorHotels.h950.Hotel-Information) > > [Travelodge Gatwick Airport Central](https://www.expedia.ca/Gatwick-Hotels-Travelodge-Gatwick-Airport-Central.h10160516.Hotel-Information) > > [Delta Hotels by Marriott Peterborough](https://www.expedia.ca/Peterborough-Hotels-Peterborough-Marriott-Hotel.h691233.Hotel-Information) > > [Bloc Hotel London Gatwick Airport](https://www.expedia.ca/Gatwick-Hotels-Bloc-Hotel-London-Gatwick-Airport.h6594190.Hotel-Information) > > [Park Inn by Radisson Peterborough](https://www.expedia.ca/Peterborough-Hotels-Park-Inn-By-Radisson-Peterborough.h2254377.Hotel-Information) > > [The Pearl Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Peterborough-Hotels-The-Pearl-Hotel.h6335144.Hotel-Information) > > [The Manor House](https://www.expedia.ca/Scarborough-Hotels-The-Manor-House.h44509462.Hotel-Information) > > [Hampton by Hilton Hamilton Park](https://www.expedia.ca/Hamilton-Hotels-Hampton-By-Hilton-Hamilton-Park.h33810078.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Express Peterborough by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Peterborough-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Express-Peterborough.h281577.Hotel-Information) > > [Days Inn by Wyndham Peterborough](https://www.expedia.ca/Peterborough-Hotels-Days-Inn-By-Wyndham-Peterborough.h2928593.Hotel-Information) > > [No Man's Fort](https://www.expedia.ca/Portsmouth-Hotels-No-Mans-Fort.h11536410.Hotel-Information) > > [Mercure Northampton](https://www.expedia.ca/Northampton-Hotels-Park-Inn-By-Radisson-Northampton-Town-Centre.h12543.Hotel-Information) > > [Novotel Milton Keynes](https://www.expedia.ca/Milton-Keynes-Hotels-Novotel-Milton-Keynes.h892420.Hotel-Information) > > [Camelot Castle Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Tintagel-Hotels-Camelot-Castle-Hotel.h8083111.Hotel-Information) > > [Pennyhill Park Hotel And Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Bagshot-Hotels-Pennyhill-Park-Hotel-And-Spa.h517256.Hotel-Information) > > [Radisson BLU Hotel Durham](https://www.expedia.ca/Durham-Hotels-Radisson-BLU-Hotel-Durham.h2226171.Hotel-Information) > > [Hampton by Hilton London Gatwick Airport](https://www.expedia.ca/Gatwick-Hotels-Hampton-By-Hilton-London-Gatwick-Airport.h7234788.Hotel-Information) > > [Heated indoor pool & spa, countryside holiday cottage near the beach & park](https://www.expedia.ca/Hastings-Hotels-Heated-Indoor-Pool-Spa.h18971402.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton London Gatwick Airport](https://www.expedia.ca/Gatwick-Hotels-Hilton-London-Gatwick-Airport.h20753.Hotel-Information) > > [Lumley Castle Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Chester-Le-Street-Hotels-Lumley-Castle-Hotel.h175571.Hotel-Information) > > [Sandman Signature London Gatwick Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Crawley-Hotels-Sandman-Signature-London-Gatwick-Hotel.h6579.Hotel-Information) > > [Lakes Hotel and Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Windermere-Hotels-Lakes-Hotel-And-Spa.h901040.Hotel-Information) > > [Pinewood Lodge](https://www.expedia.ca/Ibstock-Hotels-Pinewood-Lodge.h17183221.Hotel-Information) > > [The Crown hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Woodbridge-Hotels-The-Crown-Hotel.h520172.Hotel-Information)
