"Lovely hotel in a fantastic location. Went to a gig at the National Bowl so this was a great location within half an hour's walk of the bowl. I can be fussy with mattress comfort as I like a soft bed, and even though this was on the firm side of my preference, I did find the bed really comfy. The hotel text to ask how our room was (a really nice touch) and I asked for an extra couple.of pillows. These were delivered within ten minutes so great service. Complimentary bottles of water and tea and coffee all included with a fridge. We had a view over the pitch... Neither of us are.football fans, but it was a nice novelty!
Breakfast was good with a great selection of fruits and ham and cheeses with pastries and cereal as well as cooked breakfast all help yourself. They had scrambled, fried and poached eggs all on the buffet which was a nice touch. The mushrooms could have had a bit more love as they seemed to just be boiled, but everything else was good.
There are a good selection of restaurants next door to the arena,.most with outdoor seating next to the cinema so plenty of choice for evening meals. There are also a few shops next door, as well as Asda, Ikea, and fast food options of Maccies, KFC and Burger King.
Easy to get to, great location, comfy spacious rooms and a good breakfast. Not the cheapest hotel around, but I would stay again. "
