    Breakfast was included in the rate, but rather limited range. It was fine, but nothing particularly special. Vegetarian and vegan sausages were available but cooked to order and would take up to twenty minutes so I went without. Pool and gym are across the road in a separate building.

    Very comfortable bed, slept well. Staff were very helpful, especially at breakfast- made sure my baby and I were seated comfortably 4th floor room had a nice view of the hills. Room felt clean and well maintained. Very busy over a Bank Holiday weekend, but dealt with us efficiently and the breakfast area didn't have queues even at 10am

    The bathroom was extremely dated and cramped. The breakfast was great but no where near enough seating. And the walls were paper thin, so could here everything going on in the hallways and rooms next door.

    Having to pay for the car park even though it was discounted. The fact my request for a certain type of room was not acknowledged and I had to ask to be moved. The fact that one bed was pushed against a wall when there was plenty of room to move away. The continental breakfast was lacking in choice - better selection of pastries etc would be acceptable.

    On arrival we were not allocated the room I had requested, but this was swiftly rectified. Room and facilities adequate for an over night stay. Breakfast was adequate. Close proximity to car park and centre. Comfortable bed.

    Hotel was extremely busy on my final night (Saturday) and unfortunately this meant it was pretty noisy on my floor (1st) until late into the night. I was disappointed that a large group had been allowed to take over the bar area for some kind of club event, which precluded any other paying guests making use of the space. As a woman travelling alone, I would also have felt safer if the hotel stopped people without key cards from accessing the floors containing the accommodation.

    Easy check-in process. Decent breakfast included. Good sized room, which was clean and everything worked. Praise to the weekend breakfast staff, who kept things running smoothly despite it being very busy.

    First room given to us smelt like stale cigarettes - we asked for another room which was provided. Noisy traffic, suggest you ask for a room not facing teh road.

    Great location, 1 minutes walk to the brewery quarter with all it's pubs and eating places. Good breakfast.

    Paying for parking in the NCP carpark across the road...there were issues with the ticketing and payment which was not the fault of IHG. Thankfully, IHG reception staff validated our parking ticket so we received a discount.

    True to IHG standard, the room was as we expected: clean, well appointed, comfortable bed, spacious, free wifi. The breakfast was very good, well stocked and good coffee. The location was very handy to our needs.

    Breakfast was extremely avoid busy times. Otherwise, you'll be sitting on pool table. Otherwise, great. The room was not serviced the second day. Mean with milk and tea. Although reception happy to provide more. NCP right next door, or but whilst they have discount still expensive

    Breakfast time is a really chaotic. All staff are in the kitchen only coming out to refill food. No staff outside the dining area to attend to guest needs and clear tables. Guests ends up eating in tables with used plates in them. It ends up breakfast is taking longer as having to wait for tables to get cleared. We have stayed at other holiday inn which has at least 2 staff in dining area to direct guest where to sit and to clear tables. More efficient and comfortable that way

    good location close to restaurants and shops. High street is just a minute away. Parking is also across the hotel plus discount is provided. Clean room.
