    The only very slight downside is the T.V on the wall was very small for a room the size it is, but I think if that's the only thing you can come up with you don't have much to be concerned about.

    I have stayed here before, and it's a great place to relax given the surroundings. The restaurant and bar area are fantastic, and the food is of a very good standard. Rooms are a good size and bathroom facilities are good. Bed was very comfortable.

    It was a buffet breakfast day. Had to ask for sugar, and other breakfast items which quite obvious to everyone including staff had run out and needed replenishing.

    Quirky but good size rooms. Shower has very good pressure

    The sockets could have been next to the bed for ease of charging phones. They were located over the other side of the room but that was the only thing.

    The room was clean, the bed was exceptionally comfy - we had a great nights sleep! The location was around the corner from the Car Chase Heroes event which we attended. All around a great weekend. Would recommend the hotel to anyone!

    We were asked to leave a pre-payment of £100 as they had experienced some vandalism in the past. We were not too pleased with this.

    The whole hotel had been renovated in Art-Deco style to a lovely standard.

    Although the staff were polite there was no energy, barely raised a smile, at breakfast didn’t even get a good morning and had to chase the young girl to get more coffee put through filter, not very attentive. Older man I presume duty manager about didn’t acknowledge any customers at all that we saw. It’s a shame as this hotel really smart.

    Art deco old aerodrome very unusual and really cool. Comfortable rooms again in art deco style, lovely restaurant and bar overlooking the aerodrome. Simple menu but well done. Nice breakfast
