“The hotel's extensive golf facilities are a major draw, though some aspects of the property show their age. I noticed a divide between the well-regarded spa and golf offerings, versus some inconsistent reports on room conditions. For families wanting a varied experience near both Birmingham and Coventry, it could still serve as a solid base.”

We had an overall great experience at the hotel, with huge portions at lunch and a lovely setting. The rooms were clean and well-kept, but the dining experience was a letdown during dinner with poor food quality. The staff went above and beyond to help us, and there were also good activities for kids. However, the inconsistent quality of food in the restaurant has room for improvement.

I had a pleasant stay with a few highlights and drawbacks. The staff were genuinely friendly and attentive, making my experience enjoyable. The room was spacious and well-appointed, though it had some cleanliness issues that were a bit off-putting. Although the dining options were generally good, the breakfast was a mixed bag with some delicious highlights and a few overpriced menu items. Overall, the hotel had potential but still needs some improvements to reach its full standard.

I stayed at this hotel for a conference, and while it had a lovely pool and was generally clean, there were some drawbacks. The dining experience was particularly disappointing due to the food quality and staff knowledge regarding dietary restrictions. My family and I enjoyed the spaciousness of the pool area, but the double double room felt a bit cramped with four people. Overall, it had its pros and cons, but I left with mixed feelings.

I had a lovely stay at this hotel, with a perfect location near the NEC arena that made everything super convenient. The rooms and public areas were all clean and well-kept, and the staff truly made the experience special with their attentiveness. Unfortunately, my spa experience didn't meet my expectations, as there were too many children around, and some facilities were out of order. Overall, it's a mixed bag but worth considering for a relaxing getaway.
