The staff were all lovely and helpful. Our room was on 8th floor, was very hot, the toilet played it with flushing. Had breakfast 10 pound each, wasn’t worth the money and cold.

It was a decent stay.
Staff told us off for being too loud even though we was just talking in our room at like 11pm, stupid tbh.
It was ok overall. Would stay again.
Area is good 10 mins walk from Crucible & 50 from Hillsborough.

The hotel staff were friendly but often gave contradictory information, particularly about parking. We ended up parking in the NCP carpark next door which was very cheap and convenient.
The room was satisfactory apart from the excessive heat. They did provide a fan but it didn't do much to cool the room.
The whole hotel was old and rundown. Outside the hotel was worse it was a derelict building site.
Breakfast was okay but not great for the money we paid

Excellent service. Would use again.
Excellent quality hotel for a good price. It's a little out of the city but close to Ponds Forge, but this is reflected in the price. The room was a good size, clean with a good space to work with a comfortable chair. The bathroom was a good size, clean and easy to use. The bed fit me (6' 3") well and was comfortable, the pillows were comfortable too. The staff were very friendly and helpful. If I am back in Sheffield I will certainly look at staying here again.

This is pretty central, train station 10 minutes walk, 15 minutes walk into the town. Property looks ok from the outside and so does reception. Staff were lovely when we checked in. The bedrooms on the other hand are dated and in need of a revamp. We had a dripping shower/bath for the whole weekend we were there. There was no room between the single beds. The room felt too small for a pull out bed too. So 3 Adults was a little cramped.

The room was perfect. It was clean and spacious. Bathroom was clean. The breakfast was very minimal. The only fruit available was either an apple or a banana there was no natural yoghurt only flavoured yoghurt pots. They just wasn’t much selection.
