Really great room
Lovely pool
Breakfast good but would’ve liked a choice of eggs
Now the negative why oh why do hotel guests have to pay for parking? It’s a big car park and isn’t near city centre or anywhere that would make lots of non residents want to park there.
If you’re using the pool or leisure facilities then you’re able to park for free but hotel guests are charged £8 per night.
I have researched lots of other Marriott hotels across the country and even some of the city centre ones offer free parking to their guests.
I think it’s a very poor decision to charge your hotel guests to park.

Hotel was nice and modern, good amenities, plenty of parking and bedroom was spacious and good bathroom. The gym was ok but very dirty, it looked like it hasn’t been cleaned in a while. I went in both days of my stay and I don’t think the floors were cleaned once.

The moment you step into the hotel you get the feeling of being in a 5 star hotel. A warm welcome from the reception team who gave us an efficient yet friendly check in.
The room was amazing very clean and certainly above what we expected. Tea and coffee, lots of towels, comfy bed, giant tv, plenty of pillows.
All the staff were excellent and the breakfast was very good. Could not fault anything.
