Reviews and Ratings
I had a great stay at the hotel! The rooms were clean and comfortable, offering a nice view from the small balcony. The service was welcoming and friendly, although there were inconsistencies with providing accurate information. The location was perfect for my business trip, and the dining experience was outstanding despite slightly high prices. The facilities were well-maintained and functional.
The hotel rooms seemed like they had possibly been vacant for a while but were well appointed and comfortable, equipped with a mini fridge and actual working machines. The service offered top-notch quality, being very courteous and assisting from planning stages to shuttle bus schedules. The location was convenient for business trips, situated in a business park area, and while spacious, had some minor cleanliness issues. The dining experience provided a nice array of items but with slightly high prices. Overall, a good choice for those looking for a reliable stay with great service.
The hotel is conveniently located just outside Malvern, making it a handy spot for exploring the area. The rooms are clean and straightforward, although a bit small. The service was a mix of helpfulness and misinformation. Dining offers a nice variety of items but with slightly high prices. Overall, a decent stay with a few ups and downs.
