This hotel is a gem,tastefully decorated from a recent make over. Staffed by friendly happy staff who bend over backwards to make your stay as pleasant as possible. Food well served and presented . Service five star. If up that way again will be stopping there again. Rates very reasonable to.

Stayed here while travelling on business. The hotel was very neat and tidy and the staff very helpful and polite. When checking in discovered that we got a free newspaper and wifi connection which I thought was a nice touch considering the other holiday inns I have stayed in. The bar was very pleasant as was the restaurant albeit a... More

My family stayed here for my Nephews wedding over the late May bank holiday weekend, and I have to say we were pleasantly surprised, looking at the outside of the building gives no real indication of how nice it actually is inside. Firstly, the hotel as a venue, everything was faultless, the room was decorated beautifully, and just as the... More

This is very conveniently placed at the junction at Scotch Corner and with good double glazing little or no traffic noise can be heard in the comfortable bedrooms. The staff were welcoming and the breakfast was good without being excellent. We arrived and had forgotten toothpaste but a supply was provided by reception. On the Friday evening a wedding reception... More

At first glance the Holiday Inn looks a bit dated from the outside, but once you get in there is a lot going for it. The interior has been fitted out to a high standard and is clean and welcoming. We can't say enough good things about the staff, always smiling, helpful, and very customer orientated. The breakfast room staff... More
