Really good Comfort

The room I stayed in was surprisingly spacious, featuring a comfy bed and a high-pressure shower that made my stay incredibly relaxing. Plus, the thoughtful amenities like coffee pods and fresh milk in the fridge elevated my experience.

Culinary Delight

Dinner at the hotel’s restaurant was a highlight, with exquisitely cooked steak accompanied by a good sauce. The desserts were simply mouthwatering, adding a delicious finish to our meal.

Refreshing Experience

The bathroom was equipped with a full wet room that made my shower experience luxurious. The provided shampoo and shower gel had an amazing fragrance, and the ample towels were good to use.

Thoughtful Amenities

I was pleasantly surprised to find a 'forgettables' basket at reception with essentials like toothpaste and shoe polish. It was a useful touch that showed consideration for guests' needs.

The hotel is situated right in the heart of Congleton, making it perfect for what I needed. The rooms were a bit noisy despite being advertised as soundproof, and it could use a couple of coat hooks inside the door area. However, the bathroom with a freestanding bath was a nice touch.

The hotel is perfectly situated in the heart of Congleton, right over the road from the town center. The rooms are cozy and comfortable with some minor inconveniences. The service was attentive and welcoming, with a thoughtful gesture for our special occasion. The dining experience had its drawbacks but offered the convenience of extended hours for meals. Overall, a great location with some room for improvement in the dining area.

The room with the exceptionally comfortable bed above the bar had charming wooden beams and a bath, but it was near an exit that caused noise disturbances. The shower being a wet room led to minor flooding.
