Wonderful stay at Crowne Plaza. Everything was perfect. The room was clean and the bed was super comfortable. Breakfast was 10/10. The best thing about the experience was the staff. A big thank you to everyone for making us feel so welcome (especially Finn and Hans at Reception). Service at breakfast ...

Forest of Arden Hotel & Country Club
Overall a good stay with an amazing breakfast. Let down a little by only being given 2 towels for a 4 person room (reception did fix this straight away) and the WiFi being significantly slower than the 25mbps advertised which was one of the reasons why we chose that hotel
