Throwley Hotels

"Friendly staff, clean rooms and public areas, good breakfast."

"The overall property is in need of care. It is a very interesting, almost grand building but it needs refurbishing and better maintenance. The staff was welcoming and tried to be helpful (see below) We had reserved a room with air conditioning. It did not work. We were told that the system would be replaced by the summer! We asked for a fan, we were given a small broken clip fan, we made it work somehow. The food at the temporary restaurant was limited in choice and quality because of ongoing work at the main restaurant. We had been told about the work through an email message from the property after we had reserved. There is a bar but little knowledge as to how to make even basic cocktails. The breakfast buffet was good with a good choice of food, the coffee machine needed to be thoroughly repaired or changed, it did not percolate efficiently for americanos or expressos."

"Didn’t quite realise how ideally situated it is to the tunnel to France Staff very friendly and helpful, particularly with directions to the terminal We had a meal of an evening which was more than nice enough and breakfast as well, which is well presented and laid out fine selection plenty enough for the road"

"Room clean, breakfast good plenty choice. Staff friendly"

"Check in was simple and easy, Room was a lovely size with a king size bed. Bathroom was clean and tidy with a walk in shower and rainfall shower. Breakfast was good, typical buffet with hot and cold options. All the staff were brilliant, friendly and very helpful. "

"The room wash clean. The staff were friendly. The room was falling apart. Couldn't close bathroom door. Toilet seat kept slipping off the toilet. Bunkbed needed tightening up as very wobbly. So we moved top mattress to the floor. Swimming pool was lovely. Had shower room afterwards with no hot water at all. Great location. Rooms are probably prone to being trashed. If you are looking for somewhere to just put your head at night, then it is great. Don't expect anything else. "

"The staff were very good and evening meal and breakfast very nice. Very disappointed with the fact the key card holder said the bar opened TV12 noon on Saturday but when we asked staff they said it was not open until 3pm. We had arranged to meet friends in the bar at 12 noon so we all had to go into town before the football match which was the purpose of our stay. Maybe someone can amend the information."

"Free parking which is so handy. The room was much better than expected and was clean and comfortable. I think we lucked out on the room we got. Decent for cheap I didn’t really see any staff other than one man who wouldn’t let us in the building after we had returned. We had to get our friend who had already to come home to let us in and then he made us stay so he can check the room was booked for 3 - despite me saying it was booked for 3. In one sense this is good for safety but another sense we were three young girls in early twenties with an older man who was getting aggy with us. But I do understand it’s for safety ? When trying to find a staff at reception to ask about parking no one was there and did not come for ages so we just left it. "
