Breakfast has a variety of items, everything you’ll need to set you up for the day. It’s reasonably central and a 10 minute walk into town.

The car park is a first come first served basis. There is an overflow car park but part of it isn’t tarmac, overgrown grass and looks like waste land. Be careful as some cars block you in and you can’t find the people as they’ve gone out for the day. We had to wait over an hour to get out!! The doors in the rooms slam shut if you’re not careful closing them, not very nice at whatever hour your neighbours come back from the pub or club and wakes you up. There’s no view from whatever room you have so don’t come here if you’re looking one. The ac was broken but a fan provided. Be careful when you book through Booking.com as we requested a twin room but the request didn’t filter down to the hotel, luckily the last on reception man he’s to find us the last twin room.

Great hotel, very clean, tidy and comfortable. Enjoyable, relaxed breakfast with well prepared and presented food. Exceptionally friendly and courteous staff with the exception of the receptionist which is why I can’t give 10.

On our arrival we were greeted with a rude and unhelpful receptionist named Sharon. We were expecting a double bed room, however, according to Sharon, because we booked through Booking.com (which she reiterated at least three times) the room choice was at the discretion of the hotel. So consequently we had to accept a twin room even though when we checked, the hotel still had double rooms available on that day.

Room adequate shower and bed comfort very good, clean room. Breakfast and evening meal in restaurant very good in terms of food and especially staff attentiveness and friendly service, every member of staff we enacted with throughout our stay, but especially Jacob and Bethany. Chanced on the Manager in his office and was pleased to convey the above comments to him, he was as good as his staff. Hotel location excellent for pedestrian centre access without suffering city centre disadvantages such as noise or difficult access.

Bathroom (shower room) barely large enough ( not something that could be improved ) Car parking although an asset should be included in cost not additional charge. Although room was clean the toilet persistently suffered from a failing seal between cistern to pan , annoying. The stair bannisters were dirty transferring to hands if used as intended. We reported both faults to reception, who thanked us for the information.

I have to be honest - I have tried to avoid this Hotel chain over the past few years, but booked this as it was within easy distance of where my event was. I was very positively surprised by the Hotel. It was accessible, clean, comfortable, everything in the room was well appointed and the staff were beyond helpful! The event I attended was a late one and driving back in, the car park was all secure and I was able to enter as there was ANPR - this made me feel really safe and secure too.

Nothing - the Hotel was spotless and I am a bit gutted that I didn't photograph the mattress brand so that I could buy one for home, it was so comfy! The room had everything we needed and I would definitely go back.

I know Bolton and the Hotel Is only a stones throw from town centre. Enough bars and pubs for a good evening, but best part was going only moments to a big fat double comfy clean mattress and bed.Exceptionally good breakfast, and wonder working staff.

There's nothing that I didn't like, the staff, the food, the room and the bed get Top brass from my honest opinion, the cleaning lady works double bubble and is lovely, and the bed was a fantastically big fat comfy mattress which major brownie points and is spotlessly clean....the staff, are all very polite and approachable... No complaints at all.... I loved it!!!!

Standard hotel of a well-known brand, so you know what you can expect. Good for a short stay. Very friendly staff. The wifi in the room was poor but I got another room with better wifi reception immediately. Comfortable bed in relatively large room. Curtains close of daylight very well. Decent but not exceptional breakfast. Bathroom clearly refurbished in a modern style.

The room did not smell fresh. It was not allowed/possible to open the window (presumably because the room is just above the fans of the outdoor AC units (luckily it was not warm enough to need AC, so the units did not make noise). The bathroom is rather small.

The hotel was central, has parking on site for £5 a night and it was clean. Staff were lovely and always happy to help. Breakfast and meals were pretty good.

We were down for the Ironman 70.3. If we wanted the bike to be in our room it was a £50 deposit which is understandable to a degree but a bit annoying. The storage they offered for the bike for free, meant that they weren’t insured if anyone stole or broke the bike whilst in storage.

The room was a decent size and the ensuite shower was very modern and and large. Overall very clean. Great value. The staff were very attentive and I single out Dipak who headed up the breakfast brigade. Very friendly welcome and he looked after the other guests with the same open manner. The receptionist last night was very professional when the door key was not working. A new one produced very promptly. A very good place for a solo traveller on a one night stay. Recommended.

Nothing .

There's a 24-hour desk and the staff is nice. I arrived quite late yet they were helpful and welcoming. I was disappointed with the breakfast because there were no vegan options (not even soya/oat milk), but that's a very common issue these days. The room was basic, but it was clean and the bed was comfy. Stable WIFI, good location, not too far from the railway station.

There was an incident due to a technical issue in the bathroom (shower door). I told the staff and was quickly moved to another room. Later on, I made a complaint which was handled professionally: the manager compensated me by adding some free points to my IHG account. I appreciated the manager's responsiveness and was satisfied with that resolution.
