Location was excellent for what I required the room for including the accessibility to leave early. The hotel section has security camera's so you felt safe during the night, and you had access to the pub next door for a meal/beverage, with heaters for seating outside. Staff and 'pub-dog' were incredibly welcoming and friendly. Upon arrival there was no-one at the reception desk, but the pub next door had a the information required and the keys for the entry to your room. The rooms were basic, 3 piece white suit in the bathroom which is dated with some holes in the wall. A file is located on the desk by the TV, with a the information of the services provided including the take-away pizza you can get from the pub to eat in the room, and other information regarding your stay within the facilities. All rooms have a kettle with tea and coffee, access to get more over the counter down at reception. (Fortunately I brought my own milk) Bed was comfortable and the room looked out over the rear carpark. For 1 night stay, at a basic rate, it was acceptable and reasonable value for money. Overall, my stay was satisfactory with excellent location, friendly staff, and basic amenities, though the WiFi signal was frustratingly poor and the room didn't match the advertised photos.

During the evening I wanted to get some work completed however due to the diabolical signal from the WiFi (Pub WiFi and 5G attempted), it was incredibly painful and time consuming to attempt to sign off activities - this led to me giving up in the end. (Room wasn't like the advertised photos)

All the staff I met in the pub and hotel were warm, friendly and helpful people. The hotel was clean and had good facilities. There was plenty of parking and it was easy to find. The food in the pub was very good.

The room had an intersecting door to the next room. As I had been given two keys, I assumed one key must be for the intersecting door. I put the key in the intersecting door and unlocked it but didn't open it as I could hear people in the adjacent room. As a solo female traveller, I felt unsafe. The light from the next room was on most of the night and visible under my door. In the morning I unlocked the door and opened it and found that it had been boarded between the rooms so no-one could have entered. I realise I could have checked it during the night, but I was unsure whether I would disturb the other guests. I feel this could have been made clear when I went into the room- e.g a notice on the desk or info when I collected the key.

On the first day I had the Eggs Benedict which was very good. Dinner was also very good on both nights. I liked the parking and the staff were friendly.

Breakfast on Day 2 was poor. American pancakes that were obviously made some time in the past and kept under a heat lamp which made them hard and inedible. I would have liked any other type of coffee to be available Eg Cappucino. The room I was in was on the ground floor and could really have benefitted from being aired out. There was a rather stale smell that resolved on Day 2 after I was able to open the windows and get some fresh air in.

As soon as we walked in the staff were so lovely they were very polite and efficient they couldn't do enough for you they are a fabulous team Lauren was Amazing through out our stay we came to surprise friends who we hadn't seen in a long time and Lauren was great organising our tables for food so we could sit together as our friends had already booked and didn't know we were coming. Bar staff and table service was outstanding Food was delicious and a very good choice you should be proud of such a great team thank you and we will definitely be returning 😀

Location is indeed a great one, not far from M56 and down the road from Warrington. The rooms were of a good standard, if abit in need of a bathroom paint touch up. Original room had an issue with the TV, which instigated a room change, all done within 20 minutes. The Sunday roast available was well cooked, fresh meat and vegetables. Breakfast was also included in the price, well cooked and quickly served. Staff were friendly and helpful throughout the stay. Definitely would stay there again. A Holt's Brewery pub, real ale and as a CAMRA member much appreciated with draft ale like Two Hoots.

The bathrooms in both rooms a a bit tired, needing a touch of paint and TLC. Otherwise, all good.

The best bit was that the staff were fantastic, Catherine, Michael, Lauren, Derek and Alys all contributed to making it a lovely stay. We had a great time, partly due to the friendly banter. Although it's pub chain fare, the food was varied and cooked well. Although we only booked it as somewhere to meet up between our houses, we're all now hoping to go back. Practically, the rooms were large, and there was a big car park. It was close to the M56 junction so easy to reach, and some nice villages and a park very close.

Due to the proximity to the M56 and the A49, it was a little noisy in the rooms.

The warm reception and friendliness of the staff. The room was clean, warm and had everything I needed.

Not that it really mattered but I was surprised that there was no housekeeping - I was later told it was because I was only staying two nights. There is a note in the room about hanging up towels if I didn't need them changed - a note about making my own bed (hardly an effort) would have been courteous. I found the menu rather obscure but ordered the stake and ale pie. Unfortunately, I couldn't cut through the pastry :(

We was welcomed by a lovely lady who was very helpful. The hotel room was comfortable but smelled slightly foisty the bed was very comfortable - the bath had a couple of hairs in it but otherwise was clean. Both the room and bathroom could do with a freshen up. There was no key chain on the door but you could not open the door from the other side unless you had a key but I felt slightly unsafe. The host holding the quiz and bingo was very friendly. The music in the bar both on the night and at breakfast was spot on with some superb music. Monday night is quiz night and bingo a fantastic night was had. Breakfast was ordered and came freshly cooked and was very nice, fruit juice and cereal was also available with tea or coffee. We would definitely stay here again

No safety chain felt a little unsafe and a couple of hairs in the bath

I had stayed there before when it was a Premier Inn so knew the what, where and when's before arriving and it matched my expectations. I ate in the Cat and Lion both nights and the food was good however the young staff excelled in customer care. They were polite and friendly and very attentive. Plenty free car parking in the front and rear of the hotel and the room was clean and tidy.

Well there wasnt anything sprung to mind but now that I think about it I did find the WIFI signal in the room very poor and constantly verging onto no signal. Not a major problem if you watch television or read a book but for someone who depends on a strong WIFI signal well perhaps you need ask before booking??

Having stayed here before 12 months ago I was happy to book here again. I was visiting two locations and the hotel fell conveniently roughly between the two. It is easy to get to from the M6/M56 motorways. The rooms are quite large so don't feel cramped. The hotel is set back from any roads so no noticeable traffic noise. I learned that this was formerly a Premiere Inn until (I believe) late 2022 so the rooms are pretty much to that kind of spec.

Check in is now in the pub itself rather than the hotel reception area which took me a little bit out of my comfort zone. Not a show stopper though!
