Wards Hotel Reviews

The room is clean and tidy, the breakfast is rich, and the service attitude is very good.

Watch Four in a Bed! Says it all! I would never stay there - ever! Were game playing against the other competitors yet their hotel is a real mess!

The hotel is easy to find and has a decent sized car park at the rear of the building. The outside looks tatty and the adverts/awards in the windows are all dated. We checked in with no problems and the guy was very helpful although he wasn't based on site and closed reception as soon as we had our keys. This was unfortunate as once we got to the room we realised we didn't have the wifi code. The hotel number was permanently engaged and there was no sign of anyone on the ground floor. The room was clean, reasonably modern, spacious and had a desk for working. There was no internal lock or bolt on the door which was frustrating and there was also no pole to adjust the venetian blinds to close them, which meant we had daylight in the room at 4AM. On the plus side, we were on the second floor so could leave the windows open to get some cool night air in. Overall, a mixed stay at a reasonable price.

Quiet, clean and good location. We were very kindly welcomed. I understand that the hotel was taken over short time ago. It will take some time and effort to bring it up to a more modern standard, but neverrheless we had a good stay there. I hope we can return again!

Sunday lunch was fresh, tasty and amazing gravy. Great portion sizes and friendly staff. Comfortable, clean dining and bar area. Its a winner at £15 per head. Also has a car park. Will definitely return. Also have 2-3 course menu for Fri/Sat which looks very reasonable.

Have visited this hotel before, knowing how comfortable we were we booked another visit. Our stay was enjoyable, the meal was good and the pleasant drink in the bar made our visit. Will return again, probably in the new year, when the weather is warmer

The food is really outstanding! Every meal we had was full of flavor and cooked to perfection. Hands down, some of the most delicious food they have served lately! They utilize only the freshest ingredients and ensure that each dish is properly prepared. I am still fantasizing about my lunch at "Wards" Each mouthful was delicious, and the presentation just blew me away. The staff went above and beyond to make the dining experience memorable. They were attentive without being intrusive.

This has to have been the worst and dirtiest hotel I have ever stayed in. Rooms not cleaned, with no apologies. Beer lines in the bar not cleaned and staff selling cloudy beer. Staff untrained in all aspects of hotel hygiene. Managerial Father and Son operation with no idea of running a hotel.

After reading the reviews this was a really disappointing experience. Our double room was small and cramped (comfortable bed though) - the en suite was laughable - a small shower cabin, small sink and toilet separated from the bed by a sliding door. The meal we had in the evening was just about ok. The only plus point was the owner, who was friendly (from Mauritius) and who arranged for us to have some fresh fruit for our breakfast. We will not go back

I had my wedding here and I can honestly say that everyone and everything was amazing, they went above and beyond, the food was out of this world and catered for everyone's needs. Nothing was too much trouble. I have seen quite a few people put this hotel down but if your expecting a 5 star hotel then go stay in 1, this is a family run business, the building is old so yes some things do need abit of tlc but it is still an amazing place. Thank you so much

How bad can a place be? We booked for two nights and stayed for two minutes. When we booked we were advised that payment was on arrival but straight away after we booked, our credit card number was used to take full payment. No receipt was issued, we only knew because we saw the bank statement. On arrival the car park was scruffy, with rubbish piled in the corners. We advanced towards the main entrance through an archway so covered with climbing plant we had to tear some away so we didn’t trip over. At the front door were a dead plant in a rusty hanging basket and an elderly Christmas tree. The door, which was locked, had chipped paint and sections missing altogether. After rattling the door it was opened and we were shown into the bar area where a “colleague “ checked us in. We were given a key but no information at all about the hotel. We had to ask where our room was. On arriving upstairs through a dingy corridor we opened the door to the delights of our bedroom. A bed with scratches and carving on the base, blinds hanging at a jaunty angle and windows that did not fasten properly. We left but there was no one in the hotel even to take back our key. Do not believe the good reviews for this hotel. They are either sent by friends of the owner or by people who’s standards and expectations are extremely low

Watch four in a bed and you wouldn’t go near there if it was the last place on earth. Vile couple who own it dishonest and cheats !!!! Give it a wide berth these people tried to sabotage the other contestants in order to win shameful pair they don’t deserve anyone to come to their hotel to line their pockets.

Dusty room & sheets had marks so we lay on duvet when we complained we were dismissed and they said the bedding is high quality but it had obviously not been changed yuk would not return to this establishment. Also the flooring was not clean as my white socks were very dirty! When we first entered the room we were pleased with what we saw but cleanliness is important to us.

Shocking hotel do not go, dirty rooms and the owners are so rude. Dusty everywhere and set of my allergies, management didnt want to know and didn’t offer to clean our room again so we just left and found a better hotel. Do not stay there, horrible place and people
