Was Gäste sagen

Im Strawberry Bank Hotel, NEC, heben Reisende das freundliche Personal, das gute Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis und die günstige Lage in der Nähe des NEC und des Flughafens hervor, bemängeln aber veraltete Zimmer, dünne Wände und Lärm, schwankende Heizung und Warmwasserversorgung sowie eine uneinheitliche Sauberkeit und Instandhaltung.

Viele Gäste genießen die Pub, das Restaurant und den großen Biergarten, wobei die Qualität und Verfügbarkeit von Speisen und Frühstück variieren und es gelegentlich zu Verzögerungen oder begrenzten Optionen kommt. WLAN und Mobilfunkempfang sind häufig schwach, und mehrere Gäste waren überrascht von den Parkgebühren bei Buchung über Drittanbieter. Erwarten Sie einen preisgünstigen Aufenthalt ohne Schnickschnack mit freundlichem Service in guter Lage, aber mit einem uneinheitlichen Komfort der Zimmer.

Ausstattung

Die hoteleigene Pub, das Restaurant und der große Biergarten werden häufig gelobt. Es gibt ausreichend Parkplätze, diese werden aber oft bei Buchung über Drittanbieter berechnet; das WLAN ist unzuverlässig und einige Gäste berichteten von Problemen mit dem Warmwasser oder einem schlechten Mobilfunkempfang.

It was ok, but for the week our team was there, they had no hot water in the showers. This was reported and still no hot water. Our company Van had been broken into, and apparently it’s a hot spot for vans. Another set of vans broken into a couple of weeks ago.

The room was clean and comfortable albeit the walls are a wee bit thin. The bar and restaurant area are well maintained and cosy and the food and drink was very nice and not too expensive, breakfast was also enjoyable. The only downside was getting charged for parking which wasn't pre-advertised.

A very convenient hotel for any NEC visit (just 15 mins up the road, and you miss the major road traffic queues). The room was quite spacious, cosy warm on a snowy night and had a recently refurbished bathroom (shower, no bath). The bar is a lively, and filled with locals coming in after work. Book a table at the restaurant if the hotel is full. Would have got a full star review if some of the public area decor did not look so tired - but nothing which actually impacted our stay.

There was ample on site parking. The evening meals in the restaurant were very good although there was a considerable delay in service, probably from being short staffed. However, staff in restaurant were pleasant.Breakfasts were not so good especially if you ate late when the food had gone past its best.

The room was do bad we ended up moving to another hotel. Om arrival the room was freezing and smelled of sewage. It was very dated and didnt look clean, carpet was stained with a build up of dust around the edges. The walls were grubby and has lits of marks on. The sheet on the bed was stained, tbere was no mattress protectors on the mattress. One of the towels had a scab on it which was the final straw! The staff were pleasant and tried to be helpful though, they offered a refund which should arrive after head office have been informed

Stayed here a number of times over the last couple of years but this year it really has gone downhill. Firstly they insist on taking your bank card from you and take a picture of the details before returning it. If you refuse they don’t let you stay. Secondly the room cleanliness has deteriorated. This first room I was giving someone had left present in the toilet (still there after 2 flushes). The second room looked a lot cleaner with hot chocolate and biscuits. Nice touch. I went to the bar and had one drink then back to my room for a hot chocolate. The cup was dirty. The receptionist was lovely and very apologetic stating that the toilet was down to a backflow problem (on the first floor?). The dirty cup was down to the housekeepers time in each room reduced? If the cleanliness of the room is this bad what is the kitchen like I wonder Lastly the WiFi is poor. Used to be ok

Zimmer

Die Zimmer sind im Allgemeinen veraltet und haben dünne Wände; viele berichten von Lärm von Nachbarn, der Bar oder den Fluren, kalten Zimmern mit langsamen Elektroheizungen und unbequemen Matratzen. Einige Zimmer sind geräumig oder kürzlich renoviert und bieten eine schöne Aussicht, aber die Ausstattung kann lückenhaft sein (schwaches WLAN, gelegentliche TV-Probleme, begrenzte Steckdosen oder Föhne).

Check in was ok but a bit slow. Room was tired, shower door broken, no hairdryer in room and no phone in room to check with reception to see if I could borrow a hairdryer. But oh the bed was absolutely shocking. Bedding looked clean, pillows were flat and thin but omg the mattress was just so bad. Rock hard on the edges yet it gave no support in the middle. It was one of the worse beds we have ever slept on

Nice staff , couple issues with room . Zero degrees outside , walking into the room couldn’t have been much warmer . Old style electric radiator that was slow to warm the room and an old fashioned loudly ticking manual timer fitted to it . So essentially the choice became sleep or put up with the cold . Groundfloor rooms suffer with paper thin walls and more importantly , ceilings . Rooms could also do with curtains , feels quite and bleak cold in terms of decor . Positives , comfy bed , good shower , decent wifi , good size TV . Food was good in the pub too .

I liked the shower. Room was a bit dingy and lacking in atmosphere. TV was not working (Room 125). I went to reception who changed the batteries in the remote but the TV still did not work. The ground floor room looked out over the car park but there were no nets so I had to keep the blind down until I was dressed. Mattress was not the most comfortable although it was OK.

We arrived at the strawberry bank on the night of the 5th December. We were catching a plane from the airport the following day. We booked in by the most delightful staff members, both of in good humour, friendly, a lovely welcome. We went to the restaurant and the young lady there was very professional and charming. A good host. The meal was very enjoyable. We needed to be up for the opening of the restaurant to have breakfast the following morning as we had a plane to catch Our room was standard but comfortable clean and everything was there that was needed. However, by surprise, on getting up we found there was no lighting in the bathroom. We managed; (being conscious these things happen in the best of places). On going downstairs there was a woman and a man sitting behind reception. No 'good morning how can I help you?' or anything of the sort from either of them. I told her about it She looked at me with incredulity said that she can't see that this could happen and asked me if I had tried the right switches. The attitude was such that it was sour faced and she was treating me like an idiot as if it was my fault.. No apology no salutation or respect for a customer. There is far more than this and I would like to be contacted. I could not get it all on here.

But of a dump, very uncomfortable bed, unclean bathroom with the glass shower door hanging by a thread. Nobody on reception to help with issues. Breakfast in the morning is very limited if you don’t eat meat but you still get charged £12.95 even though half of the menu isn’t available to you. Very poor Hotel with clueless staff that wonder around with no direction at all. The only decent member of staff was the woman behind the bar in the evening. I would t go there again if they paid me.

Unfortunately, we didn't have the best stay here. The staff were very friendly and accommodating however, there was multiple stains, marks and hairs left in the shower and bathroom as well as the bedroom. The pillows were extremely thin which prevented comfort through the night. The walls are so thin we could hear general conversations from the room next to us including snoring all through the night which again affected our sleep. The food was also a disappointment. We had to send it back after being sick following a few mouthfuls. The staff were understanding and agreed the taste wasn't up to standard. Breakfast and parking wasn't worth the extra money. We were told on the day they would have matched Expedia prices and gave us free parking. This is not advertised on their website and too late once arrived. The building was a good size and had both bar and restaurant area.
