What guests think
At Drayton Manor Hotel, guests consistently praise the friendly, welcoming staff and family-friendly setting next to the theme park, while feedback on rooms and dining varies between clean, comfortable stays and dated decor or inconsistent restaurant quality.
Many note clean, spacious rooms, but some report hard pillows, uncomfortable sofa beds, thin walls, and occasional maintenance problems. Breakfast is often good, yet evening meals can be pricey, limited, or slow to arrive, and service quality varies by team. Parking usually carries an extra charge, and the location is excellent for the park with on-site play areas and mini golf. Overall, expect a park-focused stay with variable room comfort and dining.

We stayed on the ground floor room 016 and loved the cleanliness & child friendly & easily accessible areas like restaurant, playground, mini golf, kids disco. The dinner and breakfast were tasty and the staff friendly and helpful, mostly run by very young and polite people who would immediately check with manager if any problems or help needed. Great free internet everywhere on hotel premises. Will re-visit again. Thanks *****

Amazing hotel! The service from ALL members of staff received was above and beyond. Pre check in was a breeze before heading to the park for the day. You have your own hotel entrance to the park about a 3 min walk away so quicker access. You are a guest untill you drive away so even after check out you can still use the hotel facilities like the play area or the crazy golf! The Al A Carte food was delicious and the portion sizes were great. The prices were ok too you'd expect higher for a theme park hotel. Kids main and desert was less than £10. We are already discussing our next trip.

It's been great Comfortable enough Not overly expensive Came the week before Christmas so Christmas activities on, which my 3 year old loved! We're vegan and they accommodated for us at breakfast All the staff have been super lovely. For us/the price, so much easier than coming to Thomasland last year We'd stay here again Do have to pay for car parking (we paid £7 for both nights) which isn't obvious.

This hotel is perfect for young families with children. I loved the patio area where the kids can run around and play and the adults can sit and lounge and watch the children.

Lovely stay at drayton manor hotel. The room was clean and reasonably sized. The thomas theme in the hotel was a hit with our toddler (we didnt get a themed room as the price was ridiculous) but the standard rooms were very reasonable with expedia. Staff friendly. Theme park 2 min walk. Would stay here again

Beds comfortable and rooms well equipped. Peaceful setting and we loved the woodland play areas out the back.

Paid over £200 for a shortly overnight stay and we were disappointed with the standard of room and facilities. Furniture and fixtures in the room were tired and in need of refurbishment and the dressing table area top still had dust on it! At over £200 I would expect better than this. £100-£120 would have been a reasonable price. I wouldn't recommend staying here based on our experience.

As soon as we arrived we were charged £7 for parking; would expect free parking in a resort like this. Rooms are well appointed but run down and the standard of cleaning is not great, bathroom and carpets in particular need a deep clean- hairs in the bath, dirty shower seals, corners of room not clean. Beds are big but mattress is very hard. Breakfast choice is good but poor quality, pastries and pancakes were hard and definitely not fresh. Staff are very nice and helpful. Sadly would not return.

Overall our stay was good. As with most hotels, unless their wet rooms, for disabled visitors, are newly installed, we found the grab rails are quite dirty and dusty. We have stayed in this room before where I mentioned a trip hazard in the room where there is a bulge in the carpet. Quite important when someone is disabled, sadly it’s still the same ☹️ but, you could not fault the staff, very kind and attentive.

Room was ideal base for exploring Drayton Manor (in particular Thomas Land). Basic but all what we needed. Bath over shower, kettle with all refreshments, fridge, hairdryer, iron & ironing board, safe - all included. Sofa bed was quite uncomfortable so our toddler made room in our double bed! Great view of some of the rides in the park which added to the excitement! (Room 232) Significantly cheaper than own website, but be aware car park is around £16 for 2 nights & this needs to be paid on check in. Could have upgraded to a Thomas themed room for additional £50 a night. Enjoyed exploring the trains on each of the levels of the hotel & the garden outside was full of conkers. Hotel restaurant was ok… went to Harvester nearby on 2nd night for a much bette meal (only 10mins drive away & right next door to McDonalds!) No earlier entry to hotel guests to park so no real perks of staying on site.

Soooooooo noisy - you can hear the people in the rooms next door talking - not because they’re being excessively loud but because the walls are literally paper thin. The staff are friendly and helpful. The sofa bed should not be used as a bed……. If you didn’t have a bad back before you slept on it, you certainly will once you have slept on it…….. Breakfast was very nice.

Friendly & Efficient staff, particularly the restaurant team who were faultless both at breakfast and dinner service. Food was better than we had expected. The only negative for us was the very uncomfortable mattress in the double executive room, we stayed the night before a business meeting and could have done with a good nights sleep but this evaded us. We may have just been unlucky with the particular room as everything else was of very high standard.

We stayed at the hotel due to a local wedding. Very helpful front desk staff who let us check-in early as the room was ready in between the ceremony and reception. Nice room, only complaints were that the pillows were very firm and uncomfortable (we woke up with aching necks), the thermostat we set to 22 degrees before sleeping and at some point during the night it ended up at 24 which was way too warm! Finally the blackout blind didn't cover the whole window which usually wouldn't be a problem but the slither of morning sun was reflected right in our faces so woke us up very early. We booked a room for 2 double beds and our room was only 1 double bed so I would recommend double-checking your room booking with them before staying.

Because it's part of an amusement park it appeared to be mostly families, plenty of children being children, noisy and running around. The hotel itself is ok, the staff were great, bed was comfortable. Room turned out to be a disabled room which i was informed was my fault, lol, not reading the booking correctly. When i booked a single room i was only given one option so didn't really read it all, i just booked it. The bathroom was a wet room with the toilet next to the shower. After a shower the toilet was flooded so it was a case of paddling to use the toilet. I also thought the priced in the bar and restaurant were expensive. Being a solo traveller would probably look at other options next time.

I stay in a lot of hotels and very seldom write reviews but this place was so poor I had to. It is soulless and dire. The rooms are dated and shabby and the staff are absent and unhelpful. My shower would only generate boiling water. When I explained this to the receptionist at checkout I was treated like an imbecile who did not know how to operate the shower when in fact I did, it was just broken. Like lots of this place

Checking in was a breeze and very helpful and cheery staff when arriving. Minor issue with the room when arrived, however it was sorted by the desk staff and a happy resolution was found. Accomodation wise after that was spot on. Really have to say the staff members we dealt with were exceptionally good and a credit to the hotel.

Restaurant: Day1: very good service from the waiters. They all where looking proactivly if we wanted some additional drinks ore remove the plates. Day2: complete opositte. We had to call the waiter to remove the plates as they did not do anything for 30min. They took orders from the table next to us and left us sitting with empty plates in front of us with emty glasses. So service level depents on the team. Some are great "5Star" and some had some room for improvement.

I have stayed lots of times for business over the last year as its a lovely hotel with air conditioned rooms for a very reasonable price. I took my family last night for the first time last night as its unfair i have been to drayton manor and my children haven’t (the kids words not mine). Me and my wife have 4 children making hotel stays difficult, i thought i had got adjoining rooms when booking and after a phone call last week to check this was arranged, i was told there was none available and since i booked through a third party there wasn’t any available, bit disappointed we went to the theme park and decided to have 2 children each in our separate rooms! While checking in i told this to a lovely gentleman man on reception who quickly gave me another option they would upgrade one of our rooms complimentary so we could have a adjoining room and finish our day at the park together as a family at the hotel. 1 million % i will be stay there again both for family and for work purposes.

Check in staff were very friendly and efficient. Room was comfortable. However the hotel is fairly isolated with no restaurant alternatives within walking distance. Service in the restaurant and bar was extremely slow. Cannot report on quality of food as gave up after standing in a queue for 15 minutes, with multiple other guests, without any staff member available to seat guests.

Great for ease of access to Drayton Manor Park. Friendly check in staff and very welcoming. Evening meal in restaurant was ok. Food was of a good standard but time to serve was not. Waited 30 minutes for 2 ice creams to find they hadn’t gone through the system. Staff very apologetic and knocked dessert and a bit extra off bill. Would definitely recommend stay there, maybe eat in bar area same menu as restaurant but more relaxed which we did on second night. Room comfortable and an adequate double sofa bed for my 3 year old granddaughter.

Amazing hotel! The service from ALL members of staff received was above and beyond. Pre check in was a breeze before heading to the park for the day. You have your own hotel entrance to the park about a 3 min walk away so quicker access. You are a guest untill you drive away so even after check out you can still use the hotel facilities like the play area or the crazy golf! The Al A Carte food was delicious and the portion sizes were great. The prices were ok too you'd expect higher for a theme park hotel. Kids main and desert was less than £10. We are already discussing our next trip.

Lovely stay at drayton manor hotel. The room was clean and reasonably sized. The thomas theme in the hotel was a hit with our toddler (we didnt get a themed room as the price was ridiculous) but the standard rooms were very reasonable with expedia. Staff friendly. Theme park 2 min walk. Would stay here again

Nice hotel just a few minutes walk from Drayton Manor Theme Park. Easy access by car but had trouble with availability of taxis on a Thursday evening from Tamworth station (took an Uber but cost £16 for the less than 10min journey). Check-in was quick and friendly. The rooms were spacious and clean. The hotel has lots of nods to Thomas the Tank Engine which is great for kids (and big kids alike!). Breakfast had a good range of time available to book between. The range of food was good and food was nice. A range of veggie, vegan and other allergy friendly options are available on request. There is a free mini golf course open during daylight hours for hotel guests to enjoy, located just a short walk from reception (balls and putters available at the desk). Checkout was unfortunately slow given the influx of people leaving to visit the park and wanting to use the complimentary locked luggage storage room at reception. Overall the hotel facilities are good and we would highly recommend a stay if visiting the park. The only rooms available when we booked were accessible (which we did not require), however this was not a problem. Be aware that the bathroom sinks in these rooms are extremely small and low.

Now charging £7 per night parking, up from £6 last week, restaurant is still awful, ridiculously expensive for tiny portions, beds and pillows are low quality. which is a shame, the rooms are quite nice and some lovely grounds but you have to leave to eat somewhere else.

Restaurant: Day1: very good service from the waiters. They all where looking proactivly if we wanted some additional drinks ore remove the plates. Day2: complete opositte. We had to call the waiter to remove the plates as they did not do anything for 30min. They took orders from the table next to us and left us sitting with empty plates in front of us with emty glasses. So service level depents on the team. Some are great "5Star" and some had some room for improvement.

We had a wonderful stay. The staff were extremely kind, friendly, and helpful from the moment we arrived. Check-in was very smooth and easy, which made us feel welcome straight away, The hotel was great for families with children. They organised evening activities for kids, and my three children absolutely loved them. It made our stay even more enjoyable. I would especially like to thank a gentleman at the reception desk who was exceptionally kind, welcoming, and helpful throughout our stay. He went above and beyond to assist us whenever we needed anything, and his outstanding customer service made a real difference to our experience. Thank you to all the staff for making our stay so pleasant. We would happily stay here again and highly recommend it to other families. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
