Review of Red House Hotel

I stayed here for 2 nights.

I stayed here for 2 nights.

The room I stayed in, whilst clean, had a weird, stale smell and was a bit spartan. It felt tired and looked in need of redecorating. The bathroom was nice and clean though with plenty of towels and a nice selection of soap and shower gels. There was also decent tea and coffee making facilities in the room.

The hotel has a gym and squash court and a load of snooker tables. The gym was great and I had it all to myself!

The food was, in my opinion, decidedly average. I ordered the battered fish and chips and the fish was greasy and the chips were frozen, not fresh. It was the only meal I had at the hotel and I ate elsewhere after that. I didn t even bother going for the breakfast included with the room cost because I was so disappointed with the quality of the food.

The whole hotel is looking a bit tired and past it s best and could do with a fresh coat of paint and new carpets. I feel that for the cost of the room per night there are more modern alternatives for similar money or less. I had a pleasant enough stay but if I m ever in the area again for work or leisure I think I d look elsewhere.
