Reviews and Ratings

Feedback about Drayton Manor Hotel from previous guests about their experience.
Review summary
Based on recent reviews
Powered by AI
Drayton Manor Hotel is often praised for its spacious rooms, especially the themed options like the Thomas rooms, which come equipped with smart TVs, even within the bunk beds. Guests frequently highlight the convenience of being a short walk from the Drayton Manor theme park entrance, with some mentioning early access at 10 am. The food receives generally positive remarks, and there are gluten-free options; however, a few guests have noted that the adult menu could offer more vegetable choices to balance out the plentiful chips. The hotel grounds also provide a lovely play area for children, making it a hit with families.

i didn't appreciate being unable to check in until 3 pm even though the park opened earlier. i had medication needing refrigeration and had to store it in the restaurant fridge. the hotel room was not what i expected from a 4-star hotel (i think the rating is exaggerated). cobwebs and dust were present, towels had brown stains, and there were toys and wrappers under the bed.
