“The hotel aims for both family stays and wedding celebrations, a combination that presents some operational challenges, according to reports. Its spa and wellness area, along with proximity to Aintree and Haydock Racecourses, are definite assets. I noted recurring concerns about room maintenance and inconsistent service, which potential guests should consider.”

Restaurant 92 offers proper restaurant food, not typical hotel fare! The beef burger, in particular, was flavorful and served with great chips.

the breakfast selection was AMAZING. staff in the breakfast room were very helpful, a real asset to the team. Blackout curtains made the room DARK, a great help for sleeping.

the summer duvet felt a LITTLE thin, I would have preferred something heavier.
