Hellidon Lakes Hotel

The room was big clean and comfort. The entrance and areas were all welcoming Lovely surroundings

The bedroom was far too hot. Air con did. It work and the fan proceeds nothing to reduce the heat. There was a French door In the room but was locked and unable to Open which would have helped reduce the heat slightly. Air conditioning was working in other parts of the hotel so the rooms should have been sorted or at least an apology or offer of water when checking in

Good selection for breakfast.

Nothing of note.

Clean comfortable room warm friendly professional staff. Good selection of food at breakfast

Shower over bath adeqaute but not easy to use. Most hotels I have stayed in have walk in showers with up to date controls.

Pleasant hotel. Great for parking. Room was a good size and easily accessible via lifts or stairs. The bar area was comfortable (air con). We didn't eat but others in our group tried the bar menu for Burger and Pizza and these were reasonably priced, ample portions and good quality. One of our group is a golfer who commented that the course was excellent. We didn't try any of the other facilities as we were attending a wedding and didn't get the opportunity so I can't comment on those.

Other than the Bar area there is no air conditioning. The rooms and corridors were literally stifling. I'd checked the day before and discovered the lack of air con so we took our large fan from home which helped slightly. The hotel did provide a fan but this was as useful as an asthmatic trout. You get air con at budget hotels like Premier Inn and Travelodge so the lack of this facility during hot weather was frustrating. I had breakfast on day one and this was below average buffet fayre. Fried egg came out woefully overcooked. Didn't bother on day two.
