Hotels With Bar in Staffordshire, United Kingdom

Overall, the price is good, very close to the highway, easy to drive, free parking, the hotel is on the 12th floor is a restaurant, things are delicious, the surroundings of the hotel are average, rooms are ok, 8-10 minutes by car Supermarket ALDI, 8-10 minutes there is a Chinese food formerly known as China Garden, now called New Beijing, the price is real, the taste is authentic, there are many Western food next to it. The restaurant is located in the town center. After dinner, you can see the town. It is very beautiful. Breakfast is medium.

First of all, nothing to do with any of the staff, all lovely and very accommodating. It’s short staffed and that’s where most of the problems lie. We stayed here for 2 nights this week as a family Of 4, 2 adults and 2 kids under 3. The room was nice and clean, but when we got there the pull out bed had no bedding at all, we checked in about 9.30pm, so it wasn’t ideal when wanting to get the girls into their beds. Went to phone reception… the phone was broken. I managed to find the hotels reception number online so I called reception, and Laura from there came to the room with bedding and extra towels and even offered to make the bed for me, I said she didn’t have to but she helped me anyway, and she was amazing with our 2 children. Honestly, one of the best customer service experiences I’ve had in a while. The next morning we headed to breakfast… this was a shambles. First of all it was a struggle to get a table, we got ushered into a strange little conference room filled with dirty tables, we sat at the only clean one. Went to get a high chair for our baby… no high chairs. Went to get food, almost everything had run out, no juices or glasses, mugs for tea and coffee. Managed to get a small Plate of food, no cutlery to eat it with. Honestly Shocking. That evening Laura was on reception again and she came over and made a fuss over our children when she seen us, our baby absolutely loved her, she really is a credit to the hotel. I chatted with her and another girl with glasses who’s name I can’t remember, but she was also amazing with the baby, it makes such a difference when going anywhere and the staff are kind to my children, it always makes me want to return. The second morning for breakfast we got a high chair and again we’re put into the strange little room, again all tables dirty and full of plates, a nice girl called Anna cleaned it for us and apologised about the wait for a table. No mugs again, Anna got one for me, managed to get a small amount of juice with our breakfast, until it ran out again. Over all, it’s a staffing issue, the staff there are all amazing and did what they could when they could do it, but there needs to be more staff, it’s the school summer holidays and it seemed the dining room was running on 2/3 staff members.

Travelled up for a charity bike ride. Proximity to park and mosque was key and this suited perfectly. Room was great. Shower powerful. Noise Proof good as we had a baby with us. Cot provided good standard. Breakfast was very good in morning and not too pricey if bought in advance with booking. Only lose points on having to provide confirmation that breakfast was booked due to fault with their booking system.

The hotel is very close to Waterworld stoke on Trent, There is no charge for its own parking lot. It will be convenient to play in the water. Waterworld did not wash for two minutes. The cabinet clerk was polite and sent three fresh cookies to eat. The room is good, the TV is big enough, the disadvantage is that the shower water is too weak, there is no air conditioning in the room but there is a fan. Breakfast is a general English buffet, there are not many choices but enough food, the grain has a separate packaging is more hygienic.

Lovely hotel can't wait go back the stafff wete brilliant politr and the rooms we're lovely and clean and the outside ground s are immaculate and I really look forward to booking again which will be very soon

This was literally a stop over during Covid an essential trip. Staff were pleasant and helpful. Our room upon arrival looked clean and we literally just crashed. However, inthe morning we discovered a pair of dirty socks from previous occupants left on the side cupboard and sachets of sweetener between the sheets and the mattress! Unacceptable at the best of times nevermind during a worldwide pandemic. Reported to staff who apologised and are handling complaint. Staff very apologetic but simply unacceptable.

I was visiting the University on business. From the minute I walked in you could feel the customer service culture was very good and very natural. Every team member from reception to the team that we’re looking after the bar and restaurant. I’m sitting here writing this after my breakfast. Again a really friendly and genuine environment. I felt compelled to write this review. I managed a customer service driven environment for many years and I know the work that goes on behind the scenes to keep what you have worked hard to achieve. Well done to all. I’m glad I joined Bonvoy. I will be back 100%. Have a good day.

The location is a bit distant, but it is closer to where we are going, so I chose this place. There are costa coffee, frankie & benny ”s, McDonald's, we ate here for 3 days. Staff were friendly. Breakfast was similar to other hotels. Cleaner

Enjoyed our stay, in a comfortable and roomy two bed apartment. Very conveniently located for the National Arboretum, that was on our list to visit. The two speed bumps on the approach road were quite severe and resulted in some scrapping noises from under our car, even though we drove over them at the lowest possible speed. We experienced a couple of cleaning issues, which were reported.

Beautiful countryside, simple and elegant

An excellent base for an early train from Crewe station. Friendly staff, superb food and lovely pool . Rooms could do with a refresh - looking a bit dated. Perfectly adequate for our needs though with tea and coffee and the usual iron, hairdryer etc. As it was on the ground floor, you could only open the windows a tiny bit, so it would become very warm in the summer even with the fan that was provided. I do think that air conditioning should be standard in all hotels now. Access to the pool was quite restrictive with specific times but the pool area was lovely although the steam room was out of order. Access to the full spa was at extra cost. The Stables Grill was excellent - food, service and cocktails - couldn’t fault and the breakfast equally as nice. Would definitely stay here again.

We booked a special dinner for a ruby anniversary celebration at the barns. The entire experience from booking to the meal itself was simply beyond 5 star. The entire staff couldn’t do enough for us, it made a special occasion even better. We were all so impressed. Initially the special couple had booked a small family gathering downstairs, but we decided to secretly invite more people and move the celebrations to the private dining room upstairs where we could decorate and make the evening unforgettable. At every point, nothing was too much for the staff. From pre preparation over email to when we got there. The staff were all well prepped and ready for us to help decorate and set the table to how we liked it. The pre ordered food was no bother and even the specific requests were all correct and bang on. The food…wow! Some of the best we’ve all had, all served hot and all came out together, the kitchen staff obviously worked very hard to get all plates out so efficiently. These days, good service is hard to come by in hospitality but this team aren’t good, they are great! It’s so refreshing to see a young work force behave so professionally and act so kindly for such a large table. Thank you to all the team for making our evening a night to remember and so special, we will recommend The Barns to anyone that listens, an absolute delightful and incredible evening. Just wonderful

Not a bed place very quite

Great value for the money with wonderful restaurant

I stayed here during my 2023 John O'Groats to Lands End ride, when I was accompanied by my wife and 13 year old son, who were acting as support crew. The Oak Farm Hotel is a relatively large wedding venue just off the main road.  It is very accessible from the M6 with a spacious and sprawling car park.  We shared an ensuite family room with double and single bed. The bathroom was large and a little dated – unless you like the 90s vibe - with bath, shower and very noisy extractor fan which sounded like the room was about to take off. The staff were very friendly and helpful. A traditional breakfast buffet is available in the bistro with a self-service cooked breakfast and only a few healthier options.  Due to the family aspect of this hotel, we found the dining room  - and indeed our stay - to be a little noisy with young children enjoying their adventure away. Bistro was closed in the evening when we stayed so we cannot comment on dinner. However, the menu looked appetising. We found a McDonalds and other fast food or family friendly outlets within easy driving distance of the hotel. The bike stored was locked away in the board room just off the reception area at the front so it was easily accessible in the morning.   A remote controlled gate secures access to the venue.
