I had a mixed experience at the Holmfield Hotel. While the reception staff were genuinely helpful and the food in the restaurant was excellent, the hotel itself is showing signs of age, and I encountered some issues with the hot water in the shower. Overall, the positive aspects of cleanliness and attentive service made up for the few concerns I had during my stay.

I had a great experience at this hotel nestled in a lovely wooded area, well away from the hustle and bustle. The rooms were basic but clean and comfortable, making it a pleasant place to stay. The warm reception and friendly staff added to the experience, although the dining was a bit chaotic during breakfast times. Overall, this hotel offers good value for money, but be aware of potential noise from nearby events.

I had a decent stay at the hotel with a clean and tidy atmosphere, but it clearly needs some updates. The staff were very helpful, and the dining experience was exceptional, with great food and attentive service. However, I faced issues with the hot water during showers, and the ambiance in the parking area could be improved for added safety. Despite a few drawbacks, I would consider staying again because of the overall positive experience.
