I was part of a coach tour of over 40 people. They cope with us and another coach load by providing a rather basic buffet dinner. Room was good, and lift welcome. Comfortable hotel, and recommended. Coach driver missed the entrance, so it could be better signed.

Stayed 1 night as a birthday treat. Very friendly lady on reception checked me in and instantly made me feel welcome.
My room was on the 1st floor overlooking the main road at the front. Lovely big room that felt spacious. It was quite warm but being able to open the window helped a bit. Comfy bed, tea making facilities and a nice big bathroom ensured I had everything I needed.
I used the pool/spa facilities and really enjoyed them, again the staff there were very friendly and showed me how to use he lockers and where everything was. It was very relaxing and chilled out. I didn’t use the bar or restaurant but breakfast the next day was great.
As the weather was unseasonably nice, it was nice to make use of the outside space and terrace.
I’d definitely consider staying here again for a treat (I live locally)

We stayed for 9 nights, hotel is a perfect location for transportation links such as Horwich Parkway and Blackrod Railway stations as well as motorways.
Very friendly staff, food and drink reasonably priced and Irene in the sports bar was a dream! What a lovely lovely lady! She made our stay! So friendly and helpful and nothing was too much trouble, an absolute asset to the hotel!
As well as lovely food at the hotel there are a number of options within easy reach, The Cherry Tree (very nice although pricier than others) The Brinsop (closed Monday’s and Tuesdays) and The Railway Pub.
All in all an excellent stay and would return

Arrived 745am but allowed us into the room for a £20 surcharge. Good value. We were staying 2 nights and we knew that on the morning of our departure it would be too early for breakfast. They kindly allowed us to have a breakfast on the day of check in instead . The boy on reception was definately on the "right bus"

We stayed here last weekend and our room was directly above the smoking area so the smell from the cigarettes was at times overpowering,also there was a wedding party going on and nobody bothered to intercept when two guests stood on the patio swearing and shouting at each other for over 30 minutes. The option was to close the windows in a very hot room with no air conditioning. Overall not a very comfortable stay.

This was not a good experience. Booked 2 rooms on a 2 night with dinner package. Arrived on first night to find only 1 room was showing and only one single room was available. This was after numerous emails and telephone calls to confirm booking and arrangements. I showed the receptionist (Ashley) my booking for 2 double rooms close together. One should be accessible room for my elderly parents. Manager called and was initially offered a rain damaged room that manager deemed fit. I stood my ground for an accessible room as booked. I was then offered one with manager authorisation. Rooms still on different floors and opposite parts of the hotel. Not what we had booked but nothing else was available. I accepted this grudgingly as it was now 10.00pm and we were all tired after a 3 hour drive. Both rooms were poorly maintained (missing selves, stained carpets, poor grouting) and had request towels as well!
Breakfast was a steady affair. All the usual suspects - cereals, fruit, crossiants, juices, help yourself coffee and a selection of hot fayre but no hash browns or potato dish?
Did not use pool or spa.
Dinner went from OK to bad to worse. Ordered food at bar to be told that they had run out of hummus at 8.00pm on a Wednesday night? Ordered starters and mains. They had also run out of Becks Blue and there was no other alternative. The coke draught machine as not working either. The starters came after a short wait. Nice soup and garlic bread. We waited for our mains and waited some more and dishes were not cleared either for 30 minutes. In the end I went to bar and told then our mains had not come. Barmen asked which had not come? I said all of them and he rang kitchen and told me that they would be 'fast-tracked'. I got the feeling they had forgotten about us. They arrived 10 minutes latter. Burger and chip was good. My pasta was warm on the outside and stone cold in the middle. I think it had been microwaved badly. The server noticed that I'd left my pasta and asked if everything was alright. I explained the pasta was cold. He offered to warm it and a free drink. I declined and ordered dessert - sticky pudding which was the best thing we had that night.
Check-out was quick but no real apologies offered for the booking/room issues we had encountered.
Would not recommend unless you are desperate or check booking in advance and get in writing.

Recent reviewers had lambasted this hotel for uncleanliness but we had a spotless twin room (891) with very comfortable mattresses, clean bathroom with shower over bath and washand basin. Usual beverage facilities and plenty of hot water.
This room had a Velux window that opened easily to a view over the countryside at the rear of the hotel.
The weather was atrocious but we had the window open without any water ingress

I've been visiting the georgian house Hotel for many years now either a short stay or lunch time dining but recently decided to become a member at the gym. I've been a member at the gym for almost 4 months now, I have worked my way up to 2 personal training sessions a week with Simon who has helped me loose an incredible amount of weight and step out my comfort zone! All the leisure team staff are really friendly and helpful. The leisure facilities are cleaned very regular. Overall my best experience has been with the leisure team at the mercure georgian house.
