Room ok nothing special but ok for a couple of nights. Not a high end hotel but mid range but expensive for the area. Manchester hilton would be better and only 15mins away. Biggest issue fire alarm at 7am Sunday morning. No apology, no information, no comment on checkout, no gesture. Never go back!

Hotel is built into the football stadium. Rooms were reasonable size, but cold. Radiator was hidden behind the already closed curtains. No flannels in the bathroom. Restaurant was very poor. Meat wasn't cooked through and the cut was the toughest I've ever encountered - had to send it back. Service was patchy and not very good. Wine choice also poor.
Overall, not a place to stay if you can avoid it.

I recently had the pleasure of staying here overnight for an anniversary surprise and I have nothing but good words for my experience, from checking in to room service to leaving in the morning, every interaction I had with members of staff certainly would explain the 4 star rating, I believe the chap on the front desk was called Andy, he went above an beyond to make sure I was well informed and of any further services I may require. My only criticism would be the food/drinks menu is what I believe to be mega expensive for what you get but maybe that says more about my choice of restaurants than this hotel. Overall I would definitely go back.

I visited Bolton Whites Hotel this week on business, reception were efficient, quick and friendly.
Hotel room was clean and comfortable. I got a great night’s sleep.
I ate in the restaurant with a colleague and we were very impressed. The staff were professional and attentive. The food was excellent; apparently it is a new menu. I had the chicken liver parfait; my colleague had the cheese soufflé, which looked fantastic. For main course I had the lamb and my colleague had duck. Both too full for dessert we shared a cheese slate, plenty for two. I feel it was great value, 2 courses for £20 and 3 for £25.
There was a good choice at breakfast and the staff again were professional, nothing was too much trouble.
A very pleasant stay and I look forward to the next one.

The Whites Hotel is part of the Macron Stadium (Formerly Reebok Stadium) home of the Bolton Wanderers football team in the north west of England.
Some of the rooms overlook the football field from high above.
I found the staff to be friendly and welcoming, the rooms spacious and comfortable and breakfast excellent. Check out was simple and straight forward, takes no time at all.
Almost next door to the hotel is a shopping mall
Would not hesitate to recommend this hotel.
I was attending a function at the Platinum Room next door to the hotel and also part of the stadium building so a good choice from that point of view also

Had an amazing night at the Macron Stadium at the weekend, the staff were friendly and helpful nothing was too much trouble. The food, well what can I say, I have been converted to eating turkey!! the food was absolutely delicious by far the best I have eaten in a long time. From start to finish presentation was at its best and the chocolate brownie was to die for. I shall definitely be returning for another visiting to sample this amazing food.
I would highly recommend this venue and sample the food you won't be disappointed.

Stayed here for 3 nights whilst attending a Sunday Christening but took in the Saturday football match as well with lunch in the Bolton Wanderers hospitality suite.
We had upgraded to a room with french windows overlooking the pitch, which is well worth the extra money. Watching the stadium start to fill up on the Saturday is interesting, especially when a funeral party scattered a deceased fan's ashes by the side of the pitch after a short ceremony. the only thing forgot to ask is why the french windows are locked shut without a key - I can see why on a match day, but, all the time? also be aware that heavy lights shine on the pitch 24 hours a day after the match to make the grass grow. the curtains are thick, though.
Comfortable large room and pleasant once we worked out why it was blowing out cold air all the time. Bathroom not huge, but all clean and OK. Huge public areas in the hotel and so much car parking outside. There seem to be plenty of chain restaurants in the complexes nearby and a (24 hour?) Tesco just up the road.
The wrong newspapers came on the Saturday - surely this is a basic to get right - I saw her write down the correct ones when we arrived.
Breakfast was OK, nothing special except lovely Bury black sausage - my favourite. We didn't have dinner but reasonable room service snacks on Saturday night came with a sting in the tale : I couldn't believe that a £3 charge was slapped on for delivery when it is not mentioned on the menu (after close examination). Its not the money, its the principle.
I went down to the bar/cafe area for a snack on the Sunday night to read my book in peace away from my wife watching Strictly/X Factor/I'm a Celebrity on TV and ordered a caesar salad. Very cold down there on the mezzanine floor; the waiter told me the heating was full on - he said 33 degrees but that's nonsense - then "maybe its the doors opening downstairs" but the air con was blowing cold everywhere you tried to sit. The caesar salad was fine, but it was supposed to be a chicken caesar and there were no croutons either. Due to the cold, these omissions didn't permeate my brain (it was an enthralling book) until, after I had finished, the waiter then came rushing up, told me about the missing items, and apologised. I was offered, and took, a free glass of wine.
So, good in parts, but needs to get its act together more.
I'm not a Bolton fan so unless my nephew has any more children to Christen, doubt if we will be coming back.

In December 2014, ste b said about Bolton Stadium Hotel
Attended a works Christmas party here , Rooms okay , bar inside the hotel was fairly decent but the function was outside and 300 yards walk away in the rain which isn't ideal at these rates.The Food , oh the dreadful food - there is mention of Michelin stars in the blurb about the Heathcote Catering , well , I would rather eat the tyres than the muck presented to us - Goosnargh turkey was rolled Turkey , grey coloured and odd-smelling , the spuds were piped ( two kinds , one had been shown the oven for 60 seconds) one carrot and some sprout shavings. Needless to say I didn't eat any of it and had to walk to the supermarket (more un-jacketed rain) for a pork pie and some crisps.
Breakfast back inside the hotel proper was half decent apart from the lack of service and the kitchen staff using the conveyor-toaster in the dining room for (presumably) the room service trays (don't you have more than one toaster?annoying to wait 10 mins for toast) even then it only worked on one side, taking twice the time and belching out smoke when people put bread through twice but didn't turn it over.
All in all not a great experience , and a really poor dining one at that.
