Stayed here as was at a function at the hotel itself. No issues. For price, room was spacious and very clean. Food was good and service very high. No complaints.

stayed here 4-5 times and love this hotel - just stayed for two nights.
two rooms reserved on their winter deal. Nice spacious surroundings
with an ambience befitting a 4 star Hotel.
Reception staff not that friendly on check in. Had Phoned ahead and
asked for a pitch view room but it wasn't even mentioned at check in.
We got the standard rooms which are nice anyway. The leisure suite is
very relaxing with a good pool, steam and sauna.
The breakfast is super with lots of choice and very pleasant staff.
The bar is expensive as is the restaurant, particularly compared to the nearby
Harvester. Many other restaurants are found at the adjacent retail park,
inclu; Nando's -Chiquito's - Pizza Hut etc.
We did eat in the India Gate which is about
5 mins drive away and the Harvester which is 3 mins walk. Both were excellent.

We stayed here as we were at a wedding in Bolton and it would be cheaper than getting a taxi back.
The Good
- Excellent Value - £29 per room
- Free WiFi
- Very Good breakfast for only £7
- Free Use of gym and pool
- Good Location, near shops, cinema and places to eat
- Very good standard of rooms
- Plenty of free parking (it was a non match day)
Not so Good
- Nothing so much, just book in advance, we did and paid £29 per room, one of our party called on the day and paid £59 and one turned up at 1a.m and paid £109!

We chose the De Vere White for a weekend break away to relax. It was a great choice.
Very easy to find just of the motorway, and the Middlebrook behind was ideal for shopping & eating out.
The room was nicely decorated and had everything we needed, altough for me the pillows were too hard, All the staff we met were very friendly, especially the staff at the bar on the 1st floor.
We had breakfast on the Sunday which was very nice but wish we had been made aware of the cost beforehand as although it was nice I think £15 was a little pricey, maybe we should have asked the cost 1st.
All in all we would definately go back for another weekend/night away, but would probably pass on the breakfast and go round to Mcd's or Asda.

arrived sunday - checking in no problem even when we requested room change as original very close to lift staff were polite and helpful
room and bed very comfortable and pleasantly surprised to have sky sports on tv (other de vere hotels we have stayed in only had the basic channels)
very convenient for shopping park and with plenty of restaurants etc in easy reach
only rated as average due to the breakfast (would have been very good) - the food itself was good and the service excellent (staff a credit to hotel) - however when we checked out we were shocked to be charged £21 for the 2 breakfasts which is much higher than other de veres (one is £10 for 2 people) and the comments of other recent guests on this website - own fault as we should have asked but on the otherhand could a tariff not be made available ?
will stay at this hotel again but most certainly will not be eating breakfast

This was supposed to be a nice suprise for my boyfriends birthday. Treating him to the football match and a night away. The thought of staying in a football stadium was something new expecting the place to be out standing i was very disappointed paying £99 for a room to realise it was very much the same standard as a £60 travel lodge. Not worth the price we had a great meal in the reflections restaurant in a booth over looking the footy pitch. The bar was a little shabby with duck taped booths maybe needs a referb? staff where friendly but on arrival the card machines where down. I am very disappointed and annoyed to find on our arrival home we have been over charged. We have been charged for 2 breakfasts in which we didnt request or even eat.
I would not stay at this hotel again and i wouldnt reccomend anyone to stay there
Sorry

I like the de Vere Whites hotel; I like it's location, the feel of the hotel, the roomy break out space you've got to sit and unwind or work. The people are pleasant and helpful and it's in a good location if you're visiting friends or family in Bolton or working in the Greater Manchester area - I'm doing a mixture of both, so this place suits me fine.
Ok yes, so the room is very dated - no flat screen tv or neutral colours here, just a chunky tv that's seen better days and bright blue furniture that actually hurts the eyes if you look at it too long - in fact it's time this hotel had an internal makeover to stop it really falling behind it's rivals.. but all this could be forgiven - until, that is, I felt peckish and picked up the room service menu..
Deep Fried Onion RIngs (sweet chilli sauce) - £3.50
Chips (Bernaise sauce) - £3.95
Pork Crackling (apple sauce) - £4.25
I'm told the pork crackling is a bowl of (just) pork crackling served with apple sauce!
8oz Homemade Verve Burger (cheese & chips) - £11.50
Sandwiches come at a price of £5.95 with Paninis starting at £6.95 to £8.50 and Wraps ranging from £4.95 (veggie option) to £9.50.
Now I don't mind paying (over the odds) for hotel food but I'm really struggling to bring myself to order at these prices; I've paid less at a 5-star hotel (Radisson Manchester)! By the time you've grabbed a drink and paid for the tray charge (£3) then you're talking the best part of £20 for a quick sandwich, chips and a drink!
I'm sorry but I think the de Vere needs to re-think it's food prices. Yes I can eat in the bar but I don't want to, I just want to relax in my tv with a quick bite and trashy tv.. Looks like the diet's starting tonight then!
