This Hotel is not cheap, but it is a real treat. We stayed in a family room which was a fab size. You have your own private area each- a double bed and a single (sort of fold down sofa; which was comfy enough), there is a wall dividing both beds which is a nice touch. Often family rooms are just 3 beds squeezed into a small room. This room looked more considered in the way the furniture had been placed. 2 seperate doors to lead to the ensuite. The Hotel itself is large with several bars and places to eat. We were there for a family wedding at a seperate venue, so didn't spend a lot of time in the Hotel. The pool was small but nice, we went in the morning and it was fairly quiet. The restaurant was good, service was a little slow at times. Quality of food was good and there was a good variety. You can sit and look out at the football ground from your table! There is an area you can sit to lounge around on sofas once you've checked out which was nice. There was no rush to head home. It's really close to Bolton train station, you can literally walk from the station in 5-10mins. I'd go back if I ever found the reason to be in the area.

My husband and I stay here a few times a year, as its a nice treat and quite close to home. We have always found the rooms to be lovely, clean and spacious. The leisure facilities are adequate... depending on the time of the day you use them, they can get busy as its only small but still very good. And last but not least the food... WOW... its always delicious... especially the lamb shank! We have told everyone about it :-)
Will be returning :-)

we booked this hotel for £79 for 2 nights B & B, cheaper than most Travelodge or Premier Inns, we have stayed in a few De Vere venues and resorts and always look for a special offer. The hotel is easy to find and just off the motorway, lots of free parking and an easy check inn, receptionist pleasant and friendly, she informed us of breakfast times, location, leisure facilities and everything we needed to know. We asked for a pitch view room, my husband was delighted with this and it was quite a pleasant view with access to the terrace outside. The room was quite small but adequate, complimentary bottles of water, bath robes were a nice touch. The toiletries are a let down, again that horrible green soap was supplied and the purple shower gel, please change this De Vere! Breakfast was very nice, well cooked hot food, a nice selection of fruit and delicious pastries, good service and a pleasant restaurant in which to eat. Across the road from the hotel is a Harvester pub next to the Premier Inn, this seemed popular and had a good selection of food on the menu. Scott's is a bar serving food similar to Wetherspoons, burger,chips and a drink £5.95, ok if you just want a quick bite, 2 meals for £6 and other reasonable priced meals. The pool was clean and warm, the sauna was out of order but the steam room was nice and the spa pool was lovely, the gym was small but had a good selection of equipment. Within walking distance is a retail park, very good shopping, cinema and bowling, the Abacus Cantonese restaurant is very good, clean and good food. Manchester is about 30 minutes drive, the Trafford Centre is easy to find. The hotel is a good base for shopping and we would us it again, we had a very pleasant stay.

My Wife and I stayed here recently whilst spending some time relaxing in Manchester.
We drove from Preston and the hotel couldn't be easier to find. We planned to park up, take the train from Horwich Parkway (3 minutes walk from the hotel, turn right from the main entrance and cross the road in front, it's just down past the Harvester. £3.75 return for an adult, takes about 15 minutes to Oxford Road, 5 more to Piccadilly) for a spa treatment day at Banatine's.
We popped in quickly to ask if we could park up whilst in Manchester, and cheekily asked if the room was ready. Wonderfully it was, and at 10am (officially check in is 3pm) we were in our room! We went into Manchester and back without any issue.
There are ASDA and Tesco stores on the retail park which we used, and also Pizza Hut, McDonald's, KFC, Nandos, a Chinese, a bar and a couple of Italians. We took pizza back to the room with no comments from staff.
The restaurant has an amazing view of the ground and pitch, steak was £23, other staples were around £13 per main course.
The room was big (we had a suite) with a sitting room, bedroom, and huge bathroom. Everything was clean and well presented. The sofa bed was in poor condition and the tellies were terribly outdated! But the staff and bed and general standards in the hotel were excellent.
We used the health club. A nice pool, sauna, steam room and jacuzzi. All clean and free for guests. Think there was a gym but can't remember for sure.
Finally we were able to get a late check out at no extra cost to really top off a cracking weekend.

In April 2012, nigel s said about Bolton Stadium Hotel
we stayed Saturday 28 April and i had emailed the hotel to request a room with a pitch view which was confirmed straight away.all the staff we dealt with from the reception to the bar staff were all polite and courteous.our room 333 was clean and tidy with a pitch view as requested but my only gripe would be that in this room the sound of the heating was very noisy and from 6ish Sunday morning the heating/boiler would fire up every 3 minutes or so and last for the same time.we used the pool,steam room,sauna and jacuzzi and although they are not the biggest they help to enhance the hotel over other hotels.we pre-booked the breakfast at £9 or its £10.50 on the day but unfortunately it was not to the standard you would expect for that money,certainly compared to De Veres other hotels the village.all in all its a good hotel that offers good value for money with good facilities with an excellent bar and lounge.

My husband and I regularly stay at this hotel as a bit of a getaway and we were sent a very reasonable offer for an overnight stay. As it was our anniversary we decided to book it and have a bit of a break.
As always the receptionist couldn't have been more pleasant. We just had a basic room but always spotless and no issues at all. We used the facilities and the pool although small was very quiet for a Saturday and the steam room and sauna were great.
We did stop for a drink at the bar before heading out and I would say after living in the Centre of Manchester for a number of years, the drinks prices were a bit steep at £11 for 2 single brandies. Not complaining though as we chose to drink there when other bars nearby.
We paid for the breakfast and I do not understand why people are not happy with the standard. The food was very nice with everything you could want for breakfast - A cooked english selection, pastries, fruit, a cold selection of meat and bread, toast and coffee, tea and juice on demand. Totally worth the price.
My one and only grumble was that my husband had emailed in advance to advise it was our anniversary and that if possible could we have a room that overlooked the pitch. We didn't hold out any hope as we were booked under a deal but we didn't get a response. I understand that it is a busy night and we are not full paying guests but a courtesy email to just advise none were available would have gone a long way to making our stay perfect.
Other than that, a quality hotel with some very nice features. Will be back soon!

Stayed here on Sunday 29th April 2012 with my two children aged 8 & 9 years old, booked two rooms through Booking.com, also my sister booked three rooms through them for her family.
We all thoroughly enjoyed our stay as the staff were brilliant, haven't been anywhere in a long time where I have seen hotel staff so pleased to look after you with a jovial smile on their face!!!
We all used the swimming pool, this is a very small pool and not one for serious swimming, 2 women got very stressy that my children were actually enjoying themselves,shame on them!!! The steam room and sauna were very good and roomy, shame there aren't any beauty treatments on offer.
The rooms were clean and adequate for what we needed staying just one night, they were well furnished, a bit on the small side but no more so than any other city hotel. Ladies take your own hair dryer or use the ones in the spa as the one's in the room are terrible.
we all had breakfast the next morning which was excellent and again the staff were exceptional, the lady 'Naomi' took my children up to see the BW pitch, very kind of her.
The hotel is right on the Middlebrook Retail Park and within walking distance of the railway station, Asda, M & S, and loads of shops and restaurants. If you don't know Bolton it is some distance from Bolton town centre but you can use the train.
would definitely stay there again!!!

Stayed last weekend. Very nice 4* hotel situated within the Reebok Complex with a perfect view of Bolton Wanderers stadium from the restaurant windows. The staff were very pleasant and helpful. The rooms were spacious and clean. King sized bed for us. Don't know if all are that size
Roomy, clean bathroom. Liked the fact there was an ironing board and iron in the wardrobe, as well as a trouserpress in the room. Didn't avail ourselves of the spa, swimming pool etc. because we had a wedding to go to.
