We stayed here for 1 night and were really impressed. We got a great rate for B&B and we had dinner in the bar when we arrived. Food in the bar was served until 10pm and we arrived at 9.45pm and they had no problem taking the order and it was freshly made. The hotel itself is right in the town centre and easy to find as its next to a big multi-story car park and the bus station. The hotel has its own small car park which they told us about before we arrived. The room had flatscreen TV and nice clean bathroom. I've no problem recommending this place.

I travel frequently for business. This was my 2nd stay here. Rooms were comfortable and clean. Minibar was empty and I didn't see vending machines for bottled water but got water with room service. Was a bit annoyed with room service though. The food was ok, just a basic pasta dish which comes with garlic bread. I didn't realise that though and ordered extra garlic bread. Staff could have told me it already came it!
Didn't do breakfast so can't comment.
Check in could have been quicker. I explained I was priority check in and he gave me forms to fill in. I started doing this but asked why as other ich's don't ask. He then realised I was pc member and just got me to sign in. Check out was a little frantic but I find mist hotels are. My only teal gripe with reception is that it's so close to the stairs ghat people have to queue on them. Not very safe.

Stayed overnight on 11th and 18th June, requested an omelette as items on menu were not suitable, with some reluctance on the 11th it was served, on the 18th after a 35 minute wait it was served with no apology for the delay, all meals from menu had been served and I ate alone, spoke to Operations Manager who then obviously spoke to wait person who grudgingly said she had forgotten to place order, despite writing it down in front of me.
Coffe and Tea were served before desserts, an unusual practice.
The rooms were OK but do not deviate from the set menu!!!!!

I've stayed here before but feel it's getting tired and won't be rushing back.
Check in was easy enough though no advantage being a Priority Club member.
Room was ok though no mini-bar and quite noisy being next to stairs.
We'd added breakfast to our room only rate but were still charged the next morning.
Free wi-fi in communal areas only.
Car park incredibly small.
Certainly no sparkle. A bit disappointing. Sigh.

Stayed here on two separate nights with coach trip and was pleasantly surprised as we have stayed at Glasgow Airport Holiday Inn Express and the food, room and facilities were nowhere near as good. Room and furnishings modern and although room small it was very comfortable.Bathroom modern and clean although again a bit on the small side it had everything we required. Appreciated the pillow menu. Choice of three dishes with three courses and coffee. Breakfast really good and the red berries which I had along with yoghurt first class.Staff courteous and obliging.

Rooms and hotel nice enough, but ALWAYS waiting. Check-in was slooow, there's no staff at the bar so you have to wait just to place an order. Went to the (empty) restaurant and got ignored by staff for 15 minutes, finally ordered and the drinks took longer to arrive than the food - and the food didn't exactly arrive quickly by any stretch. Expecting the slow staff to check me out slowly in the morning, and hopefully not returning...

We stayed here for two nights and found the hotel comfortable and the staff very friendly.
The room was clean and the bed was very comfortable.
We didn't eat at the hotel but it appeared to ave a comprehensive menu.
One thing I would say is that there appears to be a lack of car parking facilities which makes people park their cars where they can ... Even if it makes it virtually impossible for the other cars to get out of their space when they are leaving. I think some guests couldn't get parked at all in the hotel car park and had to park in a carpark across the road.
All in all we had a lovely stay and will no doubt return again.

We spent one night at the Holiday Inn at Preston whilst overnighting after a concert at the Guild Hall. Room was very clean and tidy with tea and coffee facilities in the room. We were on the second floor overlooking the bus station and although there were buses in and out regularly we didn't hear a thing due to the layers of glazing on the windows. The beds were comfortable and the room was adequately equipped with connectivity for the business traveller.
The reception staff were excellent accomodating us in the small ar park and letting us park on double yellow lines so we did not have to park in an external car park and pay the costs. All other staff including the bar and breakfast staff were also polite and helpful.
I would recommend this hotel to anyone planning a short break in the area as it has everything you need for a comfortable stay.
