This is a review of the breast cancer care event held at the hotel. The room and tables were decorated beautifully. The food was really nice, fresh tasting and well thought out. Special mention must be made to the hotel staff, who worked really hard at the event and were pleasant and helpful throughout . Nothing was too much trouble.

Excellent hotel, have actually stayed here quite a number of times, usually when attending a function. Rooms are all fairly similar, but have been given one of the larger rooms previously which was nice. Food is very good, either served in the restaurant or in the bar. Staff have always been polite and efficient, plus there is a gym and pool on site.

My family and I went to the Georgian House for a wedding and the whole event from start to finish was immaculate in every way.
The food was good and the staff polite and helpful. The drinks prices were very expensive and out of the reach of some guests.

Arrived in the early hours and received a room with a view, as requested, overlooking the green fields and woke up to cows in the fields, the following morning.
A very restful good nights sleep, in a, " to die for bed." I'm sure that they would not notice us taking it home in the early hours !!!
The very friendly young man, and lovely young lady made a fantastic team when my son and I attended for breakfast. Very clean, polite and extremely friendly service. And, it was service. I asked for poached eggs, and five minutes later, was served good quality and well cooked eggs. W ell done Chef, and thank you. There are still some people who can cook. You passed us on the stairs, and said, "Good Morning."
We complimented you via the fantastic team. Why? because, we really enjoyed our breakfast experience. Excellent service, and well cooked food. You really should roll out the Chef's mushrooms, as they were exquisite. Flavoured with herbs. Well done Chef. Seriously, they were good.
A pleasant breakfast experience, in lovely surroundings. A very good night's sleep.
A lovely, clean pool. A good clean bar area, with a very friendly lady.
The hotel, actually was clean in every department, and this was very noticeable. Well done to all, and thank you.
We will be back.
A hotel that is both exceptional for a leisure visit, and also a corporate one. There are many corporate facilities, and the hotel is ideally situated near all motorway communications for Manchester and beyond. Give it a try. You will be happy with your choice.
Clean, comfortable, friendly, professional and warm. We were not cold at all, and trust me, we have been in some cold hotels. But, this was a lovely environment. So, book now.
We would definitely recommend this hotel, and will be back before Christmas.
Thanks to the staff, for a clean, friendly, pleasant stay.
Regards,
David and family.

Stayed overnight for a family wedding - one of 3 weddings held that day. Check -in was good and rooms were ready for early check-in.
Wedding event was good but there were some issues with the bar - my husband stopped drinking as the beer was so bad!! Also drinks very expensive.
Room facilities good and breakfast excellent.
Checkout was a disaster - guests queuing round the reception area as only one member of staff on desk

We stayed here for one night while attending a family party nearby.
Booked at the last minute through Tesco Clubcard, we thought perhaps we would get one of the 'lesser' rooms, especially as the hotel was fully booked when we arrived. However, we were welcomed kindly and given a really lovely, spacious room (standard double). For me, our room exceeded expectations for a standard double. There was a settee and the bed was HUGE.
The bathroom was also clean and a good size, with toiletries provided.
The staff were really friendly and helpful. We asked for some more milk for the tea and coffee making facilities in the room and were actually given a little jug of fresh milk. It's these little things that make you enjoy your stay.
The only thing I would have liked in the room is air conditioning. The room was warm, so we had the window open. Unfortunately, our room was overlooking the car park and we were woken by a coach with its engine running and reverse warning quite early in the morning, but the hotel can't really be blamed for the ignorance of a coach driver.
Free wifi in the hotel, which worked very well (no dropping of signal).
Overall, a lovely stay, thanks to the staff.

Good location for the motorway but this hotel is very 80's in its dated fit out, although very clean my bedroom was reminiscent of a Hotel 20 years ago. The Bathroom was outdated with a Shower that just about got you wet.
Dinner was good and service attentive, the only thing I could fault was the Coffee. I ordered a Americano which tasted like a powdered or filter coffee that had been standing for a while, disgusting!. At Breakfast I tried a Coffee from the machine but ended up having Tea. I love good Coffee and most hotels seem to have caught on to the fact that this is important to guest. The Breakfast was hot and very good quality.
I did go for a Swim at the Leisure Club, I was told there were no lockers and I would have to leave any valuable's behind the reception area. Very poor show, when there were loads of empty Lockers but obviously not enough Padlocks to go around.. One thing I hate is being addressed a 'Bud' , I am a paying guest and expect to be treated in a professional way.
The reception staff at this Hotel go the extra mile to help and should be highly commended for the front of house attitude. Well done ladies.
This could be a great Hotel with a good location for Bolton but needs a bit of TLC and decent Coffee..

The hotel is a bit rough around the edges to be honest, but Mercure often do good deals so we gave it a go and were pleased that we did.
When we arrived there was a wedding going on and the room we were allocated was literally right outside the function room. We were there for a family weekend and didn't fancy a massive party outside our door all night so reception were able to move us to a room further away.
I think there are 3 separate function rooms at this hotel, all capable of hosting weddings at the same so if you're there for a weekend, there's a fair chance you'll be sharing the hotel with some wedding guests. It's noisy and the bar is busy but the noise will stop at midnight (even after moving rooms, we could hear the music and chatter but it was more of an annoyance than a serious disturbance).
The next day, all the wedding guests leave and the hotel is transformed into a haven of tranquillity! It's still reasonably busy (coach parties come and go), but the guests don't shriek and shout, so it's a calm, pleasant environment.
The family room we shared was clean, comfortable and spacious, the bathroom was very 1980's but it did the job (and the Mercure shower gel smells lovely).
We only ate breakfast at the hotel, and it was a good standard buffet with lots of fresh fruit and farm-style bacon. Everything is self-service, including the tea and there's one of those furnace-conveyor-belt toasters. The dinner/room service menu was too expensive for us!
The changing rooms in the Spa are pretty grim (don't look up), and the gym equipment came off the arc (and has the rust to prove it), but despite that the Spa is still a pleasant place to be and seems looked after and clean - it's just old.
All in all, we enjoyed our trip and will go again if a decent deal is available, it's not The Ritz, but it's very good for the money.

We went with a coach party to this hotel and were really pleased with our stay. The hotel is clean, bathroom sparkling and all the staff were very pleasant, going out of their way to help. Good choice of food and well cooked. Can't fault it. I didn't hear one complaint from any of our party, so that speaks for itself.

Travelled on a 4 day coach trip and the hotel was used as a base for visiting places of interest in the Lancs. area. Lovely clean comfortable rooms, and excellent food.and service in the restaurant.
Friendly and helpful reception staff and would definitely recommend this hotel.
