Very tired, no, exhausted Hotel
Very tired rooms, mattress was pretty bad, smallest TV I've had in a hotel. All draft lagers were off. (no gas!!) Wonder if they are struggling to survive. On the plus side, breakfast and staff were very good.

Where are all the guests?
I've stayed at the Eight Acres many times over the years and it has always been a busy and vibrant hotel, but this time it was virtually deserted. Given the absence of guests there were fewer staff on duty. The staff were polite and helpful, but the whole place felt empty. Neither the gym nor the pool was available during my stay.

Never again, don’t be fooled by the pictures
Staff were excellent in the sense that they found me another room. Fact is that the place is dated, unfit for purpose and nothing like the images. Walls were so thin that I could hear every word of next doors conversation as if they were talking to me from the next room. It’s obviously been decorated but it’s the equivalent to putting lipstick on a pig. Never again

Demolition required soon
To be honest it felt like demolition was not far away, the whole place was in poor condition, we had two rooms with no hot water and one shower that did not work at all. It was very expensive for what it was- the bar did not even have any beer - do not stay here

This review is fairly irrelevant as it closed for good a few days after we left. I felt sorry for the staff as they were given very little notice. The bar and restaurant were closed during my stay but they did honour the breakfasts that we booked

Good stay untill breakfast
We stayed here with our son who’s 1 year old. In the morning at breakfast we asked for a high chair. One high chair was already being used so they went to get another and nobody appeared back. We asked again and still no high chair. Before we left we asked at reception why nobody came back to us to be told they didn’t have anymore high chairs. This is a large family hotel and could only provide one high chair for the whole place which is shocking. Everything else at the hotel was perfect untill this service and lack of communication and honesty about only having one high chair.
