We had two rooms booked. 1 room was with elederly parents! The room given was a fair walk and was quite far from the reception area with no assistance only verbal directions. It would've been nice to have had some assistance from staff.
When we got to the room the sink plughole was blocked so I rang reception to get it fixed, didn't happen! Questioned reception duty staff and he lied and he said he had it fixed by maintenance when no one even came to look at it! This isn't the service we expected from ‘Mercure’ standard.
Leaning over the bath to brush our teeth and everytime we needed to wash our hands after using the toilet we had to use the bathtub.
Not sure I read anywhere but to use the swimming facilities the adults have to pay £10 fee. Other than that the hotel is near local shops/motorway as well.
The hotel and entrance are great, no complaints there. I’ve been a regular at another hotel within 5 miles of here, where the facilities are immaculate and the rooms are always meticulously clean. So I had high expectations.
On walking into my room (250), it was freezing. I immediately turned on the electric radiator, but was woken up at 2am by the thermostat flicking on and off repeatedly. The digital screen kept lighting up and going off it felt like there was a rave in my room. Highly annoying and not conducive to a good night’s sleep.
Before bed, I went for a shower and splashed foamy suds around as you do. After finishing, I was washing down the inside of the shower cubicle and noticed what I thought were leftover soap suds near the door handle. I went to wipe them off and I can tell you now, they were not soap suds.
Absolutely disgusting. The previous occupant clearly lacked basic hygiene, and although it shouldn’t be expected, the cleaners really need to have a keener eye for detail. This sort of thing should never be missed.

We had a wonderful 4 nights at Thurnham Hall.
The person who checked us in on the Sunday was very pleasant and welcoming.
We walked the grounds and they were lovely and very well looked after.The Spa and pool were excellent.
Thank you for providing such a lovely hotel for us to stay at and spend time visiting with our Lancashire relatives.
We checked in slightly early, reception staff were very kind, friendly and knowledgeable.
We had Lodge 248, the location was perfect , right beside the water and close enough to the Watersport centre .
The lodge was immaculate , the beds were huge and comfortable , the showers were super powerful, the terrace was good to sit outside and watch all the action on the Lake.
We only stayed for one night as we were travelling home , however we will definitely return again for a few nights to relax and chill out.
We were a family of 5, non complaints at all.
Stayed he a couple of years ago and loved it then!
Really great location. Close to train station , bus stops, lots of supermarkets and across from a park!
Perfect for families, pool on site to book. We had it to ourselves a couple of times.
Love this place
A great Hotel, stayed for 3 nights while visiting family. Great location, 1 minute from M6 junction, with free parking, took a dip in the pool, Spa and Steam room after a long day. 2 minute drive down the road is a McDonalds to keep kids happy and next door to McDonald s is a car park for EV charging for anyone with an Electric car, this is partly the reason for booking holiday Inn as needed to charge the car, Holiday Inn do have a restaurant and bar, quite pricey so used this once in our stay, but it’s a well stocked bar and pretty good menu. Breakfast was plenty, lots to choose from, playground outside for the children and a small play area in the lounge part of the bar, I do believe they also cater for dogs as saw a few during the stay and the reception had a treat jar.
Great hotel that is very conveniently located to the M6. Room was good, slightly dated but clean and comfortable. Breakfast was good - very big spread and variety. Access to health club was a plus. Staff friendly and attentive.

ผผู้เข้าพักHotel staff, facilities, food, swimming pools and entertainment were brilliant. Everything was presented really nicely in the foyer/reception area. The bedroom and carpets were really tired, however, and need a revamp to match the quality hotel foyer. We found the mattresses uncomfortably soft and didn't sleep well, so assume these were old too. A really mixed experience, but on balance the positive outweighed the negatives. The staff could not have been more accommodating or helpful. Highly recommend getting tram passes on app. before you arrive as need proof of children's DOB from passport or birth certificate. The tram stop is really conveniently opposite the hotel. Excellent reliable service :-)

AAndrew Samuel MarshallI chose the hotel given it was next to the University that I wanted to visit. The hotel was clean, spacious and friendly staff. A special mention to Carolyn who was particularly helpful and gave me useful information about the town which I last visited 26 years ago!
