Just needed somewhere for 2 days work. Very busy with pensioners but expensive for what was available. Struggled to get a drink with evening meal due to lack of bar staff. B&B but breakfast didn't start till 0830 and i was in work at 0730, no alternative offered.

we stayed half board and the food was amazing, buffet starter, plated main with a chioce of 4 dishes and good portion sizes and the desert was also buffet style, so food wise we couldnt fault it, the room however wasn't the best, room 103 had a dingy look of an alleyway and was quite small, it could have done with a good refurb as it was quite dated, it was also very confusing how to get to your rooms, you had to go upstairs, across the landing then down stairs, across another landing then up more stairs to the room. everywhere you went, you saw people looking for their rooms. saying all this, i would say we would still go back to this hotel because the food made it worthwhile.

Hotel needs a full refurb, damp in the room, all areas of the hotel are dated and in dire need of moderisation, however the room was relativeley clean, the food (breakfast) is good and plentiful, we never ate the evening dinner option, overall 3 out of 5 for me.

Stayed for 3 nights over the bank holiday weekend. My room wasnt too bad although the corriders and stairs in the building are very much in need of renovation. The food was very good, lovely and hot and fresh. Restaurant staff brilliant. The entertainment Friday and Saturday was incredible. Sunday was just so grateful that Emma Norman was singing as the actual show was nothing like the first two nights. The comedian Lennie needs to get a some new material. Emma was amazing, how lucky is the Viking to have her on board. The housekeeping of the rooms was not up to standard although the lady on reception quickly remied this. Also I got an early morning alarm call at 7 am Saturday and Monday although I had not requested this. Also housekeeping knocked on my door at 9.30 am and 9.45 on day of departure although checkout not until 10.30 am

Stayed over August bank holiday weekend for our first ever time. Parking was good, only problem here was drivers not parking their car, they just drove it in to a spot, making it difficult for others and very selfish. The staff from booking in to leaving were friendly , warm, caring and excellent. Our room was everything we needed for a weekend break, with tea and coffee provided. The food ( we was half board) I could not fault at all, and again the staff were great. The entertainment, we reserved a table, which was good, really good entertainment room, now I am very meticulous with comedians, I think the main stream comedians are not funny at all. However they have a comedian called Buddy Lee, seriously a very funny character and I will come back again to watch him and I would recommend this hotel to anyone.
