The location was great. Right next to a tram stop. When I checked in I had to ask how to get to the lift and there was no information in the room about facilities. The bed was really uncomfortable but everything else was fine.

Nightmare
Booked this hotel as stayed before as it was ok. But this time it was a nightmare 3/4 attempts to get entry to the room as cards didn't work. TV didn't work spoke with reception and was a straight reply it does work No hot water for shower or sink Had to put my wife in another hotel because of the above. It was a total disaster of a night To say will i be returning NO is my answer and other may rethink about saying there. Not even a sorry from reception staff

Average
I had hoped for a better experience after reading the reviews and star rating. As a business user and regular app user first time I have been asked for a security deposit! not on account transactions! with a card payment being held. This was not explained and the staff were dismissive when I asked why the card swipe was required. It was not flagged in the booking summary. Overall for me it was average and would not rush back especially when requiring security deposits. Check in / out could have been a swifter process. Car park appears to be run by a third party this was not made clear at check in, at check in / out staff were not minded to help but check your reg in as they cannot advise. Parking bays are very tight typical where they have maxed the number of spaces in the area to sound good unfortunately as a result access egress of the vehicle when the car park if full is pain, not to mention getting the bags out. Breakfast average Fire alarm, evacuation and no apology from the hotel team, I am sure they get used to it but as a guest a simple apology would have been appreciated. Bed ok, pillows poor quality. Well they asked for feedback, the above is a fair summary.

Very nice bar and lounge at the hotel and staff well presented but our room was very dated. The tv didn't work (we did report but nothing was done) and the only ceiling light flashed for at least 5 minutes when first switched on. We were told we had been given a room with a view, but all we could see were the rooftops of the lower level of the hotel. We did only pay £59 so I suppose you get what you pay for!

Good size rooms, although a bit dated. Friendly staff but they are understaffed. Huge queues at check in. Arrived early and asked to pay for early check in, but they couldnt accomodate, one guy on the desk. No manager. Unfortunately our radiator was stuck to 'on' and couldnt be fixed by the staff. Apparently no maintenance man on site at weekends. Hotel was full so they couldnt move us to another room. Didnt sleep all night as room was like a sauna.

Unprofessional and unacceptable
Shambolic and quite unbelievable. I had booked my stay over 1 month before arriving for a twin room. The day before I was sent an early check in-email from the Copthorne which I responded to and received a confirmation number. At checkin I was told that my booking was found, but there were no rooms remaining in the hotel. I asked how can this happen when I have 1) a booking reference from 1 month ago and 2) a pre-check in confirmation from the day prior. The answer was ‘I do not know, but there are no rooms left. Our company need to stop sending pre-checkin messages like this. I dont like them’. . . How helpful to my situation. Not! No solution came forward so I insisted to the staff speak with a superior. I was travelling with my elderly father for a memorable football game. A double room was offered after some period of waiting (not sure how it magically appeared), but no offer of two rooms. The staff asked if I had tried to check-in earlier at the time of football and I said ‘no’. It was then said to me that had I done so, I would have a twin room as it is ‘first come first serve’. How incompetent can a company be to allow a booking, send a pre-checkin and yet prioritise on-the-day walkin customers with no prior booking? With no alternative I accepted a double room and compensatory breakfast. The toilet had not been flushed in the room which just added to the disgrace of this outdated hotel.

Arrived on a Saturday morning, when United were a 3pm kick off. Plenty of parking which is free for hotel guests. Understandably there was no early check in available. Came back at 2.15pm to find one receptionist dealing with a queue of 7/8 guests. Check in was slow. Management did nothing to help the person on reception. Room was a good size, but looked like it hadn’t had much re-decoration since it was opened in the late 80s early 90s. Bathroom very dated. Comfortable though and fairly quiet. Great location for the football and just across the road from the tram into town.

Weekend away
The hotel room was dated and needs a refurb. No 3 pin plug socket by the bed. Only one extension lead by the tv. Fire alarm went off during the night (2am) due to a hotel guest leaving the bathroom door open and the steam from the shower setting it off. It definitely disturbed us and we struggled to get back to sleep. On the plus side, the view was great and it was ideal having free parking.

Copthorne 3 night weekend stay.
A great value hotel in an excellent location out of town but close to tram and bus stops so everything is within easy reach. Hotel was clean great staff and room was accomodating. Good size car park even though didnt use as travelled there by train and used public transport. Great view from room as well over the quay. Would definitely stay again.

Near the tram but unfortunately this wasn’t running the weekend we were there. Room was a good price but our room overlooked what presumably was the staff car park which was quite noisy, also early morning traffic was quite noisy. If you can I would recommend trying to get a quayside view as I assume that side of the hotel would be much quieter.
