D12 trials at the Sheffield arena

Really was basic ..had a disabled access room that was far from cosy ..I’ve stayed in a lot more hotels that offer so much more for the £88 we were charged. Ideal for the arena though and £8 for a days parking

Expect to pay for parking and tea/coffee.

Nothing wrong here, but they don't have a kettle or tea/coffee, (you have to buy it in reception). Also £8 to park your car in the car park.

If budget is what you are looking for

Good for a budget hotel though I have stayed in more modern and spacious budget hotels. Room is small not much space to move around bed was almost touching both walls. Hotel itself was tired and there was some damp and mould around the windows it is however in a great location for Sheffield EIS, arena and ice rink. Good for a night or two stay if you need to be in the area

Great hotel with lovely staff

Hotel in great location for Arena and EIS. Very clean and staff very friendly, helpful and welcoming. Room was compact but comfortable. It was great for the price. We had breakfast which was ok but very handy as we were in a rush. We will definitely use again.

Room was comforable and warm but we woke up to drilling and banging around 8am as the hotel had maintenence going on. Surely it would have made more sense to close that floor or not have rooms so close to the maintenence booked.

POOR CUSTOMER SERVICE AT CHECK-IN

Arrived at 2.30pm only to be told the official check-in time wasn’t until 3pm but if we wanted to pay £20 we could have our room straight away! We declined your ‘offer’ to pay £20 and sat in reception for 30 minutes until we were ‘allowed’ to get the key for the room we had booked. What kind of customer service is that? The room was available for occupancy so what did you hope to gain by not giving us the room just 30 minutes early? Shocking behaviour in my opinion, absolutely terrible and will definitely put us off booking with Ibis in the future. Next time we stay in Sheffield we will look for a different hotel. And, if that wasn’t bad enough, while we were sat in Reception waiting for 3pm to come around, someone came and checked in at 2.50pm! “Rules are Rules” absolutely despicable on behalf of your reception.
