Beward Hot Trolley burns when touched

Room service was delivered in a hot trolley. No warning was given that the shelves and plates were red hot and I burnt my when trying to remove the food from the shelves. This resulted in my spilling food on the floor which was wasted. I was then charged £125 for carpet cleaning despite the problem being caused by the hot trolley. Very dissapointing that I didn't even get an apology for the inconvenience of burning my hand, never mind being charged for it. Beware..

Great hotel to chill

Great hotel and very quiet location. Came in to clear my head and prepare for 2025. The facility was clean and well maintained. The sauna and steam room was superb. The pool was clean but a bit cold when I visited.

Good price, good location and ample parking.

Hotel has everything needed, our stay was comfortable and the staff was very friendly and inviting. Ample Parking, and delicious food at restaurant. Only small thing I would request the hotel to have at least 1 US plug or adapter for visitors. All other hotels had some sort of arrangement like USB C charging etc.
