Hotels in Warrington with Swimming Pools

1st the rooms ate very clean, the hotel is spotless. Some issues. The hotel states its dog friendly, this is true, but it's not clear on their website that not all rooms are dog friendly, so the superior room we had booked was downgraded, and a £20 fee added as a charge for the dog. If you are dog friendly then make sure you fully reflect this in the website. Evening meal in the restaurant, the staff were very friendly and efficient. It would appear that the full online menu is not available in the restaurant , a cut down version. Ok. We were advised that the Thai Green Curry was not available. Ok. We ordered, soon afterwards, we were advised that the beer battered onion rings was also off the menu. Hmm, so every is not freshly cooked, but pulled out of the freezer. Even an average chef could manage to produce a batter and cook onion rings, not difficult . Right, the room, is fine, but no ability to regulate the heat, reduced opening on the windows, didn't help. Right, breakfast. We arrived at 8:40, the restaurant was fairly empty. We were taken to a table. The staff appeared to be totality uninterested. We went to the buffet bar, no eggs, asked and were advised they were cooked to order. So we ordered two poached eggs and two fried eggs. No. They can't do fried eggs, only poached or scrambled. That confirms that nothing is actually cooked. No eggs, are they being serious? The scrambled arrived it appear to be swimming in some liquid, not pleasant. Right the cold buffet bar looked poor, the yoghurt was empty. No white bread to toast. The staff were not bothered to ask if we wanted our coffee topping up. At precisely 9:00 AM the staff kicked into action and cleared the hot food. I asked when did they stop serving, they answered 9:30, but they cleared everything away at 9:00. Paying customers who turned up after 9 looked dismayed at the empty hot buffet. The uninterested stsff had to go and get the food from the kitchen .I've stayed in a large number of hotels ranging from guest houses to 5 star, but have never seen such poor attitude at breakfast, a failure to fry an egg. Needs looking at..

We really enjoyed our visit today. We were only day pass guests tho ( because we are too cheap to get memberships) anyway, the staff on reception at the gym were so helpful and gave us a lock and a towel each, the price was £2 a towel ... 2 quid ! This country is in a crisis right now and like Adele says ' Go easy on me baby ' I handed over my card like Whoopi Goldberg handing the cheque to that nun in Ghost ...unfortunately the sauna was out of use which miffed us off abit but we didn't let that spoil things. The facilities were great .. steam room , swimming pool which was heated ! I had thoughts of a reenactment from the ending of Titanic but no ... oh and a jacuzzi ! After some time of day-dreaming and pretending that this place was my own, and it was part of my new house that I'd just purchased after winning big on the lotto, we got out and headed to the changies. Love that I could dry my hair and get my full geisha on instead of looking like a drowned rat that had been pulled from some kind of wreckage . After our time in the pool , we went for dinner ( we say dinner not lunch , we are Northern) ... we strutted into the bar and grill like we owned the gaff . We were greeted by the beautiful Wynne who was an absolute star. So happy, polite and adorable. It was at this point we needed to channel our inner Augustus Gloop and grip the menu. We got the Peri Peri burger stack each with fries and coleslaw and my guy in the kitchen did not disapoint . Wynne brought our food over and it was delicious,a tad overpriced I thought but it was lovely food. ( i just wont but my heating on for another week) I would've given a full 5 star rating but the sauna being out of order is the only reason why I'm not giving 5. Would come back again, course we would xxx
