when checking out I metioned the cold room. the receptionist said I should have reported it! I think a good caring hotelier should know exactly what the rooms are like and should have taken preventative action before a complaint arises. I stayed here some years ago and enjoyed my stay (it must have been in the summer)

Very good value for money. Room was adequate. Handy for the motorway etc.

Most TV channels weren't tuned in, TV and light switch was on the headboard of the bed meaning I couldn't lean back on it to read without turning of the light!

It was everything that it said it would be - and did not claim to be anything other than it actually was. You cannot fault that.

The hotel was clean and facilities fine.

Staff member (female) on check in was miserable. I got the impression that nobody really likes working there!

The staff at The Newport Lodge are superb-friendly and helpful, and make the stay one you would want to repeat.

Bathrooms could do with updating and TV systems are small.

Friendly welcoming staff. Dealt with a problem in a very professional manner

Thorough inspection of the room by the staff prior to occupation would have highlighted a problem.

Friendly, helpful staff. Delicious well-cooked breakfast.

Bath had a couple of stains and there were a couple of dead flies on the bathroom window-sill (perhaps they'd only just got there). Bed was a bit soft for my liking. Otherwise, very clean and well-presented room.

We were staying at this hotel just as visitors for a local concert so it really was just a bed for the night - the friendliness and helpfulness of the staff made up for the room - I wouldn't recommend for a romantic break but it served its purpose for us.
(97651788)

The staff were friendly and helpful and breakfast was nice if a little limited.

The room was a little old fashioned, and the bathroom was clean but dated. 2 out of 9 TV channels were out of signal. No tea bags!

As with all reviews, it is possible to find fault. However, I think it is important that you view the whole rather than pick on detail, so I would say that the hotel is an excellent and would recommend it to any traveller because of the hard-working and friendly staff. It is the people that makes the stay enjoyable.

The room I was first given was dirty and had unmade beds. The second room was fine, but the TV sound did not work.
Tghe staff were very apologetic and after a 1/2 hour wait gave me a new room. They also gave me a free couple of drinks and a newspaper.
So, in general, I was satisfied. The manageress was very pleasant too.
