When we last stayed at the Copthorne in 1995 it was a nice modern hotel. That's what we thought we'd booked ourselves into for a weekend break this month. Clearly though not much has been spent on it since then because the decor was very dated and overall the hotel felt very tatty and grubby. Staff were friendly and helpful... More

The hotel provided us with a 2course meal including a chicken dinner followed by sticky toffee pudding and a bottle of any wine. The food... More

So I stayed at this hotel for a Hen party and from the moment we checked in we didn't feel welcomed at all. Check in was terrible! We arrived all together about 3pm and were greeted by a rude and abrupt little female receptionist. There were no guests other than us to check in at this stage. She advised us... More

Negative feedback with regard to service is extremely rare here, as evidenced by the very high volume of positive comments on this particular area on this site. To clarify a few of the points raised- 1. Room bonds are standard... More

We booked for 2 nights at this hotel but only stayed for 1 it is very poor value for money, the rooms are dated like a throw back to the eighties. The beds were really hard and uncomfortable Restaurant area was clean staff very helpful, but the food was average.
