Top Inspire Hands-On Science Centre Hotel Reviews

Number 82 The Unthank

8/10 Good

"The room was a great size and a great location, with parking. It was quiet and private and I appreciated the fact that there was an external door and a 'front door to my room as it gave more security - however each time I went to the external door it was ajar, so actually anyone could have walked in. I think it isn't quite heavy enough to slam shut itself, or the catch isn't quite right. Also note that you have to physically lock your own door with the key and not assume it'll lock itself - same for locking yourself in. My only real issue was that I had a room with a freestanding bath and when I let the water out, it pushed drain gunk up into the shower tray in the ensuite bathroom and it smelled pretty bad. I shut the bathroom door which trapped most of the smell but it was disappointing. Really helpful staff. The gym looked good but I didn't use it."

The Maids Head Hotel

10/10 Excellent
