The room was clean tidy and the bed was very comfy. The shower was not very powerful. Soap was provided, but no moisturiser..
I had a drink at the bar which had no ice as the machine was broken. I used the swimming pool but looked fairly cloudy and the locker room didn’t have locks unless you bought your own. Clean towels Were provided. Overall this is a nice hotel but maintenance needs improving.

Room - clean & spacious.
Amenities such as shower gel, shampoo & hand wash provided. Tea/coffee just for 1 day provided. Toilet had mould inside it - needs a good bleaching & sink was blocked - need to put unblock soda in. The bathroom door paint peeling from the bottom - doesn't make the room look well maintained.
No fridge. It's very hot so in my opinion a bucket of ice should be auto provided/asked upon check in which would have solved the no fridge situation. It was very busy at the bar so I didn't bother. Bathroom water is fine to drink. If prefer bottled then purchase at the bar. I thought 1 bottle each would be provided then can refill from the bathroom.
Originally ground floor room given - smelly corridor. Felt like we were in the car park as it was noisy (room view was the car park) Asked to move up, moved to first floor which reduced the traffic noise.
Staff were friendly.
Breakfast was nice.

Stayed 3 nights. Comfortable clean room. Could have done with more milk, tea bags in room ( as with most hotels, have to keep going to reception for proper portions !). Breakfast £18, no choice to have just toast/bacon sandwich and coffee, or a smaller cheaper version. Nice clean large hotel though. Check in always takes a while and was charged for parking without being told I was? Just saw it on my receipt.

Two night stay. Checked in and was given a room without AC which I knew I would struggle with, but a quick trip to reception and I was moved to a room with AC. Room was very clean, with everything you need. There was a socket that looked a little dangerous as was hanging off the wall but didn't affect my stay. Decent breakfast with a lot of choice. The outstanding thing for me was the staff. Each and every one of them were friendly and helpful on what appeared a very busy weekend for them. I would certainly stay again if I needed a hotel I that area.

I called a few days before to indicate that I would be arriving late at around 10pm. I was advised that it was fine as the reception was staffed 24 hours. I also cheekily asked for air con, so I was allocated a room with it. I hadn't realised that not all rooms were air conditioned. That was a nice touch.
Upon arrival, I was required to pay for parking, acceptable! I was then advised that I was too late for the restaurant, which closes at 9.30 pm. It's a shame they didn't tell me this when I called in advance.
The room was a little dated in its decor but a good size with all the amenities you'd expect.
Overall, I would recommend the hotel and would stay again if I were in Telford. It is easy to find with a large car park.

Was very disappointed to find that a I had to pay £12 for the car park when it clearly states £10. And on checking with friends who actually paid £1.60 for overnight parking on the Travelodge.
Also was ready to use the pool facilities once checked in only to find that it was an extra £10 charge per person for the benefit with only 1 hour left to use it. There is no mention for extra charges anywhere in my booking with Expedia

Lovely hotel, if a touch dated now. Room was spacious, beds were very comfy. Good shower, overall very clean.

Very close to Telford Shopping Centre. KFC and Burger King across the road. Good parking, if a little pricey considering where it is.

Would stay again!

This is a standard, mid-range hotel on a business park.
Telford town centre is a 10-minute walk away. It is a modern retail centre, dominated by the big brands with no independent shops/restaurants/pubs. Fine, if that's your thing.
The staff were friendly and helpful.
Breakfast was generous but standard.
This is a one-night stay hotel for a specific purpose, not a tourist hotel

Our experience of the staff was the best part of our stay. From Steph on reception, who very kindly arranged connecting rooms for my daughter and I, to Anes in the restaurant, who provided us with exemplary dinner service and was so warm and welcoming (turning my drink into a pretend cocktail was such a sweet touch!) The other reception team members (Debra?) were so helpful on checkin as we got there so late, were very tired and just needed food and bed! The other restaurant team were lovely, although I didn't get their nes as they were not front of house, but everything was served with a warm smile and gentle checking if all was ok. The rooms were lovely, very adequate for our needs. The layout of the bathroom was slightly irritating, but that might just be me being picky! The hand towel was kept over the loo and the soap was to the right of the sink high on the wall, so you had to reach past the loo roll with wet hands a couple of times (dripping everywhere). Having rhe hand soap lower and the towel on a rail near the sink would be better but that is such a TINY observation! Breakfast was good and plentiful I really loved the little signs which made such a difference! Our meal in the restaurant was great too, I had the fishcake starter and the steak baguette, both of which were tasty and well prepared. Overall, would definitely choose this again for a stay in Telford, it was very close to the centre.

It's not the best example of a four star hotel. I wouldn't give it that rating - maybe a good 3 star. It's not very fancy. The layout is rubbish. I had to walk through the leisure centre to get to my first floor room. I don't know why the stairs were so far away from reception. Odd. The bed gave a comfortable sleep. The room was a bit noisy because it was near a connecting door but apart from that, it was a good size. The shower and the toiletries were fine. You could tell that the hotel was a bit dated but the decor was fine. We were having poor weather for May, so I appreciated the radiator being on. The breakfast was a reasonable standard. It had some local produce which was nice to see - Shropshire tea and Ludlow preserves. I appreciated the healthy options like porridge \"toppings\" even though there was no actual porridge (at least, if there was I didn't see it and I didn't ask!). The staff were a little bit \"casual\" but friendly enough. I mean, it was one of those situations where they were busy talking and interacting with each other and not paying me much attention as a customer. I thought paying for parking was a bit of a surprise but in the end the charge worked out OK for the length of my stay.

Great location for the international arena, hotel was well maintained and clean although the room was a bit cold and the hot water in the bath/shower was scalding or freezing and the hand basin didn’t get hot. Staff were very pleasant and the breakfast was great, I would recommend.

A reasonably nice hotel. Book well ahead as it fills up really fast when something is on and the price doubles. Breakfast is over priced and varies in price depending on whether you book it the night before or on the same day. Which is odd.

Everything was as it should be clean room friendly staff close to shops

Only issue was breakfast

They had a big group of a lacrosse team and staff one part of the brekfast area was reserved for the lacrosse team so seating was a issue

We ended up seated in the bar erea due to no seats and was told other area was reserved for the team

Cups had run out and was given take away cup instead

And milk

Was dissatisfaction with breakfast with a few people that could not find seating

If there was not going to be enough seating for everyone then i think breakfast should be staggered so all guests can be seated

Typical city centre hotel, built for busiess travellers. The hotel looks a little tires and is in need of redecoration. There is a privaye gym/leisure centre wihin the hotel, that menat that there was a lot of fottfall in that area, which wasn't idea; when trying to get to your room, and there wasa big smell of cholrine and sweat. Breakfast was not included, but I was happy to pay extra, and was good value and tasty. Whatr was not impressive was the surly attitude of a male member of staff who seemed more interested in gossiping with his colleagues than providing a poite service to guests.

The room was to a good standard, clean and with decent supplies. Staff were helpful and friendly. Breakfast had a good variety to choose from. Two negatives were the lift being out of order all weekend and the fact that we now have to pay to use the leisure facilities, a factor that will make us book elsewhere in the future.

This one night stay was so that my wife and I could take our grandson to the hotel where he is staying for 5 nights as he’s on an apprenticeship training course near Telford. Pleasantly surprised with its location just off the M54 the property is modern and is in very good condition. I booked through Hotels.com and paid £81.00 including a very good breakfast for both of us. I understand there is a swimming pool and sauna and possibly a gym (not used) Staff were very polite and helpful and for the money paid you simply cannot complain and I would recommend it to anyone looking for a cheaper priced hotel.

The pool is absolutely tiny and an extra charge so we decided against using it. Service at the bar was very slow with a long wait for anyone to come to serve for drinks. Doors were being slammed loudly until about 1am. The rooms are very small. Breakfast was good but I ended up with a dodgy tummy pretty much as soon as we left. Would have been much better at a premier in.

Booked a double room, but hotel cocked up and gave us a double. When I went down to complain they said they had no other twins left so would ring around the other hotels, which at 11.30pm was not what we wanted, so - as was with my 17 year old son rather than a work colleague - we stuck with double room. Not ideal at all - a little uncomfortable - but little choice. Person on night shift said to complain to manager in the morning. Manager in the morning said to complain to Expedia - even though they admitted it was their error (as showed evidence that a twin had been booked).
Even room we did have had a light bulb missing in one of the main lights, and housekeeping came banging on door at 9.30am in the morning asking if we wanted servicing - which was ridiculous - surely they have a better system for sorting which rooms to clean than going room to room waking everyone up!
Reception in the evening was also very slow - as they seemed to have the same person serving behind the bar, serving on reception and doing whatever else needed doing - not good service at all (noting that not because staff had bad attitude - they were generally ok, but just that the whole operation was understaffed / poorly managed). Not sure how to formally complain, so would appreciate a response from Expedia, otherwise will try another route.

Nice hotel lobby, welcoming staff. We didn’t use any facilities but there’s a few sitting areas, pool tables, screen with sports on at the time. All good.

The room was pleasant with all the usual amenities. The bathroom was in a good state of repair but not faultless with some mouldy silicone and grout (is that the norm nowadays?)

The biggest issue was the noise of other doors slamming as people carelessly let them shut, regularly from 21:00-23:00 and regularly again from 7:00-8:00 onwards. It was an issue for us, but might not be for you!

Room was satisfactory but a little over furnished. Shower control defective, no maintenance staff available over weekend to rectify it, although we were offered an alternative room.
The dinner service in the restaurant was a complete and utter shambles. 45 minutes wait for a table due to \"An unexpected rush\", poor and disorganised service and when the waitress brought the wrong order and had it pointed out to her, she had the temerity to argue.
At breakfast, which had to be ordered at reception the night before, so an unexpected rush could not happen, they ran short of cups, glasses and spoons.
Tables, cruets and menus were all sticky.
Confused, disorganised, poorly trained and short staffed, it is difficult for for a moderate man using temperate language adequately to criticise them.

I booked this hotel for the spa facilities but I didn’t use them as it wasn’t a relaxing and particularly clean area. The changing rooms were a state with wet towels all over the floor and the general areas were tired and worn out. The corridors throughout the hotel had worn and stained carpets and the whole place just felt a bit grotty. We were staying there for a sporting event at the International Centre so didn’t spend much time in the hotel so it was fine as the room was clean and the breakfast good, but it needs some work to update the public areas. The staff were lovely and very friendly though

Very poor

The photos attached are from room 501 that we were given on 4-7-2025 As you can see the bathroom was extremely dirty & the extractor fan was not working. The safe was also not working which we reported but were told there was no maintenance team on site to re set it so we had to take our valuables around with us each day. Also one of the lamps didn’t work which again we reported but nothing was done about it. We went for a swim in the pool where I found the ladies changing rooms to be in a dreadfully dirty state with slimy, filthy floors, rusty & broken locks on the lockers which were also very dirty inside. Peeling paint & black mould around the edges of the floors. The water in the jacuzzi was way too hot & was overflowing with deep foam so was too uncomfortable to use. All of this was reported to deputy manager & manager with photos as proof. My dinner that evening was inedible. The batter on the fish was very under cooked and the fish inside was horrible so they gave me another fish & chips which was the same standard so I went without a meal. The waitress gave us a bottle of water to compensate. We told the receptionist & she refunded our money. We were given another ‘superior’ room which was a little cleaner with a working safe. We asked for a refund on our stay but were told that because we had booked through ‘Hotels.Com’ we had to go through them to get our money back. We hope that this can now be arranged.

The shaving mirror was hanging off the wall. The bottom of the shower door was waterlogged and all the paint was peeling off the staff for the swimming pool, sat about on their mobile phones and ignored customers. The swimming pool ceiling is massively stained. All the lockers were dirty and the locking facilities wobbled. I will not stay in this hotel again. It is not worth the money.

Breakfast was wonderful, from full English to continental breakfast. The staff during breakfast service were amazing, very friendly and always topping up the breakfast stands.

They have a fabulous swimming pool and gym to add.

Had quite a pleasant stay up to the point that I was woken at around 8 am to the sound of drilling, banging, then at around 9am a lady knocked on my door and asked if I was checking out ! I told her that I had until noon and then mentioned the noise that I had been woken up to , she just shrugged her shoulders and said they are fixing doors ! So decided to check out on arrival at check out desk the lady just asked for room number and didn’t even ask if my stay had been ok, if she had have done I would have told her about my experience,I feel really sad that I wasn’t told that there would be noise disruption and I certainly didn’t expect a knock on my door to ask if I was checking out, very disappointing.

I ordered an accessible room, when checking in I was informed that all accessible room came with a bath which in the end makes the room \"non accessible\" I was then given a normsl room with no hold bars and no emergency bottons, also the room did not have a phone, so impssible to call for help. This hotel should not sell its self a accessible hotel if the rooms are not.
