Check-in was a slow process, but the staff were all very friendly. ||The room was quite basic, akin to Premier Inn, and dimly lit. …

Stayed at this hotel for work couple times and This hotel is simply amazing, staffs amazing, food amazing! Everything is so great about this hotel. Let’s start with the staff, I think hospitality is dead but coming across these guys bring hope back into the dream of going out and enjoying yourself. Gentleman called Owen always helpful kind and whenever I had a question or needed anything this gentleman made it happen and helped! Another gentleman I don’t know his name but I see him running the food out , working hard and he’s always so pleasant. Lady called Nat I think honestly she helped tons with checking in the ladies and helped me with this points system again another kind hearted person. Gentleman with a beard on the front desk, he’s an absolute legend came in first night lost tired and he helped and also a pleasant to talk to, did not mess me about and gave me great places to eat thank you for all of your great hospitality! my girlfriend infront me that the cleaner are amazing!!Food! The food does take time but it’s worth every second! Chefs i don’t know what your doing but them pizza are absolutely lush! Plus it’s better than that garbage dragonfly pub right beside it! There’s no reason not to stay there because everything is a 10/10

Rooms were clean and quiet. The included breakfast was good value and a reasonable selection of foods to choose between. I recommend going to the pub right next door which does good food. Service was efficient. There’s a large downstairs lobby.

Budget hotel, clean with friendly, helpful staff. Rooms were standard, bathroom pretty cramped, but had everything you need. Double bed was tiny and uncomfortable. Sofa bed a decent size, but also uncomfortable. Some noise from the road on one side. Quite a lot of free parking available. Pub next door.Decent breakfast (included) with all the usual fayre - full English and/or continental. Nice welcome when we arrived and staff couldn't do enough for us.

We only stayed one night. The bed was comfortable and not rock hard, the pillows were great and didn’t go flat in the night. It was a quiet location and right next door to a lovely pub but we could have eaten in the hotel. Breakfast was included and had all of the normal fare for hot and cold. The best thing about this hotel is the bathroom. I’m from Australia and the shower was large and easy to use. (If you know, you know) Also there was non of that weird arty soaps hotel’s seem to like. The last place had kale shampoo - seriously who’s using this stuff? They had Dove body wash and shampoo. It smells lovely and it’s like a comfort from home. Also the girl on reception, her name was either Nadine or Natasha - apologies for forgetting - was delightful. So helpful and friendly.

Stayed here for Party At The Park. Lovely and clean hotel. Breakfast was lovely apart from the bread. After putting my toast on the plate I noticed mould on the crust. They immediately changed all the bread and apologised. It was a boiling hot day so bread goes off quicker I guess.All the staff were lovely. Could not fault them.Would definitely stay again but will check my bread .

Stayed with Newport Holiday Inn Express a few times and am always made to feel welcomed. The rooms are good value for what you pay for, with all the facilities you need for a short stay.Staff are always very friendly and accommodating, nothing is ever too much to ask for. Particularly have dealt with Richard, Owen, Ash all of whom are so lovely and approachable.Breakfast is always a good selection. Once again, good value for what you pay for.
