THIS IS A DIRTY HOTEL.Bleach water doesn't make it clean.Do not waste your money.This hotel is nasty and dirty, and the food was awful. And the staff and their service were even worse.The hotel needs to shut down and be rebuilt.Spa , jacuzzi is not working.We didn't even get the pass we asked for. And people who did had to get staff to let them in.We walked around, but we were told that these had been broken for the past few days before we booked, but we were not informed of this.Before our arrival.No one told us about this at the time of booking or afterwards.We were still under the impression from the website booking.com that this was a spa hotel.How very disappointing. And misleading totally.The room was dirty, the receptionist said l can only leave a message for the manager when we complained. No one spoke with us. And it was too late to book anywhere else. the sink in the bathroom was broken and glued back together. Rusty bin, dirty shower, water only dribbled out. There was no water pressure, there was dirty floors, cobwebs, and hair of all sorts on the floors. The carpets in the bedroom had loads of stains. Bed base was all torn and stained.The kettle had loads of limescale in it.But when we boiled it and poured the water out, the limescale kept coming out every time. So we couldn't even have a cup of tea.There was a flashing pedestrian light outside that came through the curtains. So, sleep was not an option.This was the worst hotel I have ever stayed in.I don't recommend any food.And the coffee was cold.We had to get our own cutlery as none of them were on the table.

The room was clean but a tad outdated! |The tv was so small you would have to have extremely good eyesight to see it.|The bed was very comfortable. Thats the only good thing I can say sadly. …

Not a bad hotel for the price. I see there was a few bad comments. We paid for the junior suite (room 7). A nice decent size room. Big bed, sofa, sml TV, kettle with tea & coffee. …

Would have awarded 0 stars if the site had let me. The hotel management refused to refund a room fee that had been booked in error. The room was dated, bathroom was dirty and walls had peeling paint. ||The bed was incredibly uncomfortable and provided little support. Please, please, please don’t waste your time with the Shurland Hotel.

The most uncomfortable, worn out old mattress I think I have ever slept on. Also mould growing in the bathroom due to zero ventilation in there. Add to that the music from the pub downstairs drowning anything else out. Not the best hotel I've stayed in for sure. Staff were friendly enough so can't fault that.

our stay was far from acceptable, there was a postage stamp size television, our room was incredibly small, there was a really disgusting damp smell from the main toilets in the actual hotel. It was advertised as a gym spa hotel. Not a pub ( that didn't get customers) hotel, gym with a jacuzzi.A spa is somewhere you can get actual relaxation and spa treatments, not smelly, damp and just unacceptable accommodation.we stayed but ended going elsewhere for food and atmosphere as it was dead!!! would never stay again.
