Best Western Manchester Bury Bolholt Country Park Hotel

The stay was very good value - the photos are a bit flattering ! No complaints , but it could just do with being a bit more cheery ! To be fair I didn't use the restaurant or Leisure Club so I could have made more use of the hotel. less

Stopped here for Ironman UK held in Bolton. First of all the staff were great, so whoever owns the hotel you should be glad your staff stick around ! The bar is dark and dingy, breakfast was pretty poor and badly set out, restaurant had no atmoshere. The room was dated and bathroom was shoddy ! The shower is the worst shower I have ever been in ! And I've stopped in some dumps before ! The hotel is set in some lovely grounds, but would I stop here again ? No, not ever. Come on Best Western, buck your ideas up ..... less

We stayed for two nights as a family of 3 in a 2 room suite. We had a room away from the main hotel building so it was quiet and beds comfy. Shower worked very well. The room did seem a little tired and dated. Staff were friendly and helpful (although I think they need to consider how they like to have personal conversations in the hearing of guests as this is slightly unprofessional when being negative about another staff member!). Breakfast was adequate, there were several additional items on the menu that we didn’t want to order, however it wasn’t explained how you ordered them if you wanted to as it was all self service. The pool is very nice, however note that children are only allowed in it between 2pm and 5pm on weekdays. We didn’t realise this when we booked ( it may have been in the terms and conditions and could be our error in not spotting it?) one of the reasons we booked the hotel was to make use of the pool so this was a bit restrictive. The setting of the hotel is lovely, the grounds are really well maintained and there are good views. less

Wow the hotel is very good and the grounds are lovely The breakfast was great with a self serve full breakfast with plenty of options with the extra options available if requested. I had eggs Benedict made on request which was fabulous In the evening we had steak & beef baguettes with chips and a jacket with tuna The rooms were lovely as we had a family room and the beds were very comfy and plenty of towels too,even the sofa bed was cosy too The highlight though was without a doubt all the staff and their attentiveness to detail and our new doggy Izzy 🐕 Harriet, Amy, Nikita and Josh especially we’re champions and a credit to best western hotel chain Go out of your way to stay here.... you will not be disappointed 🐕🏆🐕🏆🐕🏆 less

room had a strange smell. the window didn't open more than an inch, no fan, no aircon - no sleep through being rather warm. I had to move the bed and the bedside tables to access the light switch and pug sockets. it was a struggle to close the curtains due to the positioning of the furniture. Having a shower was painful due to the complete lack of water pressure and the shower being more of a trickle. Noise from the corridor of people opening their bedroom doors and walking down the corridor was not concealed at all. added with the mattress being rather thin it made for not a great nights sleep. I would say it was ok for a one night business stay but I wouldn't stay there if I was paying for it. Food was nice and the staff were very friendly and efficient. I didn't visit the spa area less
