Best Western Clifton Hotel

Decided to have a takeaway Sunday roast. Great value with a 10% discount as we collected it. The meal was huge with fresh steaming gravy. Great selection of fresh veg, loads of potatoes. Really enjoyed it. Will do it again soon. less

As every meal we had booked was canceled due to Covid we decided (for the first time ever) to try a Take Away. We have always had a good indoor dining experience at this Hotel so this was our first choice. We placed our order 24 hours prior to delivery as requested. We received a phone call to confirm the delivery would be coming but unfortunately it was a little late as the driver couldn't find us - but even he phoned us for clarification. The meal was well above our expectation. My hubby had the prawn & salmon starter which he said was superb (he offered me one of the huge prawns but I stupidly declined as I didn't want to deprive him). Then we opened our Mains and were flabbergasted. It was huge and contained more than we would normally consume in two days. He had slices and slices of beef and I had the same, but Turkey. Each container had 5 huge roast potatoes, 2 stuffing balls, pigs in blankets, parsnip, carrots, aubergene and peas. Both had a separate pot of gravy and he also got a pot of mustard and one of horseradish. As I didn't have a Starter I chose Christmas pudding. It was actually 2 small puds with custard. Oh, I almost forgot, we even got 2 Christmas crackers. The whole thing was positively superb and we wil TVl definitely be ordering again. less

Having finally escaped the COVID Colditz, aka the grand burstin hotel, at the bottom of the hill I walked upwards in search of a proper place to stay and found the Clifton Hotel. We checked in for two nights and stayed for a week. Great food and, on a clear day, views of France. Well located for the better,upper, part of the town. Nice friendly staff especially Zsofia who kept me topped up with Beer and my partner and daughter with food. Great for a short UK Town type break. less

Checked in here at the last minute after a disastrous booking at another nearby hotel, that was so grotty we decided not to stay and moved to this hotel, which was so much better and the same price! Very comfortable room with a seaview. We had already booked elsewhere to eat, but the restaurant and bar area looked very nice. less

The hotel location is good, near the town and on the Cliff Top. We had no trouble parking outside (£3 permit for a day) The staff were very friendly and it was a clean hotel. The room though was supposed to be a higher grade room(executive), but it was quite small, with uneven floors, with a few lumps in the bed and the bathroom was very old fashioned, with bath and bath tap mixer for the shower and a bathroom mirror light that didn't work (the extractor fan didn't seem to do much for the condensation either). The decor in our room looked very tired. They had a lift to get to your room, but you could only get one person in it! Breakfast was ok but the full English wasn't very "full". A bit on the stingy side portion wise. We were a little unlucky with the weather being so awful, wind and rain all night, which seemed to make quite a racket in our room. We enjoyed our stay overall, but if you want higher grade accommodation for your £100+ plus a night, then you will probably need to look elsewhere. less
