Nice room, shame about the amenities

Friendly and efficient check-in process. Very large room with full bathroom. However, we noted upon entering that the shower gel dispenser was empty. When we requested it to be filled, we were given a very strange response as to why they had been instructed not to refill the shower gel (ranging from "allergies" to "Covid restrictions". Neither of these excuses made sense, since the hand soap dispenser in the bathroom was half filled with soap (therefore the "allergies" meant nothing, and we have not had any Covid restrictions in England for a number of weeks. Our room booking was for a "Deluxe" room (including toiletries) - not providing shower gel does not mean deluxe in my opinion. Our booking also said that free wi-fi was available throughout. While we could easily access the wi-fi in the downstairs bar, it was impossible to do so in the room, meaning we could not carry out a couple of work related tasks which we needed to do. We stayed on a bed and breakfast basis and upon arrival were told that we had the last available slot (7.50 a.m.). I have no idea why the breakfast service has to start so early as the place was not exactly full. Breakfast was OK. Our room was right beside the extractor from the kitchen which came on at 6.30 a.m. and woke us up.

Easter at The Windmill Inn

Hotel location near to M6 was perfect for our needs. Our room was very comfortable and clean. Breakfast was delicious. An excellent range of beers were available at a reasonable price (by today's standards). Dining facilities left a lot to be desired and nobody seemed to be eating there. At last we found a room with a TV that you didn't need a degree to watch You just pressed the power button and then the required channel Hooray

Needs alot of TLC

The hotel is under new ownership and needs alot of refurbishment. As the kitchen seems to be the priority dinner was only available until 2030 and breakfast from 0700 to 0815! All areas need updating. eg bedroom curtains threadbare and dirty

Windmill Inn

Good food, nice bar with plenty of options, very good service. Rooms are nice, good shower and comfy bed. Upstairs was very hot, had to open window and room backs onto busy road. There was loud music playing downstairs which was very nousy in the bedroom, went on until about midnight. Looks like an old building so probably not very sound proof.

Great Location for Travellers

Extensive roadworks made it difficult to access the hotel when we visited. However they were very nearly finished and the result will be a much improved Motorway Junction 19. Make sure you look out for the B5391 Pickmere Lane, where the entrance is. The hotel has new management, and coping with the COVID situation along with the roadworks must have been a headache. The Room was a good size and clean. Foodwise the evening meal was fine on a limited menu. Breakfast has all the usual choices although our cook was a little inexperienced. His humour and enthusiasm made up for this though. Give them a try, it'll be worth it.

No food service, no breakfast - not mentioned on hotels.com site which advertised free cooked to order breakfast. Only 1 takeaway willing to deliver to the area which was 2.5 stars! Got to the hotel at 3.30pm didnt eat until 9 the next day when we just left. Windows & curtains full of dust cobwebs & dead spiders. Only saw 1 member of staff upon arrival, walked out with nobody in site! For £75 was totally substandard, complained to both the hotel & hotels.com, didn’t even get a partial or discretionary refund for an awful stay. Completely unacceptable!

complaint

After making the booking I phoned them to be told on the day that no food was available, I had to wait for them to open the gate 10 min, every time I went in or out I had to open & close the gate in the rain, the free breakfast was not available, i was left alone in the hotel all night, this hotel should not be on your website as open.
