Hotel La Tour

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely fish and chips, gluten free for my wife"

The Carrington Arms

10/10 Excellent

"Food was excellent in the evening. I didn't have breakfast as I had to be away early but the location was great, staff great & was very clean and quiet room."

Holiday Inn Express Milton Keynes by IHG

8/10 Good

"What a little gem, especially if your on a budget. Great deal for our 2 night stay. Extremely clean, staff so friendly. Breakfast was good. I've marked down 1 as one of the mornings was extremely busy and various food on the buffet ran out and we were having to wait for replenishment. They were working as fast as possible but the small area where the buffet is located became too busy, too many bodies in too little space. All in all though would return."
