Perfect location for a quiet stay when travelling to the MK Bowl. So reasinapriced, good room sizes and affordable for solo travellers with plenty of parking including EV charging. Breakfast is good with options snd staff are all lovely
Great place to stay, decent sized rooms, very clean and lots of useful amenities like the pool and gym. Good breakfast and very helpful staff. EV charging on site at a cheap rate too. Will book again when in the area.
Clean room, friendly and helpful staff. Free tea and coffee whilst you wait for your room. My only criticism is my room wasn't quite ready at checkin as they were busy, however this was quickly sorted. I would stay here again.
Not the largest of rooms but clean and well laid out with a good en-suite and air conditioning. The bed was very comfortable. The shower was perfectly warm.
Breakfast was a good buffet.
Parking, once you found the venue, was easy.
Staff were friendly and helpful but unobtrusive. Overall, a lovely stay.
The room was comfortable and clean, although spiders and cob webs on ceiling so I had to kill the 3 spiders before I could relax. Staff polite, friendly and helpful. Breakfast has a good choice.
Stayed for Cranfield Uni Grad. Amazingly convenient location (on campus). Brilliant breakfast! Also enjoyed the pool and Hartley’s (pub in the same building).
Tremendous value for money. The rooms are well equipped, the staff are helpful and friendly, and the breakfast is excellent. My only observation is that the swimming pool and leisure facilities are a little bit tired, and they’re probably due for an upgrade in the next year or two.
Really pleasant reception staff, room was 5 star, clean comfortable and was so surprised at having air con. Great experience and definitely 5 stars in every way.
Really splendid stay as always and is my go to place for a guaranteed well rested stay when on business.
I really appreciated that the receptionist upon check-in remembered my previous room during my previous stay and placed me back there during my current stay.
It’s this type of attentive service and quality rooms why I always return when travelling and doing business near by.
Very helpful staff, fitness centre small but well equipped.
Food very good.
Only 1 small critacism was the closing time of the bar food, as we wanted a desert and it was after 9:30 pm.
Had a lovely one night stay, room very comfortable with a lovely view of the fields, especially nice at sunset and sunrise.
Staff were friendly and helpful and breakfast was lovely
Very comfortable stay as always at the management centre. Staff upon check in are always very kind and attentive. I needed to change rooms as my stay was extended and without any fuss they made the change with no problems. The breakfast was fresh and plentiful and the all of the staff are very approachable and friendly.
