In need of renovating

Hotel is in need of modernisation very old and tatty furniture, hair in bath plug from previous guest, no soap, shower gel in bathroom you have to pay if you want it and at £134 a night i expect at least soap to wash your hands. Just a shame as it’s a perfect location but the hotel needs some renovations.

Surprisingly Spacious Stay

This hotel was amazing! The room was large with a high ceiling. All the regular hotel buts and pieces for coffee, tea etc. The room also came with a super comfortable couch, which was perfect for a rest and not having to sit on the bed. I was really impressed with the servuces, the TV even had Netflix available. I will absolutely stay there again when travelling to Worcester :)

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities

The hotel was generally good and comfortable with an excellent location to trains and downtown core and attractions. Counter staff was responsive with other concerns and requests. The bed was beyond end of life with a deep recess, we did not mention it at departure as it was self evident and the hotel had allowed this to persist. This is picked up with basic maintenance and checking. This hotel has a VG offering if only it focussed on the basics that travellers require.

Fownes Stay

Overall it was below expectations relative to booking based on photos. Blackout curtains would have improved light outs environment. Hotel in need of general refurbishment as decor is dated. No bin in main room. Had to keep going to use bathroom bin. Lack of accessible electrical points (e.g. laptop). No electrical point where small table was situated. Would have had to move the table to the other side of the room. A few more chairs in main room for sitting. Breakfast was ok. Staff polite and courteous.
