Reviews for Best Western Fir Grove Hotel
Review 1:The price was very high in relation to the quality of the room (which was perfectly fine but just not worth the asking rate).
Review 2:Handy location and well maintained rooms
Review 3:Shower pressure poor. Bed adequate. Room needed bit of a facelift
Review 4:Easygoing and comfortable.really good big bath towels. Good location for my needs. Excellent breakfast
Review 5:A wedding was taking place and it seems the whole of the bar and lounge area was occupied, rather than a selected area
Review 6:The location is excellent for our needs as we have stayed here a few times before. It is central to our friends and relatives locations.
Review 7:Lack of staff in general. Nearly served myself in the bar as I had to wait so long for somebody to appear. There was no other customers so it wasn't because it was busy.
Review 8:Cleanliness of room
Review 9:The door coming back in from the courtyard didn't have a handle so we couldn't get back in after the pictures were taken. We were kept awake every time someone came through the door on our corridor (it was heavy and needed oiling) and then the staff were clearing the courtyard right outside our window at 7am, up and down, up and down, on the concrete in clicky heels which wasn't appreciated on a Sunday - get some trainers!!!
Review 10:It was very good, our room was comfortable and clean and the hotel was lovely. Can't really rate the location as we were guests to the area attending a wedding. Had a terrible nights sleep though, see my negatives!
Review 11:Wedding party on the Saturday night were very noisy and kept us awake still at 2.45am. Should not allow guests in courtyard area as bedrooms overlook and being on ground floor very noisy. Bedroom doors constantly banging and arguments
Review 12:Clean
Review 13:I was not very happy with my stay as i ordered room service but then received a call stating what i wanted wasnt available. I also had a terrible sleep as i was located next to the smoking area so could hear everything outside. Closing the window wasnt an option as the room had no airconditioning
Review 14:Not able to dine in the dining room. allocated for a Wedding. Booked as an individual. The booking placed an order for 2 diners . This was a Booking.com issue, but not able to rectify at hotel
Review 15:We thought our room was small for the price we paid.
Review 16:Rhis hotel has good parking facilities and is a clean and friendly environment in which to enjoy your stay.
Review 17:The bathroom was dirty and had mould round the tiles room with a view?? Don't think looking onto the back where all the rubbish is, is a room with a view
Review 18:The staff were all friendly
Review 19:Our room was on the ground floor intermingled with rooms for wedding guests. Unable to sleep until approx 4.30am. A nightmare. Had we been informed beforehand we would have certainly looked elsewhere
Review 20:Heating/hot water switched on at about 5am in the morning. Radiator in our room banged (like it was being hit by a hammer) from then on. No sleep! Light above bed wasn't working. Smoke door was jammed open on carpet & couldn't close properly because the mechanism was broken - really, really seriously bad! Given a discount but that's not the point.
Review 21:Nice atmosphere, nice staff, good breakfast
Review 22:The room was still dirty when we checked in had to get the cleaner to re Hoover the floor and it was a lot of money for what you got the bed was very in comfy and the air conditioning did not work
Review 23:Staff were very helpful
Review 24:Limited seating in the public areas - no lounge as such, and no bar (or a least I couldn't find one). Some areas of my room needed a good dusting - I would have used the iPod dock if it hadn't been thickly covered in dust, as was the headboard and the back of the TV was a no-go area. Otherwise, the room was clean.
Review 25:The staff were very friendly and welcoming. Helped with carrying my case upstairs. Comfortable room and bathroom was spotlessly clean. I liked the tea & coffee making facilities in the room which were also available downstairs in the lobby. Loved the free Wi-Fi.
Review 26:no conditioner only shampoo had I wanted to wash my hair. I didn't but there was no shower cap. no body lotion.
Review 27:clean and comfortable room. pleasant and helpful staff
Review 28:We were in the room right at the end of the corridor which was also where all of the cleaning supplies were kept. This meant there was a lot of noise which kept us awake in the morning, this was especially annoying as we had paid an extra £10 for a late check out so that we could have a lie in.
Review 29:Fairly Decent room, very clean bathroom, looked lovely.
Review 30:I was disappointed with my choice as it looked and sounded perfect in its description. Unfortunately on both overnight stays, weddings were taking place which left little/no space for guests to enjoy. It was very noisy with the wedding parties celebrating till 2am and 3am in the morning resulting in disturbed sleep. I would not recommend this as a quiet hotel at weekends
Review 31:Nothing!!!
Review 32:Relaxed atmosphere, attentive staff with amazing memories!!! As our 1st wedding anniversary it was made SO special and we had the quiet time together which we were not appreciative of in our wedding day , held at this venue, would recommend to anyone.
Review 33:The first night we were there our sleep was very disturbed by the extremely noisy guests at a wedding...the noise went on until after 3.00am. It is a shame the guests were not requested to respect other guests at the hotel who wanted sleep.
Review 34:Reception staff on check out the lady never asked how things were and I would of said only one towel for a couple is not sufficient and the hot water tap was scolding hot . The young man in reception the afternoon we checked in was lovely
Review 35:The lovely young ladies on breakfast duty helpful cheerful and efficient
Review 36:The price/value for money. This is not a £80pn hotel. There's noone thing wrong - it just doesn't compare well with cheaper, bettercompetitors. An ok alternative if other hotels full.
Review 37:Quiet - despite wedding parties
Review 38:The food served up was appalling, steak was not rested and bleeding over the plate, the onion rings were burnt and greasy and the presentation was like something out of a greasy spoon. The shower was not more than a trickle. The bed was lumpy and uncomfortable
Review 39:Poor food in restaurant, overcooked toad in the hole and both the pizzas we had were awful. Air con way too cold needed coats in restaurant. Trees in car park harbour the biggest birds ever ! And the bird poo proves it !
Review 40:Free wifi, nice room, comfy bed, courtyard, cheap price, free parking.
Review 41:My son didn't find his bed comfortable although mine was comfortable.
Review 42:Comfortable twin room with good clean bathroom (although shower quite weak). Quiet location not far from motorway with ample parking.
Review 43:The room had no air-conditioning and was really hot. The hotel needs an urgent update. It has old furniture, old beds with damaged mattresses and is really uncomfortable sleeping. The food is absolutely terrible and out of the 70s. Not much positive to say about a hotel that charges as much as it does
Review 44:Parking was free and internet access decent
Review 45:The room had the toilet seat ripped off. The main lighting in the room was awful with a blown bulb. The toilet is positioned near the entrance to the shower so someone less agile could fall climbing over it. Upon complaining, I was advised the hotel would respond to me that day. Nothing has happened since. The cleaner actually accused my wife of damaging the toilet rather than taking responsibility.
Review 46:Checking out.
Review 47:Breakfast buffet - Wasn't too sure on arrival for breakfast what to do - as to correct etiquette. Would of liked a staff member to be around to just say "sit where ever and help yourselves" Or on check in to just say breakfast is buffet style. Just come to the restaurant and sit where ever and help yourself to all. Wonderful breakfast.
Review 48:Beds were very comfortable. Great food in restaurant and very good breakfast spread. Bedrooms, bathrooms very clean.
Review 49:Rooms were very small for value paid, bathroom not clean, not enough staff on at the bar (queuing for a while), very pricey for breakfast and for drinks. No natural light in the rooms.
Review 50:Breakfast was lovely and the hotel looks beautiful from the front.
Review 51:Drainage from the Bath was very poor, was mention, but should not have had to mention, hotels cleaning staff should have picked it up.
Review 52:Car Parking and assessability.
Review 53:Whilst the restaurant meal was nice, the portions were small. Service was slow to show to a table even though few diners were in the restaurant. The same at breakfast. Order taking was also slow at the table with a fellow diner at breakfast getting their order and breakfast well before I had even my order taken, despite me being there 5 minutes before. The room was tired and dated, and a carpet headboard is not very hygienic. The windows didn't really help block the sound from the car park which was right out side the room.
Review 54:Great Breakfast when I got it, and nice food. Staff were very pleasant, although the service was very slow.
Review 55:Rooms were outdated. Bed was uncomfortable. Other peoples hair on the bedding. Skirting boards had grime around them. Shower curtain was mouldy. Grouting in the shower was black.
Review 56:Best part about my two night stay was checking out. Friendly staff also.
Review 57:Throughout the night there was a strong smell of cigarette smoke in the bathroom that drifted into the bedroom.This affected our nights sleep and was really unpleasant.
Review 58:Nice clean room cosy bar area and lovely breakfast
Review 59:Got the wrong room type. The hotel is generally looking tired and the room felt particularly tired and dirty.
Review 60:Restaurant food was great in the evening and good for breakfast.
Review 61:I booked a night away for a romantic break after a hard few monthes and was looking forward to a nice meal and some peace however because of a big wedding the restaurant was shut and bar to busy to eat in. We ended up having to eat in our room at a cost of £5 extra. Then the disco started wich we could hear load and clear from our room. It was dissapointing as the hotel was nice.
Review 62:The staff and the hotel were excellent
Review 63:The room I had this time was rather small. The window locked shut and had to be fixed by the maintenance man. The hotel iron leaked and the ironing board fell to pieces... The fire doors are in very poor condition and do not shut properly or were left open... So basically, as in many hotels, a nice hotel slightly spoilt by lack of maintenance. I will stay again as normally it's pretty good.
Review 64:As usual, the hotel is generally good with excellent dinner and breakfast and good staff.
Review 65:The wifi was only reasonable after 10pm when fewer people were using it. The staff at breakfast were very slow to replenish anything on the buffet and had to be prompted. They did not appear short staffed.
Review 66:Clean, well maintained building and facilities. Friendly and helpful staff at reception.
Review 67:The food was awful, really bad and it is normally good. Dinner was overcooked and the desert unedible. Breakfast wasn't much better...surely the manager can see that the croissants are stale!!!
Review 68:I have stayed here many times over many years. It is in a good location and comfortable.
Review 69:One of the beds had blood on sheet and no mantras top. Ate there one night, bottle of wine was opened in the kitchen. There was a wedding event that infringed on everyone else in the hotel as guests didn't stay in the function room and when we wanted to order at the bar was told that they weren't sure they could give us a bar snack as they were too busy with a wedding..., would never stay here again! Rooms are dated and you can hear people in the next room. Not clean enough.
Review 70:rooms in the area we stayed were a bit motel like, compact but very fit for purpose. our friends stayed in a family room in a different section of th hotel and that was roomy and spacious
Review 71:staff and the foyer and restaurant were lovely, modern and contemporary
Review 72:I prefer fruit and yogurt for breakfast. However, there was only a few melon slices and tinned berries. Otherwise, various dried fruit was available. Even a tinned fruit cocktail would have been appreciated!
Review 73:Reasonable selection except (see What didn't you like)
Review 74:Spare pillow lumpy and uncomfortable. We stayed on the first floor overlooking the courtyard. Rooms noisy when weddings held at the hotel as people congregate outside for photos, ok in the Winter as too cold to stay outside for long but could be an issue in the summer. Those rooms would be best allocated to wedding guests and other guests given quieter rooms.
Review 75:Good location for us as visiting family round the corner. Rooms clean and good size with tea/coffee making facilities and hair dryer. Didn't eat in the hotel so can't comment on the food. Would stay there again when visiting family in the area.
Review 76:Nothing to complain about!
Review 77:Stayed in the hotel over Christmas as it was walking distance from our families homes. Room was spacious with lots of room even with a cot in there. Bed was comfortable & breakfast really tasty & well stocked. Staff was friendly & I think it was the manager walked round every morning & had a chat with the guest having breakfast. Will defiantly stay next year :)
Review 78:Bar prices were somewhat on the topside
Review 79:Good shower and bed. Excellent friendly service from all the staff. Room was rather cramped as a double but OK for me on my own.
Review 80:WiFi cut out occasionally no other issues
Review 81:This hotel has great character It is in a quiet location but close to major road routes. My room was spacious with a generous bathroom, TV, etc The water was hot The bed was comfortable which is important in a hotel The restaurant was very good with excellent food and very good service. Prices were reasonable and represented good value for money The staff were friendly and helpful
Review 82:Rooms extremely warm & bedrooms could do with modernising.
Review 83:Good location. Nice new clean bathroom. Comfortable bed. Staff very nice & friendly. Overall a good experience. I would definitely go back again.
Review 84:On the first day at about 3 o'clock in the afternoon we were told that the heating in the room would not be coming on until 5 o'clock. The room was quite chilly but we were going out in a short while anyway. When we came back the heating was on and the room was at a very comfortable temperature.
Review 85:We enjoyed our visit to the hotel very much. The room was very comfortable and the bathroom facilities were good. Breakfast was excellent and all of the staff were very friendly.
Review 86:Unfortunately fellow guests (wedding) held loud drunken conversations in the corridor
Review 87:All staff helpful and attentive making our stay a pleasant experience.
Review 88:Not much! Door mirror could have been cleaner, as could shower door, but those two small things apart, all else v.good.

Review 93:staff very friendly and most helpful as far as they were able . well trained .surroundings clean and comfortable. good breakfast choice.
Review 94:nothing
Review 95:we only used the room to crash after a local wedding so did not use any facilities, however our room overlooked courtyard that is used for weddings and staff were putting chairs out from 7.30am ( minimal disturbance) but were so quiet after that we didn't wake until just before checkout time even tho window was open. V comfy bed. Friendly helpful reception staff,
Review 96:The rooms don't have any air conditioning and there were limited fans so sleeping at night didn't really happen as you were so uncomfortable!

Review 98:Lack of air con, never stayed in a hotel that the rooms where so hot. Paid for executive room and all it was was a bigger bed
Review 99:The hotel in General is good
Review 100:The receptionist was rude on one occasion. On the 2nd day I couldn't recall the way back to my room, upon asking she replied with "what, can you not remember", which I felt was unnecessary.
Review 101:Location, price and availability.
Review 102:No air con in the rooms, but it was a particularly hot weekend and they did find me a fan, so not that bothered.
Review 103:I booked this Hotel at the last minute and thought for the price it wouldn't be that brilliant..... how wrong was I! This hotel and staff was just fabulous! Excellent value, great location, really friendly staff who found me a fan and a phone charger. The building and surroundings are lovely with fabulous decor and sculptures. the social areas were cosy and comfortable and our room was beautifully decorated and maintained. If I was ever in the Liverpool/Manchester area again I would actually go out of my way to stay here again. the staff also gave us directions to an excellent restaurant nearby.

Review 106:The room I looked at on the photos when booking was not the room we stayed in, the room we stayed in had a smaller bathroom which was grotty, the room itself had a dated slightly dirty look to it.
Review 107:Nothing really to like.
Review 108:The location was excellent as we were going to a family wedding in Grappenhall so Hotel could not have been more convenient Only fault l could find was that l personally found the rooms far too hot and that wAs with the windows as wide open as they could be.
Review 109:Breakfast shocking for £10 per person and on this basis would not stay again !! Something they would serve up in a truck stop , did not look appealing at all and ran out of hash browns !!!!!!! There must of only been 6 in for breakfast !!!
Review 110:Local to where we had go to .
Review 111:Bedroom decor was getting a bit tired in parts along with the bathroom but in fairness was excellent value for money.
Review 112:Friendly helpful staff. Comfy bed lovey breakfast
