    great stay but some room for improvement

    The bed in our room was exceptionally comfortable, ensuring a restful night's sleep. I appreciated the powerful and consistently hot shower, which made for a refreshing start to each day.

    The cleanliness of areas outside the room could be better managed.

    delicious breakfast
    creaky floorboards
    slightly grubby bathroom

    We had a lovely stay at Weathervane Hotel By Greene King Inns. The location was perfect for our visits to Alton Towers and the surrounding area. The staff were incredibly helpful and engaged with our grandson, making us feel very welcome. Our room was clean and comfortable, and the breakfast spread was fantastic with plenty of options.

    Creaky floorboards were a minor issue.

    powerful shower
    generous portions

    Perfect for families looking for comfort

    We had a lovely family room which was warm and spacious, and best part, the shower was powerful and provided lots of hot water. Breakfast was delightful too, so many choices and the portions were generous, we all left satisfied.

    Not exactly a bargain but decent enough for what we got.

    Friendly staff and great location

    The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming from the start. Our family room was clean and spacious, with comfortable beds that ensured a good night's rest. The hotel's location was ideal, just a short drive from local attractions, and having a popular restaurant right next door was a huge bonus. the decor in the dining area could use some improvement as it felt a bit dated.

    The Weathervane's dining vibes are on point! I loved grabbing a drink outside while enjoying the atmosphere. The food in the attached pub hit the spot too, with a decent menu for both adults and kids. Plus, the staff were all lovely and seemed to bustle around with a smile.
