Distinction Heritage Gateway Hotel

“Clean comfy bed. Ideal for a stop over”

Recently spent a night here. Had a lovely spacious room on the ground floor. Nice toiletries. A couple of restaurants nearby. Excellent buffet breakfast. Friendly bar was open for a nightcap

Property is large and just off the main road close to a fuel station with ample free car parking. The room given to us was a triple bed occupancy and was a really big spacious and clean room, although very dated and slightly musty . It maybe a considered a little expensive considering the location and quality.Lighting in the room was poor and one could not draw the curtains back as privacy was affected. The beds were too high narrow and not comfortable. It looks like the room has been recently renovated but then who has designed a small bathroom where the toilet paper holder is literally at your face level when sitting on the toiletseat or that no dustbin is kept in the bathroom. One of the reception girls was not at all obliging, refusing to give us an additional room heater to warm the freezing big room (which the inbuilt one was ineffective in doing). She asked us to personally come down to collect extra towels for the third person which ideally should have been provided without us even asking considering we had paid for triple occupancy. She wasn't willing to give extra sugar satchets etc saying one should got o the restaurant oneslef and pick it up. Overall the service was bad .Basically don't expect any kind of room service as she would say I am all alone so please come down and take it. The breakfast buffet was decent though. Be aware this hotel is patronised by conducted tour and big group bookings so breakfast time it can get crowded.-

“Dated and in need of upgrading”

We stayed here for 2 nights with our birding group, we would never have chosen it on our own. The grounds are nice enough but the rooms are very old and dated with uncomfortable beds, stained carpets and awkward shower/tub. Plug sockets are few and inconveniently located and the WiFi ranges from OK… more

We stayed here for 2 nights with our birding group, we would never have chosen it on our own. The grounds are nice enough but the rooms are very old and dated with uncomfortable beds, stained carpets and awkward shower/tub. Plug sockets are few and inconveniently located and the WiFi ranges from OK to very slow. We ate in the restaurant for breakfast and dinner and we found the food very mediocre (eggs partially cooked, pasta swimming in sauce, vegetables over cooked, etc). The place can also be overrun with tour buses, I presume because it's cheap. I wouldn't stay here again.
