Reception and bar staff were great. The breakfast however was a different story altogether! The food was, to be blunt, pretty awful...overcooked eggs and beans and only just cooked sausages and bacon. Not what i expected from this hotel chain

8/10 Very good

The staff at the Clayton were friendly and very helpful. They found me an alternative nice room on a quiet floor after I waa originally booked in a room on a floor full of noisey hen and batchellor party goers. Breakfast very nice and plenty to choose from. The hotel is central and just 2mins way from the train statiob. I would definitely stay at this hotel again.
