Birch Hotel - Heywood

Would recommend for a mini-vacation

Comfortable room, friendly staff, enjoyed a good breakfast, and the convenient location made it easy to reach the nearby Castleton Train Station for exploring.

Everything was as expected.

The staff was accommodating, I loved to be here.

Nice building and rooms with a bath. Efficient staff and easy location in a nice countryside area!

Very small bathroom.

Consider checking the breakfast times in advance if you have an early schedule, as it's a great buffet but starts at 7 am.

The use of the nearby leisure centre was an asset.

I did not enjoy the weekend breakfast as it wasn't freshly cooked, unlike the one served on weekdays. I did not like the fact that the grout and sealant in the shower was very mouldy and needs to be replaced. I did not like the fact that we were given a double room when we booked a twin. I did not like the fact that we had to move rooms twice as the bathroom in the second room we were offered smelt very badly of a blocked drain.

Food in the restuarant was very good both for evening meal and breakfast.

Facilities in what was described as an "executive" room were very poor. Such as no bedside tables, no phone, no way to turn off lights from bed.

Totally recommend for a brief retreat

Charming atmosphere, friendly staff, combined with a delicious breakfast in the restaurant, created a good stay, improved with the convenience of nearby Castleton Train Station for easy exploration.

Couldn't fault.

The peace away frm teenage children for me and my partner

Good Breakfast

Very old.Paint work on corridor doors very bad dirty and chipped.Walls in bedroom dirty.

great park views and easy access to nearby attractions

The easy access to heaton park and hopwood woods made my city strolls lovely. While the hotel has a lot of potential, it needs a little love and affection in certain areas.

Aisle is totally close, without fresh air flowing, then it's smell not good.

Very reasonable for price

Hotel has tired furnishings and decor. Lots of small things need to be repaired, replaced or redecorated. Almost tatty in some respects

The room was spacious and clean. We appreciated the cozy tea and coffee making facilities, and the friendly staff ensured we felt welcome. The breakfast was a pleasant surprise, with plenty of delicious options to fuel our ride the next day.

Some areas could use a bit of updating.

Staff were very friendly. Wifi was free which is always irritating in other hotels. Food was good although somewhat saltier than my taste. The room was nice and comfortable with a decent TV if I wanted to watch. Despite proximity to motorway it was reasonably quiet

Chair in my room was about to collapse.Unfortunately the hotel had a slight run down feeling about it. It really needs to be brightened up and have a fresher cleaner feel about it. Some of the other residents had a very colourful vocabulary

Price and location.

Resturant not open on a Sunday evening.
