Three nights in the Ramada Jarvis!

Advantages: The whole experience was an advantage.
Disadvantages: -

...Having just returned from what I class as a well deserved break I thought I would write about the Hotel me and my family have just returned from. I decided at the last minute really that I would book us a weekend away and began to surf the net as you do looking for not only a bargain but a nice place to stay to boot. The place I eventually chose with the help of my fiancé was the Ramada Jarvis hotel in Brighton, I have never stayed in a hotel in Brighton before having only visited once previously and having stayed in a bed and breakfast so I cannot compare it to other hotels in the Brighton area but I can compare it to other hotels throughout Britain and indeed Europe as I am fairly well travelled. The first thing of note with this hotel is that it has a modern look without losing any grandeur, I often find modern hotels look...

Review of Ramada Jarvis Hotel, Brighton

Jarvis Hotel, Bristol

Advantages: Good leisure club,nice rooms
Disadvantages: Unfriendly staff

...The Jarvis Hotel is a couple of miles north of Bristol in an area called Winterbourne. As a former country house built in the mid 19th century and with extensive grounds it has every going for it as a hotel. The Jarvis group have spent a lot of money refurbishing the place including an excellent Poolside leisure Club with swimming pool, spa, solarium and under-utilised exercise equipment. As is often the case the pool is a little small and you soon learn how a goldfish must feel swimming around the same extent of water only about 6 times your body length. The rooms in the old part of the hotel are quite spacious but you may find those in the newer part little better than a motorway lodge for size. They are clean and tidy and have the obligatory tea-making facilities. All rooms are en-suite. The bar is cramped but nearby is a huge...

jarvis chichester

Advantages: excellent location and service
Disadvantages: prices may seem a little steep if you want to stay sometime

...The jarvis is a great place to stay. Set in a fantastic location upon the south coast. You are approx 5 mins from goodwood racecourse and motor circuit. At the right time of year you can see the glorious goodwood week and the world known festival of speed and revival festival held at the race circuit bringing back the memories of yester year. You are also two minutes from Chichester town center and 30 mins from portsmouth and worthing. The hotel itself is very stylish and as you pull up to it you feel the class it has. The entrance hall is like an inclosed paradise island courtyard. The reception is like a small building as is the hall and corridors to all rooms and facilities. The resurant is very nice and the food is of the highest order. The rooms are very spacious and they are clean and tidy plus the dont look old and shabby like...

Jarvis Penns - Sutton Coldfield

Advantages: Pleasant surroundings, good food and leisure facilities
Disadvantages: room not to the standard of some hotels

...Towards the end of last year, my partner and I were looking for somewhere to stay for a short weekend break. After trawling through a lot of newspapers and websites, my mother suggested checking out the Jarvis web-site after seeing some cheap deals on Teletext. Up until this point, I did not associate the words cheap and Jarvis in the same sentence. I checked out their web-site for prices and availability, and contacted the hotel directly, who confirmed, that whilst they did not normally honour web prices over the phone, they would on this occasion. We booked to stay for a Friday and Saturday night at a rate of £49.98 per room per night including breakfast. The hotel is an old country house in large grounds, with its own lake, that has been converted and tastefully extended into a hotel with 170 rooms. There is a very large...

Jarvis International Hyde Park in Bayswater Road

Advantages: Close to Fun Bits of London
Disadvantages: Regular Price is Expensive

...Update: 10 Novemeber 2001: Well, it's not a Jarvis anymore. It's been a 'Ramada Jarvis' for a few months now. I don't know if this makes a huge change to the basics but there's a new decor outside - new paint and shiny new signs. It's still a big hotel on the Bayswater Road and they do still send me discount e-mails for weekend breaks. I'm too skint at the moment to do an investigation for Ciao! :-) I have wondered what the big hotels that line the Bayswater Road are like for a long time. I used to live in Bayswater a few years ago and therefore had no need of them. Now, as I ride on the Oxford Tube for at least four [more likely five these days]round trips a week to get to work, the hotels were recently becoming a bit of an obsession. 'Oh, if only I could stop and stay somewhere instead of travelling all the way back to Surrey,' I...

Review of Ramada Jarvis Hotel, Glasgow

The cost of high living

Advantages: Great location, good value if discounted
Disadvantages: Wheelchair access debatable, slow service

...I had always thought of the Jarvis chain of hotels as something quite expensive and therefore had never really considered them as an option for city breaks. I usually manage to find something cheap but reasonable and prefer to spend money on eating out while away than on a posh hotel anyway. Two weeks ago, however, we decided at short notice to spend a couple of days in Manchester, a city I don't often get to. To cut along story short, the combination of expense, short notice and the lack of vacant rooms across the city left us with the option of the Jarvis Piccadilly. The hotel's website listed double rooms at £95 down from £129, but by booking through a discounted rooms website we got the room for £50.00 including breakfast. The hotel is ideally situated for a short stay in Manchester; five minutes walk from Piccadilly Station...

Review of Jarvis Piccadilly, Manchester

In The Middle Of The Yorkshire Countryside...

Advantages: Great big rooms which are very clean and spacious
Disadvantages: Really expensive meals that are not very good at all.

...INTRODUCTION As one of my Christmas presents this year my husband treated us both to a nice weekend away, this is something we do on a regular basis but as he had taken the time to book and arrange everything it made it all the more special. York is known because of its influence in the Medieval times so visiting the city is certainly something to be talked about, we have often looked at going for a weekend but the hotel prices were so expensive we have always opted for other parts on the country that are that little bit cheaper. My husband had arranged for us to spend a long weekend in York, This is a place I have not visited for many years so I was really excited and couldn't wait to go as the four star accommodation he had arranged looked fantastic. We stayed at the Ramada Jarvis Fairfield Manor for three nights between...

Book it on-line for better deals

Advantages: Good location, excellent facilities, nice food and service
Disadvantages: Can be very pricey, small rooms

...Having experienced one good hotel in the Jarvis Chain, The Jarvis Picadilly was our choice for our weekend away to witness Spurs lose at Old Trafford. The footie may have been disappointing, but the hotel lived up to the quality reputation, save for a few minor mishaps. It is situated in the heart of City, a short walk away from the Arndale Shopping Centre, and overlooks Piccadilly Gardens and Tram Station, however, don't be fooled by any pictures you may see of this hotel, as where there was once rows of trees and shrubbery, there is now a building site, as the council and local firms busily prepare for the 2002 Commonwealth Games, to which Manchester is the host city. CAR PARKING The hotel has its own free car park, albeit in limited numbers - it is accessed via a little side street behind the hotel. The driveway is very...

The Rank Ramada

Advantages: I don't have to stay here ever again.
Disadvantages: I ever stayed here in the first place.

...Ramada, Glasgow City, 201 Ingram Street, Glasgow G1 1DQ. I'm updating this review as I received a response from Ramada. Jarvis, some of the contents of the letter I have placed at the end of this review. My sister and I stayed at this hotel on Saturday June the 9th 2007, we were in room 309. The hotel is being renovated at the moment; however, I don?t think you?ll want to stay here even after the renovation once you?ve read this review. To start with I?ll give you an overview of the hotel and Ramada Jarvis. The following information was taken from their website. ☼ ☼ ☼ ?Founded in 1990 by John Jarvis and David Thomas, Jarvis Hotels plc has established itself as one of the UK's leading hotel companies with a portfolio of over 60 hotels in around 50 locations throughout Great Britain. In 1996 the company...
