North stafford hotel

Advantages: Close to town centre,20 mins from alton towers
Disadvantages: None

...to choose from,and with alton towers being a mere 20 minute drive away it was perfect. It was called the north stafford hotel and it was situated opposite stoke on trent train station,which I imaging would be ideal for those arriving buy train. The hotel boasts 88 bedrooms and is one of many britannia hotels On arriving we parked our car in the car park outside the hotel were there was plenty of spaces to choose from,but my hubby was fretful of leaving his baby there all night but his mind was soon put at ease when we were told there was 24 hour cctv on the car park. Entering the hotel I was quite taken aback by how grand this hotel looked,it was very clean and the staff seemed pleasant. After checking in swiftly, we were given the option of a smoking/non smoking room,and told what times breakfast was served from in...

Review of North Stafford Hotel, Stoke-on-Trent

The North Stafford Britannia Hotel

Advantages: 20mins from alton towers, thats it
Disadvantages: Everything. Awful place, website terribly misleading

...Reading the review before mine, clearly this family had the better-side of the hotel. Do not waste your money on it. I have stayed in a few hotels while travelling, here and abroad. I wanted to take my partner away for his birthday to alton towers (i bought two-day passes) and searched online for a nice hotel to enjoy our weekend away in. I came across the North Stafford Hotel and it appeared to be quite luxurious and smart and within my price budget. We stayed 2nights for £180. On arrival we found the hotel carpark but it was fee-payable, the receptionist explained that did not apply to us but that whenever we wanted to go out we would have to get her to credit our pass for the barrier to go up (?). What a hassle! We were not told of any elevators (which we saw only once we'd reached the top floor) and had to lug our bags up 4 flights...

Decent hotel in the middle of Stafford

Advantages: Nice rooms, friendly service, good food
Disadvantages: Location might be noisy at the weekend

...INTRODUCTION Back in the UK again, I had some training courses to attend and so several of us from work got together to go on one in Staffordshire. Having found this hotel on the net, we all booked into it with eager anticipation of a night out before the course the next day. It wasn't to disappoint; amid all the banter, eating and drinking, I managed to keep my head and so present to you my experience of the hotel. LOCATION This is slap bang in the middle of Stafford town centre and so very handily located. It's only a five or ten minute walk from the train station. I ponced a lift and it wasn't hard to find once we got into the town centre and followed the directions. There are small signs pointing to the hotel which you follow, all the way round a winding road and finally into the hotel car park. THE ROOM...

The Garth Hotel, Stafford

Advantages: Local to shops and facilities. Good restaurant and bar onsite. Free ample parking.
Disadvantages: Walls are paper thin. Staff seem unhappy to be there. Damp, musty rooms.

...I have had to write this review, as I have only just arrived back from The Garth, and have all my niggles (and good points!) fresh in my mind. Myself and my boyfriend were unable to afford to go abroad this year, due to the fact that we are saving for a house, so decided to go to Alton Towers on a leisure break. The Garth Hotel seemed to be ideal; Bargain B & B inclusive of entrance fee to Alton Towers.- £170.00. Upon arrival(Saturday), I was most impressed, as I am very fond of landscape views and tidy perimeters. The gardens had quite a big span and the car park seemed immaculate. That was until we went round to the rear, and found the entire floor to be covered in broken glass and all the walls smothered in graffiti. I started to think that the building was not quite as picturesque as first imagined! The entrance hall to...

A Cosy Place To Rest My Head

Advantages: good price, nice place
Disadvantages: -

...I had a week's holiday and decided that for that week I wanted to go somewhere and actually get away even if just in the UK. I decided to go to Chester for a few days as I have never really got to see the town properly and it is a pretty place to visit. I started looking for places to stay on quite a low budget as I didn't have enough to be spending £100 a night. I looked up laterooms.com which came up with a number of options but after narrowing it down judging by price and location, I opted for the Stafford Hotel on City Road as it seemed to be in a quite central location and I wanted something more traditional than the typical Premier Inn or Travelodge. I arrived in Chester as I decided to leave the car behind and travel by rail. I have visited a few times before but normally by car so am not good with the street name around there...

Lee Stafford saves your hair over night!

Advantages: revives damaged hair, easy to use, nice packaging, professional care
Disadvantages: somewhat expensive

...Lee Stafford saves your hair over night! What is this review about? Today I am reviewing the "Over night Sleepover Treatment" from the "Poker Straight" Line by Lee Stafford. I needed something to really revive my hair, and this little bottle of miracles did the job just fine - thar's why I think you need to know about it! Why did I buy it? I bought Lee Stafford products for the first time about five years ago when they were available in a drug store here in Germany. Sadly the line was discontinued over here and I was delighted to find it at Boots on one of my holidays in England. So whenever I am in England I buy a lot of Lee Stafford products. I noticed the Overnight Sleepover Treatment at the shop because the bottle was so much bigger than all the others. I also always like the bright packaging of Lee Stafford...

Review of Lee Stafford Overnight Sleepover Treatment

Lets play Poker with Lee Stafford!

Advantages: Works!
Disadvantages: None at all for me!

...Boots will be the end of me! I seriously must ban myself from going! Just lately I've done so much shopping in there as I've been getting vouchers for £2.00 off certain branded products. I've took advantage of this to the maximum and bought loads of stuff in the hope it will be better cos it's stuff from the higher end of the market than the usual stuff I pick up in the pound shop (whatever is there!). I'm not a big fan of hair products and usually wear one at a time so appreciate a good one lol! This product, Lee Stafford Poker Straight Flat Iron Protection Mist stood out to me cos I always use heat protection spray if nothing else on my hair when styling it but this offered to help me straighten as well as protect and my goodness do I need every bit of help I can get! My hair is straight and flat at the root, has a fluffy mid...

Review of Lee Stafford Poker Straight Flat Iron Protection Shine Mist

"Have fun, look wicked and smell BEAutiful" Lee Stafford

Advantages: Actually works :)
Disadvantages: Will run out one day :(

...Lee Stafford Poker Straight DeHumidifier This is a small pink bottle of spray for your hair. After you have straightened your hair you spray this on it and it stops your hair from frizzing / curling and stops your hair being affected by the humidity, which can make people's hair go really frizzy sometimes. The bottle this comes in is a hot pink bottle with a transparent pink lid. The text on the bottle is shiny white and overall I think the bottle design for this product is attractive and cool, very nice looking. The bottle contains 50ml, or you can buy a bigger bottle with 200ml. On the bottle it says "HeLPS KeeP YOUR beautiFULL HAIR POKER STRAIGHT when the humid Air wants it to FRIZZZZZZZZZZZZ" I came across this spray one day when I was looking for straightening products in Boots a while ago. I saw this and its low...

Wife in the north

Advantages: Some humour
Disadvantages: Not much happens

...As a wife in Northumberland myself, I was keen to read Judith O?Reilly?s book, wife in Northumberland. I had seen the book for sale in Waterstones but thought I would borrow it from my local library. There was a long waiting list (obviously others wanted to read a book with a local connection) After a wait of 3 weeks I was very keen to start reading! The cover of the book with its cartoon family suggests that this is a humorous book. To confirm this there is a quote from Jenny Colgan saying that she howled with laughter at every page. This sounded like my kind of light read. However this book was not what I had been expecting. There is a lot of humour but it is also a very poignant and moving book. The book is written in diary form and plots Judith?s reluctant move from London to north Northumberland. The opening entry describes...
