The shower intermittently went from normal to scalding without warning so my young children got scalded by it. The breakfast were not good, the food was overcooked and even when we came down early for breakfast one of the days(07:30) the food was already dried out. The buffet breakfasts at premier inn and travel lodge is way better than your breakfast , I would expect a lot better from you since you are charging a premium for staying there ( plus having to pay extra for the breakfast) I have been in the hospitality business for over 32 years, so I know there is no excuse for these things.

Have stayed at the Macdonald resort often and have always been thoroughly happy with our rooms This time I was disappointed with the room we were booked into. Though it was clean and functional it was very old fashioned. and felt as if the area we were in was more like staff quarters.

For my room, it was at the back of the complex so heard trucks all night long travel down the Motorway. The bed was large but felt I was falling out when I was near the end of the bed. The room was clean well maintained but slightly dated. Pints of peroni £6.90

Would not recommend to stay
So disappointing considering the amount we paid for the night. Was not worth it at all. Our room - we could hear every conversation next door were having like we were in the same room. The shower and bathroom was awful. The water was either scalding or cold and trickling out of the shower. Breakfast was awful. The side plate and milk jug were dirty with food stuck on it and tea stains. Ordered tea for two and got a pot for one and when asked for more took ages to come. No rush about the staff at all. Cleanliness is not great in the hotel. I would not recommend to stay and will not be staying there again. Then we went to use the swimming pool. The fire alarm went off no one moved asked a life guard was not the fire alarm and where do we go. He said it’s for another building if you want to leave you can but you can just go into the pool if you want? Some families were leaving in their swim suits and others stayed? Ridiculous. So disappointed considering how fancy the Macdonald resort think they are. Very out dated. Needs a good clean. Unfortunately never took photos at breakfast as never had phone but staff were aware of the dirty dishes.

Wouldn't rate it 4 star
Cold breakfast every morning, served on cold plates. also kept running out or eggs’ potato scones etc. long wait to be seated, 15 mins., standing at the top of the stairs ( with 4 collapsed discs in my spine.) finally get your tea, no milk. Next day no toast, more cold food. Service was so slow. Staff are run off their feet trying to cope. I said to an older woman serving at the food counter, maybe need more staff. She implied it was our fault for all turning up at the same time. I politely asked what is the best time to come for breakfast..to avoid this..she said, don’t turn up at the same time. Hotel is not 4 star. We’ve stayed in many in Dubai etc. dated, overpriced, understaffed. I wouldn’t recommend this hotel to anyone. We spent an hour in the bar, a large crowd of people finished their drink and left. The cluttered 7 tables weren’t cleared at any time during our hour. Even though the bar staff had gone from 1 to 3. And no one waiting to be served. I couldn’t get my small shop mobility scooter to my room, as we were on a split level landing..lift was up, or down 9 stairs! Room was pleasant if a bit old..and it was clean. Warm enough. Sorry to be so disappointed. It was a treat fit my hubby 82nd birthday. Hotel is central to shoot etc.
