Hotel Review: Holiday Inn Royal Victoria, Sheffield, South Yorkshire, England - August 2014



http://ift.tt/1BC3Imf I stayed one night at the Holiday Inn Royal Victoria recently as I was in Sheffield for a wedding. I booked a room at this hotel in advance via booking.com and got a great price of £78.50 for two people for one night bed and breakfast. When we got to our room it had two double beds in it, so technically could have slept four. The hotel is a magnificent old building, but the bedroom was in need of refurbishment, it looked and felt old, there was also no air conditioning. The Victorian architecture of the building is plain to see and some of the features, such as the old staircase are magnificent, but in many areas paint was chipped and redecoration was badly needed. The hotel reminded me of 'The Shining' in some respects! The staff were excellent and helpful, and the breakfast buffet was superb, although the restaurant was a little too busy, and we had to wait 10 minutes for a table. All in all, this hotel was good value, but the bedrooms let it down. I probably won't stay here again until it has been refurbished. The rooms at the Holiday Inn Express next door are much nicer - see my review of it here: http://ift.tt/1rmg7Z5 . To read reviews about this hotel on TripAdvisor click here: http://ift.tt/1z0QOdo .
