Reviews and Ratings

Feedback about The Highfield Hotel from previous guests about their experience.
Review summary
Based on recent reviews
Powered by AI
The Highfield Hotel is often chosen for its convenient location near the airport and proximity to family. Guests frequently highlight the surprisingly spacious rooms equipped with amenities like an iron and ironing board. The blackout curtains ensure a good night's sleep, and while some guests have noted that the bathroom decor could use updating, the presence of a pub on site serving food and a sizable car park adds to the convenience.

Adequate stay with minor issues

cute staffspacious roomneeded amenitiesdated roommismatched furniturelow bed
The staff provided a warm welcome and much information. My room was more spacious than I anticipated, a nice surprise. The room contained everything I needed for my stay.
I found that the room was somewhat dated. The furniture seemed mismatched in style and color. I also noticed that the bed sat quite low to the ground.

adequate stay with minor drawbacks

large roomnatural lightold decorbright light
the double room was large , it had everything i needed. massive windows allowed natural light , this made the room bright , which i appreciated.
the bathroom decor seemed a bit old , the carpet had a stain near the bathroom door. i noticed a bright green light illuminating the room all night , it was from a fire exit sign.

black moldcold room
I was REALLY disappointed. The room felt old and not well kept. There was BLACK mold on the bathroom ceiling, a VERY unpleasant discovery. The room temperature was also a major issue. It was freezing all night despite my efforts to adjust it. A whole wall made of windows did not help at all.
