I had a fantastic stay at Norton Grange Hotel, and the absolute highlight was the spa! It’s incredible to have access to such a great pool, sauna, steam room, and jacuzzi for the same price as a Premier Inn or Travelodge, but with so much more value. Add in a lovely breakfast, and it’s an absolute steal for a relaxing getaway.
The spa is well-maintained and a true luxury, making this hotel stand out. It’s rare to find such great facilities included in an affordable stay, and it made my visit feel much more special.
A Few Things to Consider:
• Event Nights Are VERY Loud – If there’s a wedding or party, expect super loud music that can go on until 1:30 am. The hotel warns ahead of time and makes it clear that no complaints will be accepted, so if you need a quiet night, check before booking! The other nights of my stay were peaceful, but the wedding night was a challenge for sleep.
• Rooms Near the Stairwell Get Noise – My room was next to the stairwell, and the fire door slamming shut every time someone used it was quite disruptive. Light sleepers should request a room away from high-traffic areas.
• Breakfast Could Use Some Healthier Options – While the breakfast was generous, most items were fried (fried eggs, sausages, etc.). Adding scrambled eggs and smoked salmon would be a great touch for those looking for lighter choices.
Final Verdict
Despite some noise issues, I loved my stay. The fantastic spa, great breakfast, and unbeatable value make it an excellent choice
