Stayed here bank holiday weekend on booking asked for twin beds and walk in shower as I have walking problems and use a wheelchair. When we pulled up in the car park we were met with 15 or so steps. My husband had to go and find out how to get in with a wheelchair This was a lift at the side of the hotel and only just fitted a wheelchair with a leg extent ion and my husband Getting in and out of the lift was small ramps and the walk to the reception was along a paved area which in parts was uneven. Arriving at the room it was a double bed which was higher than the wheelchair so I couldn't get on Husband went to reception it was the ONLY room with a walk in shower so they had to split the bed. The housekeeper saw my predicament and got a lower mattress out of store . Reception said they did not have lower beds Even the bar area was paved so wasn't really suitable for a wheelchair and we had to move bar stools as there was no direct path we have stayed in the village hotel at Hull before and that was 100% better catered for disabled

We got a good deal here through booking.com, £116 for two nights B&B. large hotel easy to find, although Satnav hasn't caught up with De Vere/Village swaps. Large car park with plenty of blue badge spaces. There are a lot of steps up to the front door, but a lift is available at the side of the hotel. The hotel was very busy with at least three large functions going on, a wedding, a 40th birthday and a hen night. Our room was on the second floor in the main building which saved a walk from the annex. There is a large pool and excellent spa facilities. We ate in the Verve grill the first night and had an excellent meal, delicious ribs and a very tender fillet steak. This grill isn't open on a Sunday as they do an all day carvery until 6.30pm. We ate in the Victory pub the second night, good food and the same ribs are actually a couple of quid cheaper here! However this bar is noisy and several large screen TVs are constantly on. We managed to get some seats in the lobby area which was much quieter. As the hotel was so busy there was a large queue for breakfast on the Sunday, the staff said that no one had been before 9.00am and then everybody came at once, maybe a good tip would be to come early for your breakfast. Breakfast was pretty good and set us up for the day.
An enjoyable stay but look out for a good deal.

Hotel easy to get to, straight off m66, building old style rather than the "modern box", in serious need of tlc, exterior looked shabby, our upper deck room was large but looked like something had happened previously because there was a paint job done that did not match colour wise or hide inadequate plasterwork! The bathroom was not upper deck as compared to other upper deck rooms we have stayed in, the toilet I assume is very old and took forever to fill, the shower was pitiful and not what you would expect paying for an upgrade, the tiled floor had broken tiles all across one part of the floor. As said we have stayed in a few upper decks and this bathroom appeared to be an attempt (failed) to make it look upper deck.
Pub exactly what you would expect in a village hotel and comfortable area.
Staff were excellent and friendly throughout.
Nights were not great, because fri and sat there were "great nights out" events and as we were on the 1st floor at the front we were woken by (mainly) very loud women between 1 and 2am out on the terrace which is below the rooms,1st night Thursday was really peaceful and we slept well on the very comfy bed.
Food and service excellent as always with a village hotel.
Location good, go to bury, it's a 20-30 min walk, lovely town and very good market.
Breakfast was ok about same as other villages but make sure Sunday you go before 9 as the queue when we came out was ridiculous!
Overall good stay but the hotel needs work.

There are some really great things about this place but too many niggles to encourage us to return.

The staff we met were all friendly and efficient and check in was smooth. The Starbucks on site was a bonus and we ate in the Victory bar three evenings with no complaints - except very noisy at times. Breakfast was great but due to queuing at the weekend we decided not to bother on our last morning. Easy to find straight off the motorway and lots of parking made things easier and it's surprisingly close to Bury town centre which is brilliant for shopping / cinema / bowling etc.

We booked an upper deck upgrade and on our initial arrival were pleased with the spaciousness of the room. It was, however, very dark - the small window and the very dark decor meant it became stuffy quite quickly. We did have a fan in the room but it's not ideal to sleep with a fan running. The basic cleanliness was fine but there were huge old cobwebs on the ceiling in several places plus two clear greasy hand prints on the hard wood headboard. The hot drinks package was a nice touch although didn't always have everything in it and only one wooden stick for stirring - not ideal if you want to make use of tea, coffee and hot chocolate throughout a day - the addition of teaspoons would be a good idea. Bottle of mineral water very useful though. Bed was plush and comfy but we did struggle to sleep due to lots of noise inside and outside - music thumping until early hours, people shouting in the smoking areas outside and doors continually slamming inside. Our window looked out at the front of the hotel directly above the designated smoking area so our room smelt of cigarette smoke more often than not. TV was fine - Sky package not great as lots of channels (even those readily available on freeview) were not available to watch.

The real asset to our stay, though, was the pool! It is big and quiet if you time it right ie during adult only times. Steam room, sauna and hot tub were fabulous - all very clean.

At over £120 per night b & b, it's doubtful we would choose this again for a couples break but if you're staying because of a function eg hen party, wedding etc. then I think you get a good deal with the fab breakfast, pool & gym plus all the good outlets.

So, as I say ... mixed feelings about this one but probably just that we chose the wrong place for a quiet couples break!

Wifi is the only good thing. Telephone was unplugged in room - not helpful cos I booked a wake up call! - thankfully I noticed - even though I'm blind! TV has tinny sound. Cash point has a fee. I doubt I will stay again!

Very good experience at the Bury Village would recommend a stay at the village to friends and family. very clean rooms and excellent service, didn't get chance to try the pool but will defiantly be bringing my swim suit next time.

We have happily stayed here many times over the years as it is in the perfect location for visiting family and shops in the area. The service is always very good as is the food. The rooms are clean and well equipped. The only criticism we have is that the carpets could benefit from a good clean and the toaster needs replacing!!!!! Overall, an excellent hotel.

I really enjoyed my stay at the Bury Village hotel, just off the motorway then 5 minutes to shops the other way. Staff are 1st class and friendly, we ate in the bar for our three nights reasonably priced. Having stayed in a village hotel before elsewhere I asked if I could have a front room, lady did her best by giving me a side of the hotel room, the reason I asked is that the decor is quite dark and they have heavy blinds and at the back of the hotel It felt quite dull and I felt the other rooms could see in . So would definitely advice this, but that is the only thing , I can't wait to stay at there hotel again. If you plan it right you can visit on one of the entertainment nights, seems something is going on most months. Oh and breakfast is very good and plenty of it

The steak sub was the best I have ever had, the quality was impressive and it looked so appealing!!!!!! You could tell someone had put passion into creating my dish! The service was good, all happy to help. The pub was very clean and attractive and well looked after!

My friend and I ate in the Verve Restaurant in the Bury Village. The food was just lovely. I hate lovely artisan crusty bread rolls, all of a different variety, with olive oil and balsamic vinegar, while I waited, Lovely delicious crusty fresh bread, really addictive. I had double chicken with the most fantastic barbecue sauce, I did ask and was told the secret ingredient was Jack Daniels, wish I could make something as delicious at home. The dessert of Baileys cheesecake was equally gorgeous as was the ice cream with it. The staff were so lovely and accommodating, nothing was too much trouble, my friend doesn't eat meat but will eat fish, the staff said that if she wanted she would also be able to choose from the fish and chips on the pub menu. It was a very relaxing ambiant environment and we felt in no hurry at all. A lovely evening all round, special thanks to Tina!

I took a last minute booking here as I had to stay in the area on business unexpectedly.

I didn't have the best view in the world (bricks and mortar!), but the room was spacious, clean and well equipped. The bed was great for my bad back and very large.

I didn't use them as it was an unexpected booking, but I did check out the leisure facilities which looked great (especially the 25m pool).

The food I had was very average and at business hotel prices (there is a pub carvery across the road but that looked quite underwhelming too).

A very business orientated hotel, but gave me a great night's sleep with free Wifi and just what was required on this occasion.

This is the second village urban I have visited, and I love them, you feel like you are in a private complex, welcome is fantastic, I asked if I could have a room nearer the front and the young lady tried for ages to accommodate and yes she succeeded, room was great. I very rarely eat at hotel restaurants due to cost but I love the bar and bar food and it was so reasonable. As in all their hotels they have a snack cafe which is really good. The staff and cleaners are all so friendly, nothing is too much trouble. Breakfast is very good and plenty of it, I enjoyed it so much I am now looking into all village urban hotels for my august short break. What I really love about them is they are so easy to find, the last two (warrington and bury) are just off motorways in there own little village and close to shopping centres, they also have fantastic entertainment on certain dates. Just love everything about them, oh yeh it's free parking and plenty of spaces too and free wi fi through out

A perfect hotel is you want a gym and or pool for your stay, as it has a proper 25m length pool and full gym. The bar was friendly with simple, but good food. My room was excellent … but a long way from reception. It was difficult to find initially, but the benefit was it was quiet at the back of the hotel.

Stayed here whilst in area and had a great time. Room large with good television and hot drinks available - en suite large and refined with good quality toiletries. Opening windows essential as warm weather and no air-con, but gave good ventilation and little noise. Breakfast very good standard, the only disappointment being a lack of breads choice - just sliced for the toaster.

Do check out your room beforehand as some have view of brick wall, although did make it quiet. V comfy bed but dinner disappointed from what sounded a promising menu. Branding is about the V so gets a bit wearing, but OK for an overnight business trip.

Stayed here as it was er-route on a long journey so being just off the motorway it was handy. Reception was nice and new refurb part looked lovely. We were told that we were in the 'quiet' part. What the receptionist meant was we were in the old part. Room was ok, big etc. The bathroom could have been cleaner. Blue toilet cleaner stains on the floor and dusty. It wasn't horrible, just wasn't as clean as I'd like. Free paring and breakfast came with the room for £53 on a Friday night- so can't complain really!

My wife & I had a very pleasant stay at the Village Resort in Bury. A modern Hotel in a very good location, just 5 minutes from Bury town centre & the famous Bury Market. Our stay included breakfast, which I was looking forward too after a couple of drinks in the Hotel bar & the pub just down the road. I would recommend the Village Resort as it has plenty to offer for everyone.

The Village Hotel in Bury has re launched the Verve Grill - its menu is a surprising mixture to suit everybody's taste - I ordered Thai spring rolls expecting 4 small rolls and your standard dipping sauce but oh ! what a surprise 2 hand made chunky spring rolls with Asian salad and a dipping sauce that you would have thought you were in Thailand wo! what joy - succulent spiced chicken in a crunchy pastry a real treat. My wife ordered the fillet steak for her main with pepper sauce - a British classic and it was ! For my main I ordered the Pollock on a fishcake bed with minted peas and a side of sautéed greens - wonderful. The sweets looked very delicious a friend of ours who was in the restaurant was eating Eton Mess when we arrived - it looked and she said it was tremendous. We finished with coffee and I must compliment the waiter service so friendly and attentive. The Verve Grill is back and it will be a pleasure to all who partake - well done the Village.

We had a living social deal for a Sunday lunch for two . The lunch was for five courses with a 30% off a bottle of wine. What a lovely dining experience !! Excellent waitress service with a lovely five course meal which was fresh home cooked food which mostly tasted delicious. The soup was tasty, there were multiple fresh salads and prawn cocktails, pasta and sauces cooked to order by the chief, a three meat carvers with Yorkshire pudding and tasty hot assorted vegetables, then after all that a beautiful chocolate mousse, fabulous cheesecake,fresh fruit salads.........our only disappointments were the not to to standard Yorkshire pudding.....and the beef was overcooked and tough. Apart from that, the service, the food, the surroundings, all great value for money even at full price. We shall be back.

I'm glad we went before I read the TA reviews as I might have thought twice ! Clearly some TA comments are only about other aspects of the business that may need more management attention but unfortunately those TA comments may sway restaurant custom away tho- so we'd like to give a positive airing of our experience for the Sunday Carvery Lunch service.
Our experience was very good for a 1.30 pm booking on 20th July..Asking reception to be directed to the carvery was met with prompt politeness & direction.The entry & paying desk for the restaurant was well covered by a very professional young lady who was doing greeting & take to tables & drinks orders.All staff at the food stations + those who served drinks , removed plates etc were all very polite & friendly & good at their jobs.
The food variety range & choice & quality for all courses was absolutely excellent.
We all enjoyed the experience & would come again.
