We recently stayed at The Village Hotel for our wedding, which both the ceremony and the reception was held there. It was absolutely fabulous, the venue was perfect and totally blew us away when we saw it dressed.
The only negative (which was soon resolved) was the hotel room that we were originally allocated, was very small and it was at the back of the hotel, which was far from ideal. It was soon corrected to perfection by the incredible wedding planner Tina Galasso and Doretta, the House Keeping Manager though, allocating us family rooms straight away, they were both incredibly supportive, as was Tina '2' who took over from Tina G in the afternoon...the staff are absolutely first class.
If I was to offer prospective couples any constructive advice who are thinking of booking their wedding here is to insist on a family room for the extra space and going one step further - Senior Management of The Village Hotel chain, invest in creating a bespoke bridal suite that offers plenty of space for the bridal party because the standard rooms are simply, not big enough!
The beds and pillows are comfortable and the bathrooms have a contemporary fit out in keeping with the rest of the hotel. The food is awesome and the new sports bar to the right of the reception is great however, as the restaurant is situated at the rear of the bar and its all open plan, it does get really noisy so if you like to eat in a quiet space then you would probably be disappointed, so be mindful.
There's plenty of parking and it is free (a real benefit today as many hotels charge) and there is disabled access to the right side of the entrance steps that takes you to the patio area (a god send when taking all your wedding things up to your room, so make sure you utilise it!).
Our wedding day was absolutely perfect and Tina Galasso, the staff at The Village, the beautiful venue all played a MAJOR part in that, so a HUGE HUGE thank you to you all.
If you are reading this review with a view to planning your wedding, you really can't go wrong and its a great size too...We would recommend it to anyone, check out the pictures of the 'dressed rooms' absolutely stunning! :)

For a two night stay, it was nothing but hassle. Windows are hard to open and close - bathroom window was already semi open, letting the cold air in, leaving a cold draft throughout.
There were no telephones in the rooms, you had to download an app or go online to speak to an advisor - BIGGEST FAIL EVER. Waiting an hour and a half for someone to respond to a simple request of having an extra couple of pillows. Got no response and gave up and went downstairs to speak to someone - the pillows still never came. The App or online service kept timing out - so did the “free internet”, which we both ended up just using our own data. Was just inconvenient not being able to pick up the phone and speak to someone...
The bathroom was compact and nice enough for a short stay. However we were greeted with a dirty shower/bath, dirty floor and the extractor fan/top corner had cobwebs. Could deal with the cobwebs but the dirty bath/shower, not so much. I also asked if this could be seen to. No one came, nor did we have our room serviced when we requested it.
They may have been short staffed and busy but first impressions were poor.

Stayed the night here for an early meeting the following day. The restaurant come bar area was crowded,noisy and not comfortable so I decided to eat out.
The meeting room was hot and stuffy all day and although maintenance was called and made a couple of visits it never improved. The space in the room was not used to its potential but the saving grace was the large bed which was very comfortable and the room was quiet which is a big plus.

Stayed one night with my friend who was getting married the next morning.
All the front of house staff were amazing, more so when the groom had one too many!
Staff couldn't do enough, room was spotless and comfy and the breakfast was very good.

The hotel has a Starbucks, fitness centre, shared workspace, and spa facility on site. The hallways are poorly heated and the walk to your hotel room can be very confusing and not ideal with someone carry a large suitcase. The hotel rooms are spacious and clean, however expect noise emanating from other floors and could disrupt light sleepers. The check in is self service which is convenient and the wifi on site is quite good.

Decent Hotel, funky rooms but , a little tired in places, carpets, paint etc by and large though a decent hotel with a very good gym and spa. The food is OK but a little pricey for what you get. I'd certainly stay again.

We have used this hotel on a number of occasions and we have always found the experience first class.
The rooms are comfortable and facilities are also very good.
In addition car parking is easy and the hotel is easy to locate

Attended my friends wedding and stayed over for 2 nights the rooms are lovely ,but dark as the there is no central light just a floor light in the corner . They did an amazing job on the wedding ceremony and meal,but kept us waiting around for ages to start the evening while they put the dance floor down .This needs to be down at the start so guests don't start to leave .
