De Vere Hotels in generalNewest Review: ... clicked the button, and off I went! These offers are usually for weekends only, and the hotels are obviously used for conferences during the week. The hotel was very easy to find, being just seconds off the M56 and the clear map on the hotel website really helped. First impressions were good, the foyer was clean and inviting, the staff were courteous without being intrusive. The room was just what I expected, comfortable, not spacious, but not cramped either! The decor was slightly dated, as was the overbearing dark furniture, but there was nothing wrong with it, just my opinion I guess. I had received an email a couple of days before my ... more |

I have stayed in several De Vere Hotels over the last few years, and I still go red at the thought of one of them. More of that later! In my opinion, they offer good value for money and are great venues for a weekend away. However, my recommendation is to join their mailing list. I have had a couple of fantastic deals over the last couple of months, taking up their offer of £19 per room deal. Yes, that's £19 per double room. Ok, breakfast isn't included, but can be added for just £7.50 which is pretty good value when you consider that it is a help yourself, full English breakfast along with all the trimmings. I stayed at Daresbury Park, Warrington ... Read the complete review

Very long winded, but worth the read! Have been a few times now, and I must say I'll avoid going again wherever possible! My last visit was the last straw! Went for a special evening by invitation only - started off well enough and we were seated without incident, and then the nightmare began! We paid a lot of money for a ticket for a 4 course meal and entertainment, and it was a total waste of money in my opinion. Firstly there was some sort of soup - I have no idea what flavour it was meant to be, as it was that bland I ended up adding every imaginable seasoning just to give it some iota of taste, and then came what I refer to as cat food. Allegedly it was ... Read the complete review

The De Vere Hotels are a rather lovely "chain" of hotels which can be found all over the UK. They are not your cheapest brand of hotel prices range from approx £110 right up to £400 or so per night. Deals can be found all over the place though, I found my deal at lastminute which was £100 for b&b. The Hotel we stayed at was The De Vere in Southampton which was okay to look at but nothing special (basically a big brick building!) It has a massive conservatory on the end of it which is where breakfast is eaten. I have to say that it was the nicest breakfast I have had in a UK hotel with a wonderful variety of foods to eat which included, porridge, ... Read the complete review

The De Vere hotel chains in my opinion offer something a bit special for a hotel stay and are great for a weekend away. They have 12 different hotels to choose from, spread around the country. The most beautiful in my opinion is Cameron House on the shores of Loch Lomond. The others also feature amazing building and several are in stately type homes. A lot of them feature golf packages/wedding packages so there is really something for everyone. My husband and I stayed at the De Vere hotel in Cambridge a year or so ago, he took me for a surprise weekend away and I was very impressed with the hotel. He firstly choose De vere's as they are known to ... Read the complete review

The De Vere Hotel Herons Reach is located about 2 miles from Blackpool town centre - set in its own extensive grounds its a world away from the neon glitz that is the promenade. I had booked one night, a Saturday, booking though www.lastminute.com I got the room on a Bed and Breakfast for £75 - the hotel was quoting me £110 to book direct with them. The hotel sits well back from the main road, surrounded by a gold course, gardens and lakes. Overall its a pretty location, quite and relaxing. Check in was reasonably efficient, just one couple in front and I was served within a few minutes. The girl on the desk didn't quite manage a smile, ... Read the complete review
