We stayed at the Paragon for one night and would not stay there for another!! The staff were brilliant and we had a warm welcome however the nightmare started when we got to our room. Upon entering, the carpet was stained and filthy, hand prints on the wall, mastic in the bathroom was turning yellow, 10inch tv (Promised an LCD... More

If you are an Hyacinth Bucket type character then forget it, the hotel bedroom we stayed in (242) is not for you, yes to be honest the room was on the small side, it was NOT a dirty, grotty bedroom though, the sheets and towels were all clean and fresh, BUT in all honesty it could do with a lick...

I stayed at the Paragon on Thursday May 16th for business reasons. I chose the hotel because it was near where I had to be the following morning but if im honest I wouldn't choose it again. The room was far to small for a double bed and to get to the windows you had to crawl over the bed.... More

On check in I was met with a fairly abrupt girl. No welcome, not even a 'good afternoon'. When I asked for proof that my credit card number she had typed in to her PC would be destroyed, I thought she was going to spontaneously combust!! This hotel is old and tired. Its in serious need of a facelift, but... More

After booking this hotel for £40 a night the next day I read the reviews, I felt the blood slowly drain . The reviews and the photos were horrendous and dreaded telling my partner. I even went to the extent of trying to change it through the booking company . On arrival we were greeted by friendly staff that went... More

I went here with my boyfriend and from the pictures on the website it looked beautiful but basically it was tiny rooms, not very clean, claustrophobic inducing windows that hardly open and a shower which is like in a gym or hostel, also the tv only had 3 fuzzy channels and was tiny. The main points to consider when booking... More

We arrived and I must say all staff I encountered were more than helpful and willing to go the extra mile. The problem I had with were with the food and room. The food was bland uninspiring and lacking flavour or imagination. My husband had quite the upset tummy after eating here. The room was clean and functional, but extremely... More
