Stayed here many times and like this hotel a lot. However just stayed 2 nights and the room did not get serviced after the first night.. Quite disappointing. Good cooked breakfast. Will continue to stay here on my trips to Sheffield

Pleasant overnight stay
Great hotel. Friendly staff, with nice breakfast. For me the bed is a bit hard and also a pet hate is a fixed head shower. But otherwise rooms are excellent.

Amazing Food!
Great location, excellent service and outstanding high quality food. Hotel was very good value for money but as its owned and run by the University, it still has an institutional feel about it. However, that doesn't detract from the room comfort, ambience and high service levels.

Great all rounder
An unfussy hotel but spotlessly clean and comfortable. Staff went over and above to accommodate our needs. The breakfast was delicious and beautifully presented. We come here every year to attend the Hallamshire hospital and wouldn’t stay anywhere else.

Brilliant place. Brilliant staff. Definitely 5*
Lovely relaxed place to stay.
The reception, bar, breakfast area all spotless and exceptional service from all members of the staff team.
We loved the help yourself area on each floor - it contained fresh milk in the fridge along with tunnocks chocolate snacks.
There were top ups for your tea/coffee making area and plenty of biscuits too.
The room was clean and well maintained.
Really comfy bed, a Nespresso type coffee machine with free pods, TV, loads of plug sockets,bathrobes....
The bathroom had a huge shower and twyfords toilet and sink. (Proper stuff).
Suburb location so nice a quite.
Breakfast was great... all the continental stuff you could wish for and a hot option ordered from the menu. I had the full English my wife had eggs Benedict. But lots of other options available.
Only downside, there is no lift as its an old building but the ground floor has plenty of accessible rooms.
All in all a fantastic place to stay, if we return to Sheffield this is where we will stay.
