Tara from Caterham United Kingdom;GB gave The Weather Vane a rating of Good

"For the price we paid the hotel was excellent, the rooms were of a really good size and cleanliness and I was very pleased with the service from the staff. As the web site said Alton towers was just a 20 min (max) drive away. An all together hassel free enjoyable stay, and would reccomend to anyone."

"Value for money was excellent, and the size of the room."

claire from stanley United Kingdom;GB gave The Weather Vane a rating of Excellent

"Very good value for money. This hotel had an excellent location if want to be on outskirts of Stoke. Excellent location for Alton Towers theme park, literally a ten minute car journey. going back to Alton Towers in july so will be booking in to this hotel again."

"This accomodation was fabulous. the web stated that it was a short distance to alton towers and it literally was. also the room was hot and had hot water at all times. The staff were very helpful and the hotel was in close reach of Stoke centre with a small taxi journey away. also was very clean. it also had a lovely pub/restaurant next door and food in there was excellent and again very good value for money."

"There were no aspects about this hotel that i disliked everything was spot on and in my opinion a very good hotel for the money you pay."

"Child friendly, great restarant"

"Rooms could of been a lot cleaner (have been here 3 times in the past and this was far the most dissapointing) Air condidtioning in the rooms would be good when its 85 degrees outside."

Anthony from Stafford United Kingdom;GB gave The Weather Vane a rating of Good

"Check in was really quick and girl on desk was very friendly and helpful. Didnt eat or drink their as we were going out but I have eaten there in the past and it was fine. Room was really big and had all the facilities you'd expect in a 4* hotel. Recently stayed at the Crown Hotel in Chertsey and paid 3 times the amount it cost to stay at the Weathervane and it was nowhere near as good in any respect. I would recommend the Weathervane as being a friendly, clean & value for money experience, it exceeded all expectations"

"Good location, easy to find"

"Bit noisy in the morning but nothing worth getting upset about, my hangover was probably the reason"

Great facilities in the room such at towels, shower gel, tea/coffee, hairdryer and central heating. Rooms were very spacious with double bed and couch."

"The room was very spacious, clean and had all the necessary facilities such as tea/coffee, towels, tv and heating. The bar/restaurante was adequate for a meal, few drinks and socialising."

"Nothing."
