Booked several rooms at Byfords over 6 months ago for a special celebration with friends this month. Due to the refurbishment works, two of the rooms had to be changed which wasn't a problem. The rooms were clean and tidy and beautifully furnished with soft towels, comfortable bedding, small fridges, tea/coffee making facilities, TV's and floor standing fans (the rooms were hot and stuffy so these were needed plus the radiator in one of the rooms would not turn off which made it very uncomfortable. We did report this but nothing could be done). There was a non-working lamp in one room and a light bulb missing in the bathroom. These are small details but for the price we paid for the rooms I would have expected these sort of things to be checked. We were unable to use the car park as this is currently used for contractors vans and skips. The workmen tried to be as unobtrusive as possible but they started arriving at 7am which disturbed some of us. However we did have a Byfords voucher which enabled us to park free in the nearby Budgens car park. We ate in the restaurant in the evening. The menu is not very inspiring so we all opted for the signature curry which was poor, watery, lacking flavour and depth. Breakfast was good however. All the staff were friendly and tried their best to be helpful. Overall I could not rate Byfords as a premium venue.
