Best Hotels in Upholland

Just returned from a 3 night stay at the Britannia Bolton hotel having read reviews I was not looking forward to our stay but was pleasantly surprised when we arrived, reception and corridors all spotless and the room we received was clean, comfortable and bathroom looked like it had just been upgraded, the staff were all pleasant and looked after you very well. Our morning started with a lovely breakfast good selection of cooked items as well as cereal's, toast etc not a large choice for evening meal but the price you pay couldn't complain.

The hotel is not really in Chorley, being located to the south west and some distance, from Chorley. It is situated on a motorway service area which is only accessible from the northbound M6. Exit is onto the northbound M6 too. This means that you have a rather long trek along the motorway if you are intending to access local amenities - or CHORLEY. It's fine as a stopover if you are actually travelling north on the M6. The hotel required more information at check-in the most do these days and they insist on you registering a debit/credit card at reception for a room deposit. No money is taken unless you damage something but they have carte blanche to take money and argue with you later should they so choose. Very few (none in my recent experience) hotels take such measures these days. In the era of fraud and identity theft it is never ideal to hand over information of any kind. The room was very comfortable and well appointed but the shower was very slippery. There were notices in the bathroom but some effort to make the bathroom less hazardous would be more useful. Overall there are better alternatives locally that do not require card details and are much easier to get to by car, and indeed public transport or cycle. Go elsewhere for the same standard of accomodation without the hassle.

Centrally located within walking distance to the town centre, shopping centres, cinema’s, fast food outlets and free hotel parking located in the hotel grounds. The room was large, spacious and very clean. Well appointed with sound proofed windows and good block out curtains. The sleep quality was great as the room was so dark with the curtains shut and the room was so quiet. Super comfortable bed with lovely linens and nice pillows in a climate controlled room - bliss. The air conditioning worked really well, especially during UK’s heat wave. The room was equipped with everything that you could possibly need for a comfortable stay. Bathroom was very clean, good water pressure and thumbs up for environmentally bottled toiletries, which were very fragrant & lovely to use. Bathroom was well lit and had a decent hair dryer. Swimming pool & gym facilities were available, however you had to book a time-slot of when you wanted to use these facilities – which wasn’t an issue, you just had to be a little bit organised. Breakfast in the restaurant was fresh & plentiful, waitstaff were very polite and friendly. Bar was small and intimate with excellent bar service and a nice range of beverages to choose from. All the staff were fabulous and very accommodating. Faultless stay and we can’t wait to return.

Really nice decor and relaxed bar space. Nice rooms with bottled water by the bed and rainmaker cleaning utensils. Great selection of drinks behind the bar. Really friendly staff - our night team was Reece and Vicky and they accommodated us beautifully. Also I totally whipped whipped chicken at pool in the bar!

We spent New Years Eve and have to say, it was a brilliant way to bring in 2024. Our rooms were lovely. They were clean, and beautifully presented. When we arrived at the Blazers Suite for our Carvery Dinner, the staff had prepared a table really close by, as I had mentioned when booking that a member of my party was a bit unsteady on her feet. The receptionist said there would be somebody ready to help her to carry her hot meal, and there was a lovely member of staff at the back of the queue, who was more than happy to assist with choosing and carrying the plate to the table. The food was delicious. I particularly enjoyed the salmon and prawn starter, wrapped in the lightest pastry. The DJ was good, and the dance floor was packed all night. At midnight there was a rousing chorus of Auld Lang Syne. Only one little quibble, to knock a star off. I checked breakfast and check out times with the receptionist when we checked in. I had previously rang to check this information and was told breakfast 8-10am and check out 10.30am. I thought it worth another ask, as in previous hotels these were later, but the times were confirmed as above. I was surprised, therefore, to overhear the same receptionist mentioning a late check out to another guest as we were checking out. I queried this, and she confirmed both breakfast and check out were later, it being New Years Day. She said she had not been told about the change early enough, and apologised. After such an enjoyable evening, and a lovely breakfast, I was not in the mood to complain. However, the added half hour for breakfast and checkout would have meant we could spend a bit more time with my family, who had travelled from the Wirral to celebrate with us.

I stayed here last year and gave it 5 stars We have dropped a star for two reasons If you want a hot drink from the bar you cannot put the charge on the room and have to pay separately at the machine this is very complicated and slow if you are tired and I required help from two helpful members of staff Also our room on the first floor was very noisy we could hear everything next door constantly However this is still an excellent example of the brand and all the staff are brilliant

Was a good night sleep despite our worries when first arriving very buisy outside main roads and shopping centres but inside the room it wasn't too bad was clean and comfortable everything we needed had to get some extra tea milk and sugar but nothing to much trouble
