森林旅館 The Forest Hotel

The ambience, clean lines and very friendly staff

Chef sent my dessert out (tarte tatin) so black it was charred; unbelievable. I tasted it anyway however it was inedible and I had no choice but send it back. I was offered a coffee and an apology but for a rosett rated restaurant this was disappointing. Also no mirror over dressing table in bedroom, a very basic functional thing that tends to get overlooked.

Friendly and helpful staff. Excellent room, clean and with good facilities. Good quality food with an extensive but expensive menu. However, there was a good menu of the day which was excellent. Nice bar area which was busy the day I was there. Would recommend.

Wireless internet was not possible in my room as this was at the far point of the range of the router. Access is possible in most areas. If you are there on business I suggest you make sure you have a room with a strong signal.

A pleasant and spacious bedroom etc for the price. A good dinner, with interesting and well presented food that merits its GFG and AA ratings and a sensible and fairly priced wine list structured to get you to what you are looking for. Easy to reach the NEC but a long way away from the usual grim conference experience!
