As a Law student at the University of Buckingham, I recently toured the Mount Pleasant campus accommodation, and I was thoroughly impressed. The atmosphere is lovely, with super clean and tidy facilities. The rooms are spacious and come in a variety of sizes to cater to different tastes and needs.The staff were incredibly welcoming during the tour, making me feel right at home. One of the perks that caught my attention is the provision of two meals a day from Monday to Friday, which is a great convenience for students with busy schedules. Additionally, the free gym and swimming pool are fantastic amenities for staying active and healthy.There's also a quiet study area, perfect for getting some focused work done. The location is excellent, with close proximity to lecture halls, making it easy to get to classes on time. Overall, Mount Pleasant seems like a comfortable, affordable, and well-situated accommodation option, and I'm looking forward to potentially staying there.

We always try to stay here when attending MotoGP and this year (2022) was the first year for 3 years (due to covid) and I have to compliment the hotel and staff as it seems to have undergone a refurbishment. Rooms were great, service very good, for the price you pay (c£170 for 3 nights). However, there is a huge damper on this year's experience as I have tried to book for next year and whilst online it shows as unavailable, I called and managed to secure rooms....great....until I saw the price come through on the email confirmations - £924 for 3 nights per room...are you being serious? I mean,....seriously? Utterly horrified, and when I questioned it, I was met with a "take-it-or-leave-it" attitude. Shocked and very disappointed as we have stayed here a good few times over the last 10 years....no points for loyalty or returning customers then.

So I was advised to book this room as it was close to a wedding I was going to. The room was old and dated. It needed a freshen up, paint job, minor repairs in the bathroom and new furniture. Bed wasn't comfortable it gave poor bad support and the pillows were flat. The reception did take it's time, when another couple was behind me they bothered to bring out another staff member, they wanted a 50 pound incidental charge which was very annoying and there was no prior warning beforehand. Now I have to keep an eye they will give me my refund. Breakfast wasn't included and I had to pay 9 pounds extra. The staff member didn't know how to give me a copy of my card transaction. I had to take a photo of the merchant copy. When I got back from the wedding there were about 6 men drunk and still drinking and a few were shouting abuse at me when I came in the entrance as I was wearing a dinner suit. That wasn't pleasant. The room was boiling hot. The ventilation did nothing and they told me Aircon didn't work. They said use the portable fan and the fan head was dirty. I just thought I am glad I am only hear for one night. I rarely tell people don't go stay somewhere but this dated hotel that is just grim and doesn't deserve our money. I hope this helps others. Take care and press like if you found it useful.

The staff were very helpful and friendly. The food was lovely and the rooms were clean. If you have poor mobile request a downstairs room as this hotel doesn’t have a lift, however their amenities are good - the swimming pool and gym. I would recommend this hotel.

Nice place rooms decent size. Arrived with my partner and pet dog, booking was easy and friendly. Had to pay £50 holding fee which was fine but they should explain before booking. Nice pool and good spa. 24 hour bar which was nice. Room cleaning was bad, had the clean my room hook on the door for 2 days and no-one cleaned my room. So took it off and cleaned it myself. Apon booking I had to question why they took money out of my holding fee, that is when they explained it was a £10 fee for the dog per night... Why don't you tell customers this before booking??? Not that it was a problem but real bad service.

We had a great couple of days stay, the bar and restaurant service was excellent!. Really nice breakfast, proper sausages!. Okay selection of ciders, would of been nice to have an Aspall or friels cider, rather than strongbow and dark fruits, but still not a big deal. The spa was very relaxing!, jacuzzi, pool and steam room was really nice. Only thing that let me down abit, was the grounds. Overgrown hedges and litter in carpark, with me being a groundsman, I noticed this right away. ( grounds need attention). But when all said and done, I had a great time and will definitely be returning next time I'm in the area.

When staying in a hotel you mainly look for 3 thing, good food, good shower and a good bed. The double bed was two single beds put together with a very noticeable dip in the middle of them and the shower only had piping hot water, the cold water didn't work. I didn't get a sense of satisfaction for the price that was paid. The food was as expected. . .

Okay so.. The room overall looks a little outdated if you're planning on taking your partner here for 'something nice'. But hey it has it all, a comfy bed, a kettle for a quick coffee(yes there is breakfast in the morning if you want it), decent bathroom and it looked clean apart from the bath.. That had dust..so it just made me wonder what else hasn't been cleaned properly. I decided to get some room service.. Now this is where I did not feel welcome..at all. When the man heard I wanted to order some food.. He took the longest sigh as if I was asking for a lot. He was not helpful during the order and the whole experience felt as if he just wanted to get it over and done with. This does not reflect on all the staff here because I did call again to add a drink to my order and the young man that answered was far more polite..(and my interactions with others during my days there were very positive) but the previous person alone was enough to ruin it. I actually didn't want to say anything negative to him incase he did anything to my food. Nevertheless an okay place if your here for a course and just using it to sleep. Lastly here's a picture of the chicken burger I ordered I mean I know its from the grill but I didn't expect it to be crispy charcoal black.
