Hotels near Living Springs Community Church, Cannock

We stayed here last night and I wasn’t impressed at all . Firstly we had phoned up to ask for a room with a bath , as I have fibromyalgia and we never stay anywhere without a bath as it helps me go to sleep easier . We was promised our room had one . When we arrived we realised our room had no bath . Asking to be swapped to a room that had one at reception, we was told the hotel was completely full , they had no staff to change the room and so we had to stay in the room we had been given . Down stairs in the reception area and bar is quite modern and nice . Our bedroom was we equipped with a fridge , kettle and iron board , but the decor was very dated … a room that looked to have been attempted to have been modernised on a low budget . Wood chip type walls were still a feature and the toilet , which was a separate room , was grubby and looked unclean . The room also smelt of cat wee , I have no idea why , but it did . The bar was extremely short staffed and we felt very sorry for the one bar staff that was rushed off his feet . We couldn’t even have a coffee before we’d went to our room , totally understandable from the bar staffs point as he was so busy he’d turned the machine off , but from a hotels point if view it was poor … you desperately need more staff to accommodate the large hotel you have . Not having a bath left me with a restless night , with little sleep . The breakfast was good though , definitely a plus point . I didn’t like that there was signs asking if you’d paid your parking as hotel staff wouldn’t inform you of the charges what happens to those who can’t read ? A nice £100 fine is what they’ll probably get … come on novoetel , you need to tell and warn your guests , you have that responsibility to look after them . This hotel is not very friendly for people with conditions , All in all I don’t think we’ll be staying in a novoetel anytime soon , it wasn’t the best .

What a fabulous experience at this Holiday Inn Express! From the moment we entered we were welcomed with cheery staff who were always smiling and only too happy to help. The Hotel is very clean! Obviously the carpet will have some marks but you can see that they have gone to great lengths to try and remove these. Our room was so clean. The bed linen was pure white and the towels were almost new and very clean and fluffy. (The only downside are the room doors) As the rooms all have to have fire doors it is a little stressful every time a door has to be slammed shut! Be it morning, noon or night there is no option but to slam the door as it doesn't lock otherwise (Room 131 which I did report) Breakfast was all you would need and different options to accommodate everyone. I am Coeliac and was given GF cereal and GF bread toasted separately in the kitchen and covered in cling film to bring to the table obviously reducing the cross contamination issue. What a great relief! My only criticism would be how long it takes to order food through the day, this takes a while and reduces the availability of staff to serve from the bar, but not a biggie. Would definitely recommend this place and highly commend the staff for such wonderful Customer Service obviously guided by good Management.

I stayed here during my 2023 John O'Groats to Lands End ride, when I was accompanied by my wife and 13 year old son, who were acting as support crew. The Oak Farm Hotel is a relatively large wedding venue just off the main road.  It is very accessible from the M6 with a spacious and sprawling car park.  We shared an ensuite family room with double and single bed. The bathroom was large and a little dated – unless you like the 90s vibe - with bath, shower and very noisy extractor fan which sounded like the room was about to take off. The staff were very friendly and helpful. A traditional breakfast buffet is available in the bistro with a self-service cooked breakfast and only a few healthier options.  Due to the family aspect of this hotel, we found the dining room  - and indeed our stay - to be a little noisy with young children enjoying their adventure away. Bistro was closed in the evening when we stayed so we cannot comment on dinner. However, the menu looked appetising. We found a McDonalds and other fast food or family friendly outlets within easy driving distance of the hotel. The bike stored was locked away in the board room just off the reception area at the front so it was easily accessible in the morning.   A remote controlled gate secures access to the venue.

Very clean relatively newly renovated rooms. The hotel is in a quiet green area which conveniently close to the city centre. The breakfast was very pleasent and good value. The staff are friendly and the room was very clean. Overall this was an excellent hotel.

The location is a bit distant, but it is closer to where we are going, so I chose this place. There are costa coffee, frankie & benny ”s, McDonald's, we ate here for 3 days. Staff were friendly. Breakfast was similar to other hotels. Cleaner
