My two sisters and I ( all of very mature years) spent an overnight spa break at this lovely hotel.Our room was excellent - lots of space with a roomy en suite . The beds were very comfortable. The views from the windows were amazing - over the lovely lakeside and park estate. The facilities are very good - swimming pool with sauna and steam-room plus jacuzzi. The spa treatments were good. Our evening meal was great ( particularly the fish pie) as was the full breakfast next morning. The final word is about the staff . Brilliant. Nothing too much trouble. Manager Chris ensured we were able to check in early and special thanks go to him . Other reception staff and those in Charlie’s bar were also excellent .

I wish I could review the hotel and restaurant separately because I'd give 4/5 for the hotel and 0/5 for the restaurant. The one positive shared by both was very friendly and helpful staff. They can't be faulted. The hotel room was good and much like as in the photos. The quality of the room wasn't quite as expected, e.g. cheaply decorated and the window surrounds were pretty dirty, but it was fine and made a reasonable alternative to a Premier Inn. Unfortunately the food in the restaurant was dire. Alarm bells rang when I saw the menu - that many dishes and meat at that price doesn't bode well. I played safe and had a veggie lassagne but it had a nasty, ”dark” background taste. The accompanying salad was fine but needed a dressing or just some oil because it was bone dry. 2/5 for dinner. The breakfast selection was limited and a cooked breakfast is clearly the thing here. After cereals I had scrambled eggs on toast. After a very long wait (which was odd because the only other customer received their breakfast long before us), I was given the worst scrambled eggs I've ever seen. The white & yolk weren't properly mixed so there were yellow and white swirls, and the eggs were horrendously overcooked. They were solid. To compund things, the toast under the scrambled eggs wasn't buttered. I'm not a fussy eater but a slab of hard eggs on dry toast is impossible to enjoy. How can anyone get scrambled eggs on toast so wrong? 0/5 for breakfast. Sadly, it will be the PremierInn for me next time because the restaurant was dire and the hotel would have to be amazing to compensate for having to drive somewhere else to eat.

I am not one to write reviews, but my experience compelled me to. I had no plans of even passing the night at Barnsley Travelodge but I did and I truly enjoyed it. My room was thoroughly cleaned and just simply stunning. The environment was really conducive and the staff were so helpful and friendly. It actually seemed like they enjoyed aiding their lodgers and that made me really happy. I was supposed to just spend a night, but I extended my stay and I have no regrets. Be it business or leisure, I would definitely come back to this travelodge centre. So, big ups to the amazing staff and the company.

On Friday 8th July, we were booked for three nights at the Campinile Wakefield. We have stayed at this hotel before & whilst it's not the best, it's handy for work stayovers. Arriving on the Friday night (8th), We immediately noticed that a lot of Motor bikes were parked up in the hotel car park, not an issue apart from the fact the bikes were all occupying car bays which I felt was totally inconsiderate & we were lucky to get a space. More annoyingly, the back end of the car park was closed off for no visible reason which was ridiculous when the hotel was so busy. We collected our keys which was after 2100hrs, taking the first flight of outdoor stairs, we noticed large groups of males all over the walk ways, talking loud, smoking & shouting. Once in our room, showered & unpacked , we could clearly hear the noise from outside on the walkway below. We rang reception twice this night, the noise was unacceptable, their security came over twice. So onto the saturday night, again returning from work after 2100hrs these groups of males again outside shouting, smoking & watching stuff on their laptops. Another of our friends who was staying over, went to reception to complain, the receptionist said Security would come over, the noise continued and when we went to see what was happening, unbelievably, the Security were stood with the males, all watching a boxing match on a laptop, laughing & carrying on, when asked why the house was still going on, we were told there was only a few rounds left, not acceptable from security. We've never experienced anything like it, absolutely disgusting and no consideration for anyone else in the hotel. Returning on the Sunday evening, we noticed the males were using the closed off area of the car park to play football. No idea what goes on at this hotel but it's a disgrace and I guarantee they have lost our custom. Would we recommend this hotel, 100% NO.

Fantastic location for all the bars, yet quiet our room was spacious with a corner window , for some reason an extra bed, a small settee type chair, full tea and coffee and kettle, a small but perfect fridge , large bathroom with shower tbh we were very impressed as we'd only paid £65 which was almost 20 quid cheaper than booking.com and included breakfast if we are ever in Wake again we would stay here for sure
