This motel is conveniently located near the city center, making it easy to access all the attractions and eatery's. It is also situated opposite a major hospital, which can be useful in case of emergencies. The rooms are neat and tidy with comfortable beds. The facilities include a fully equipped kitchen, providing a great opportunity for cooking. Additionally, there is parking on site, ensuring a hassle-free experience.

The room at Southgate Motor Inn was spacious and had a warm and cozy atmosphere. The kitchen was well equipped, making it easy for us to prepare meals. The location was fantastic, being centrally located yet surprisingly quiet. The bed was incredibly comfortable, ensuring a restful night's sleep. We will definitely choose to stay at this inn again in the future. I highly recommend this hotel for a pleasant and comfortable stay.

United Kingdom, April 2023

New Year’s Eve at the cosy inn was great! the rooms had plenty of space, with comfy beds and a modern bathroom. the location was ideal, easy to reach and close to everything. We even enjoyed a spa bath. the best aspects were the smart TV with Netflix and the fully equipped kitchen, where we cooked up a storm with ease.

The occasional ambulance siren from the nearby hospital, but it didn't bother us too much. It was great to have on-site parking, but it fills up quickly so arrive early.
