The Wheatsheaf Hotel, Sandbach

What a stunning place to stay! From the room, to the bar, to the restaurant, to the staff! Superb! I would like to give a special shout out to Amy. She greeted us upon arrival and had the warmest welcome - this immediately put our hopes high that we were going to have a pleasant stay. Again, at breakfast, her warm smile and personality was there! Amy’s boss…..she needs a pay rise! Wonderful lady. Would highly recommend staying here and I know we will be back.

Plus points: Good breakfast. Quality ingredients and well cooked. Friendly and prompt welcome. Convenient central location. Not cheap but good value for money. Negative points: Room was above the bar and the noise seeped through to some extent. Not a big problem but not ideal. On the morning we were due to leave we were told we'd need to move our car before 10am because the lines were being repainted. I can't believe this wasn't known about the day before and didn't appreciate having to interrupt my breakfast to move it.

Brilliant get together with family (cousins reunion) for the second year in a row. The hotel is lovely, food is great and the staff are all amazing. Dan Lloyd and Liam Barnes were especially helpful. We will all be back next year. Sandbach is also a great place to visit.

We paid for a double superior room however the room itself was very small. The bathroom with the roll top bath was bigger. The lamp on the desk didn’t work and there was no milk for the hot drinks. The room itself was extremely extremely hot and with one fan it just didn’t make a difference so we didnt have a good night sleep at all. The room and hotel itself were lovely and very nicely done out.

Amy was the best I had an issue with Booking the room online so she sorted it . Our room was fantastic so comfortable , food great and it’s rare to get to see colleagues passionate about their work . Best experience for a long time. Well done all. Ian. Sue.

All the staff we encountered were friendly and efficient, we loved the decor in the hotel, bar area and room so first impressions were good. The big bed was extremely comfortable, but the room had little natural day light and the room had an extremely small window. The carpet in the room had a couple of small stains on it so hard wood flooring might be better, the over bedspread also had a small dark stain on it. The shower leaked all over the floor and the bathroom tiles were extremely slippery and dangerous after one short careful shower. One of the bathroom tiles was loose and it felt unstable and the grouted cracks between the tiles didn’t look the cleanest. Maybe consider the flooring and showers in these rooms as well as providing free bathroom slippers. Also the stairs were extremely steep so anyone with mobility issues might struggle. Car parking is tight and limited. Our room in the annexe was uncomfortably warm and it wasn’t a particularly hot night and the room had a fowl smell on entry. We later discovered it was the scented oil sticks in the room. Breakfast was fine.
