The Griffin Inn

Quiet spot bedroom and bathroom clean. Food amazing it really was. Recommend. The only gripe if you could call it that is that the bedroom was too hot!!,

Staff rude

Fire alarms went off at 1.30 am hotel unmanned on a evening pretty much left to our own devices to evacuate and call the fire brigade

My wife and I Stayed one night here. The food was ok but not worth what they charge. We were in bedroom number 1 and the room was ok but radiator was full of fluff and the wallpaper was falling off behind it. The bed was terrible. We got no sleep as the mattress was horrible. So hard and uncomfortable that we were so sore and backache aswell. Not good at all.

Lovely hotel and a very clean and tidy room

Car park has around 20/30 spaces which got full quick as it is a busy pub. Rooms very clean and spacious

The service was absolutely rubbish. Waited over an hour and half for food. On my second night i couldn't get food from the pub ( had to grab a sandwich from local shops) Didn't bother staying the third night.

Myself and my fiancee went to the griffin Inn St helens for a meal yesterday 25th of November ,we had the festive set meal menu. The food was terrible,both meals were lukewarm,the sprouts were like ball bearings,my fiancée's potatoes might as well have been rocks,the waitress noticed and asked if everything was OK, my fiancee showed her the problem with the potatoes and she replaced them with more rocks,the whole meal was processed food and came straight from the microwave, my meal was also lukewarm with a vegetarian pie that was completely tasteless,the soup which was also barely warm and just about covered the bottom of the dish with the tiniest thinnest slice of dry bread I'd ever seen,the only thing that was remotely edible were the desserts;the waitress called sian, was a nice young woman polite and friendly ,I don't expect to pay over £60 and be served such ghastly food,we will not be going to the griffin for a long long time after this.

We booked for 3 reasons - a quiet overnight stay, somewhere with parking and breakfast the next day. Don't expect a quiet overnight stay if you're booking for a Saturday night - the venue itself is lovely but is near to a local housing estate. The noise levels are way too much - inside and out. People all shouting at over each other. Live music which goes on until gone 11pm. The food was delicious but our idea of a quiet meal was ruined by the group of 8-10 people who deemed it acceptable to all talk and shout over each other despite being in close proximity. Parking isn't always available. You can park in the housing estate if you're comfortable with that. We didn't as we weren't local to the area. No breakfast served at all despite being advertised on ********** Bedroom - cracks in the ceiling, a missing drawer within a set of drawers, tatty headboard, even a small stain found on the mattress bedsheet. Bathroom - clean and spacious with lovely shower area but despite working perfectly the night before, the morning we were due to leave the shower itself was bearly a trickle and even stopped working whilst in the middle of a shower! Checking out - no one around from the night before, left our key with the cleaner! It's a lovely venue/restaurant that does really nice food but I think that's all it should be as there seems to be little attention to the upkeep of the rooms and also it's very impersonal for those that book a stay as there's no personal attention as such.
