“We paid for alfa travel.but all they did was take us to south Mimms. Another coach took us to Yorkshire. Harrogate. The food was disgusting. Hotel crown was ok but staff made no conversation with you .no good morning, nothing.Got a letter today there drivers are not tour guides. Well iam sorry I thought alfa tours were.Never use them again and I will not recommend them to anyone.”

“Bournemouth & Dorset - 5 Days - 21 Sept 2024. Dave our driver was excellent, telling you about the area we were going through and many historic details. Now the East Cliff Hotel on the beach road, our Travel Tickets showed a Walk-in Shower, which we really required, both with walking sticks etc. But we were the third floor, in a Classic Double king size bed, which was very nice, but no shower! Apparently the Walk-in Showers were up a flight of stairs, but no lifts In the room, no Biscuits, no Glasses, and if we obtained them at the bar, they removed them. We had to go to the sister hotel next door for breakfast twice and one evening meal, due to Chef's illness. Staff were hard to understand, poor English. Our Coach Party was only 23 people and only a few other guest's in it? The meals were a mix of good and not so good, par for the course! The Hotel is struggling for a variety of reasons we feel.”

“Just returned from the Shanklin Hotel on the IOW, lovely hotel. Great holiday, wonderful evening entertainment. In the main the food was good and the staff worked extremely hard to take care of us, although on the returning day breakfast was cold, ( very early ). Our driver Andy was brilliant, safe, very informative, knowledgeable and highly entertaining. He made our holiday. Thanks again Andy.”

“Returned today from Queen's hotel in Blackpool. Have been going to the Queen's for many years long before lesurplex took it over.Always enjoyed my break away this year was a disappointment. Hotel was pretty much as usual but dining room had too many tables making it difficult to get around. The staff tried their best but just not enough off them to cope with the amount of people that were there. The food was not good mostly overcooked or soggy. Not having a a bar open in lounge area at night having to trapse round to other bar and back again for a drink not handy at all. I will seriously have to think twice about coming back.”

“Just returned from our Derbyshire Dales / Chatsworth house trip ,tour no 5317EC/ The trip it’s self was excellent/ along with a very good femail driver for the duration of our the days out. My wife and I have had several coach trips with with Alfa travel co, but sadly the hotel [third party hotel]witch Alfa used for our stay Leonardo Hotel in Sheffield did not meet the standards we were accustomed to, the hotel it’s self was very good , nice and clean. The problem was the evening meals were in my option 3rd rate!!! No1 there were no menus to be seen . No2 a very very limited choice of food on offer ,every evening. No3 the food that was served was Luke warm at best. No 4 it was all self service/ buffet style , not quite what we are used to at a Leisureplex hotels. I know it is a budget holiday. But it truly was a let down and did not show Alfa off in a good light. I fully understand there was no entertainment in the evenings as advertised,no problems. On arrival there was no welcome speech from the hotel staff . On top of that ,there was no portage to be had at all. Just crack on with it was the attitude. Not good to be honest . One thing is for sure ,should we chose to go with Alfa once’s again in the future IT will not be to a third party Hotel for sure.”

“Were do I start,upon arriving at woodhall,told got 10 minutes before having to leave,then driver acted like he didn't know what he was doing,worried about his tachograph not his passengers,only one 40 minutes stop on way to Fort William,3 times tried to stop for a toilet stop,but all closed,then missed turn off for hotel,when arriving at hotel had to take own bags to room, ordered 2 celebration packages for my wife(which come until next day)had 35 minutes before evening meal,which was horrible,first day excursion to tobermory, couldn't get on booked on ferry because driver didn't tell em we was booked on,so had to wait 1 hour longer,day to ourselves was best say.Day trip to Skye was a waste of time,why stop for a coffee on way there,5 and a half hours travelling for 2 hours and 10 minutes to ourselves was a joke.Journey home was a joke.left on time,then decided to stop for 15 minutes for a toilet break,get to services and driver tells us we have 30 minutes to eat toilet and have a drink,he was more worried about feeder coaches than his own passengers,then arriving back at woodhall,told we had to go toilet and straight on feeder coaches,so no time for a drink again.Avoid Croit Anna hotel at all costs,only good thing was our waitress and of you go with Alfa and Keith of Sleafordian is your driver,then good luck,mote like a bus driver than a coach driver only gave 1 star because I couldn't give none”

“I and my party went to Shanklin Hotel isle of wight and when we went in the Restaurant could not find the table allocated to us, another table was set up.Waiter service was so bad.On the last date when we went for breakfast no waiter came at all ,they were just clearing tables at the far end.Complained and this was to no avail. NOT worth complaining at all.”

“Arrived 6.10pm at hotel evening meal at 6.30 plates and meals cold and during the week too menu same as room menu and it was the same menu all week too Weren't told about surcharges and it was only after complaints that things were explained to us but a lot of staff had little or no English did a lot of days out criss crossing which wasn't necessary not well thought out G.O.Spey was a waste of time as was Loch Ness hotel rooms basic and smallish no porterage or easy access for those in wheelchiars Carr Bridge was nice but again nothing there On the last night our driver + another driver had to stay in Aviemore so what if something had happened who were we to contact coming home stopped in Stirling 15mins then Greta Green for half an hour and then 15mins at Charnock Richard why when we were not far from Burtonwood will think twice about booking again disappointed traveller”

“Just returned from Scarborough--Yorkshire after a wonderful 5 day holiday, not a single complaint to make about the Cumberland Hotel, fantastic staff in all departments, drivers were fantastic,polite,helpful,cheerful,even with awkward travelers.Must make a reference for Richard [ Bland's Coach ] our driver he helped everyone each time, even doing first aid at one point. our two days excursions were fantastic too.This is our 3rd break with Alfa and not one complaint, do hope you get at least get a gold star rating this year as it is well deserved.Christmas is our next one with you and already sorting out for 2025 Spring break.Well Done. Dee and Roy Davies-- Corby--Northants”

“Just returned from staying in the selbourne hotel Dunoon. Staff very pleasant and helpful we had a lovely waiter Jesus . He was very helpful nothing was a bother to him . He has a lovely personality. The hotel was very nice the bar and dining room has been refurbished and is lovely. The room was dated but clean , comfortable bed, soft towels and plenty of hot water. Fantastic views . Enjoyed the trips to Oban, Bute, inverary and luss . The weather wasn't always good but that's Scotland for you. Our driver was Kevin and he kept us entertained and was very informative. We will be using Alfa again x”

“Just got back from lovely holiday to Oxford and Cambridge great crowd on coach all got on really well but what a superb driver we had (Dave) could not do enough for us all mingled with all passengers so helpful and caring.Stayed at the Holiday Inn in Stevenage lovely and clean a bit far out had fantastic guides in Oxford and even better in Cambridge lovely day in St Albans.As for the Holiday inn and I've stayed in a few the staff are rude miserable with the exception of one of the bar staff on the first night we arrived unfortunately she was not in the rest of the week breakfast were lovely but not enough choice for evening meal and when they run out did not replace staff need some training how to smile and be polite to customers Thanks to all passengers and the driver DAVE for making our holiday so special”
