Formule 1 Hotel

itd ok for the price 20 mins walk to city so not to bad.
its different but ok bit more like a hostel than a hotel. no Breakfast. tea & coffee in room. not to bad on the hole.

These motels are basic but functional. If you need a bed for the night & clean shared toilets & showers this is for you. I stayed in this place whilst at a bike show in the town for the 1^st time useing this chain of hotels before going to Europe & using it again. The ones in France are exactly the same in everyway automated cleaning of showers & toiets after every use. Bedrooms sparse but functional with a double bed & single bed bunked above it. The breakfast isn’t to good but everyone needs a cups to start the day & they provide it. I would use this chain if I needed to stop for a night on along journey. What do you exspected for £25 a room for 3. Bargin.

Kind of a difficult place to review, this one. I’ll attempt to explain why
After a night out drinking, we were a bit too ‘happy’ to be able to drive back home, so decided to stay here for the night. After a certain time, you can pay via credit card and get a room key without desk staff being on the premises, so we got a few rooms between six of us.
Bunk beds. but that was ok, we just wanted a bed for the night. At around £25 per room per night, I suppose you get what you pay for. It didnt take long though, for us to realise that most of the ‘ladies of the night’ of Peterborough were also using the hotel to get what they paid for, which made for an entertaining night in itself.
It served a purpose, we were up and out at around 8 the next morning, and it was preferable to sleeping in a ditch and cheaper than getting a taxi to take us the 30 miles across the fens and then catching the train back to reclaim the cars, but its not the kind of place to consider staying at if you’re even halfway sober.
Apparently it was recently taken over by Metro Hotels, so perhaps its now a little classier. Do your research ahead of time if you’re considering it.
