At 10 o clock at night refused entry as my wife did not have a passport or driving licence. She has neither. Looking at reviews we had a lucky escape.

Sturdy room and bed. Clean conditions. Good water supply in shower. No problems at check-in. Wifi was not free. A popup window asked for debit/credit card payment details. I'd rather walk to McDonald's and use free wifi there (without risking my card security). Please install electrical power sockets on the wall beside the bed. It was difficult to operate an alarm clock and phone on the bedside table (needing a long extension cord across the room).

The outside looked scruffy and tired abd the lobby area rather dark and dated. Once in the corridor leading to our room on the third floor it was tidy bright and newly decorated. The twin bed room was large clean and comfortable. A good night's sleep.

The cleanliness was exceptional. The decor of my room on the 5th floor was nice. Slept well. No problems. But I would have liked a warmer welcome when I checked in. Please ask staff to say 'Welcome'. They might like to ask 'Is this your first time to stay at Britannia?' 'Where have you travelled from today?' Anything like that would be nice and doesn't take long!

When booking my stay at Britannia, I made the decision to do so judging by the photo displayed on the Britannia website thinking it looked ok. But on my day of arrival and as my cab was approaching the hotel my heart sank when I looked up and saw just how filthy dirty the outside of the Britannia looked, I couldn't believe what I was seeing. I don't know when this hotel opened, but I would guess that the outside of the Britannia has never been cleaned since it's opening day which I would think could possibly be late 70's / early 80's, that's a long time without a scrub. Having said that, my room was a decent size, it appeared to be clean enough, but I couldn't help but feel unclean whilst staying there because of how the outside of the Britannia looked. This hotel is really old, as were the fixtures and fittings in my room. No mixture taps in the bathroom because they wouldn't have been invented when this hotel opened, but it left using the hot water tap impossible because it was so boiling hot, and you would have to turn the cold tap so many times before the water would start to run. I honestly considered moving to another hotel, but the only reason I stayed was because the staff were nice and very friendly, plus I got so caught up in the history of Coventry and it's ancient buildings that it took my mind off the Britannia. I really did enjoy Coventry itself, but if I were ever to return I would not be staying at the Britannia. This place need a huge injection of money.

Its what you get for the amount you pay.
For a night stay, I would recommend this hotel. The room I stayed in was big and clean. Surprisingly, the both bathroom and the carpets are as clean as they can get. Mattress was hard and it feels like you slept on a slab. They don't have free WIFI so recommend to have your own hotspot for internet.
