Where do you want to stay?

Let us know where you would like to see a hotel with a ceiling track hoist available in the UK. It could be a major city or a seaside resort or even a quiet country getaway. Tell us where and we will see what we can do to persuade a hotel there or close by to fit a hoist for the most popular choices.

What people are saying about CHuC

AH said:

"I came across your website while I was trawling various websites for hotel/holiday accommodation for myself and my husband, who has MS and uses a hoist for some transfers. I can’t tell you how welcome your it is. Since I retired I have been trying to build up a bank of suitable accommodation that we can use. Even visiting family is difficult when you need a hoist. I welcome the provision in the hotels and would welcome more – being able to find a hotel for a night to break a long journey would be brilliant. I would welcome this type of accommodation in the Bath/Bristol area, in Manchester and Chester which would give us access to North Wales. We would use them again and again."
 


Tom says:

"We have been unable to have a family holiday {I have 3 children, 2 of which are still at home} for several years because of the lack of knowledge of hoist availability. The CHuC site is a brilliant facility for information exchange."
 

MD says:
 

"We were delighted to find your web site and to find that there are a few hotels with ceiling hoists. We have stayed at a couple of places with a mobile hoist and faced difficulties similar to your own - it makes the whole experience of travelling stressful and much more difficult and tiring than it need be."
 

G from Australia says:

"Was amazed to find your web site. I am always on the look out for accessible accommodation that offers more than just the odd handrail fitted in bathroom. To find a ceiling hoist installed would be heaven. I have tried to promote the use of ceiling hoists amongst my friends in the disability community and to any body working in allied rehabilitation fields. I don’t know of any in use in Tourist or rental accommodation here in Australia. I wish there was some."
 

PS says:

"I think you have an excellent website and very informative for those of us who are looking for accommodation with ceiling hoists. I have had one at home for 15 years and it makes life so much easier for myself and carer.
Keep up the good work."
 

DM says:
 

"My husband has Multiple Sclerosis and requires a ceiling track hoist to enable us to take short breaks as he can no longer transfer from wheelchair to bed. We have not had a holiday for years but thanks to Holiday Inn we are now able to enjoy theatre breaks, staying at The Holiday Inn Bloomsbury London and The Holiday Inn Kensington Forum London.

I would like to see other hotels fitting hoists may be places like Cambridge, Oxford, Salisbury and Bath, I could go on and on if one hotel group can do it why not others???"
