Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel was quite mixed. The room wasn't ready when we arrived late at night, and the promised view turned out to be of an ugly car park and tatty block. It was quite cold, and the air conditioning wasn't working. On the bright side, the staff were delightful. However, service was slow, and we had to change rooms due to their mistake, ending up in a loud, tired room near the main road. The location was lovely for my son's birthday treat, and we're considering returning next year. The dining experience was subpar due to chaotic conditions, but the traditional English breakfast was decent. Overall, a bit of a hit-and-miss experience.
The hotel's rooms need a proper update and were extremely warm with no manual controls for temperature adjustment. Despite some navigation challenges around the property, the service was exceptional with staff going above and beyond to assist guests. The location is convenient for various attractions and transport links. The dining experience had some ups and downs, with staff excellence shining through. Overall, the hotel provided adequate but not outstanding accommodations.
My stay at the hotel was fantastic! The rooms were spacious and comfy, a lovely treat for our anniversary. We enjoyed using the Spa and had a fabulous breakfast. However, I found the rooms to be a bit dated.
Our stay at the hotel had its highlights and downsides. The location was lovely with a water fountain nearby, but being far from everything made it a bit inconvenient. The rooms were not ready upon our arrival, and the lack of bedside cabinets was a drawback. Service was a mixed bag, with slow responses and occasional forgetfulness, but the staff was friendly and well-trained. The dining experience was average with a busy dining room and cold food. Despite these issues, the facilities were decent.
The service is polite and welcoming, with particular attention to customer needs. The location is convenient for a spa break but could be brighter. The dining experience had a reasonable food selection, though some choices were lacking. Overall, a good option for a relaxing stay.
