No provisions in room to cool it down which meant the room was 29.5 degrees. Our daughter cut her finger in a broken sink, told reception on check out, there was no concern. We spent 30 minutes waiting for food at breakfast due to there being no food , we asked for a highchair 3 times before being privided and when it was it was covered in toast crumbs and dirty. We werent offered tea or coffe. On a positive the bed was comfortable.

Very clean, very comfortable and quiet. Mordern luxurious rooms excellent
Hotel very clean, bathroom was great with large bath and shower, huge tv, large, comfortable clean bed, convenient free parking. Service was amazing, we left behind some boots in our room and the hotel contacted us and arranged for them to be posted to our home address, so huge thank you for that. Breakfast was plentiful but not the best tasting in our opinion and the coffee was awful. Would stay again for sure.

A bit disappointing
We booked a Spa Room. The cleanliness of the room was subpar. We had a room close to the main road, and it was very noisy even with the window closed. The robes are old and need replacing. However, the staff were very friendly and helpful. We had a plant-based breakfast, and that was also very good. It's a very nice hotel but I left there a bit disappointed.

The modern side of the hotel was good but sections of the older part needed updating or mending. Staff, food etc excellent. Drinks were horrendously priced with half the wedding party drinking tap water as a consequence.

Service!!
Reception was great, staff welcoming. Downside was the breakfast service staff who were not focussed on delivering the correct breakfast or reacting to “Service” being shouted from the kitchen.

Nice hotel but restaurant not as good as usual
The rooms at this hotel are spacious and clean, the only issue it how long it takes to run a bath.
Reception staff were efficient and friendly.
Breakfast was OK.
Dinner was not up to it's usual standard with very slow service. A small burger in a massif bun and "skin on fries", potatoes should be peeled
