Channels Hotel is located at a quiet area and the rooms are very nice. This time my room was at the end of building near to country road, which generated some noise. The breakfast is delicious and good variety.

Nice hotel in general although the shower this time was tiny, felt like I was in a cupboard. Poor WiFi and disappointed that the bar closed at 10pm, I appreciate it dues not belong to the hotel but you think they would have an agreement as 99% of hotel clients use it. Staff were excellent and breakfast was very good

Fabulous resort style hotel.

Booked on a recommendation from a local venue and it didn’t disappoint all rooms are in lodges with a cafe/bistro on site. We had breakfast and dinner which were both freshly cooked and excellent.

8/10 Very good

Space for breakfast was over crowded by chairs & tables. Not enough space between the tables. Was informed by the waiting in staff that we were only allowed one breakfast choice off the menu - I wanted a small bowl of porridge and an omelette. Great rooms, spacious bathrooms, great setting for a hotel and friendly bar and Brassie staff who were very helpful and assisted with requests.
