We struggled to find a hotel near YSP. This place could really do with a major upgrade. The grounds are lovely. Staff were friendly but the place is in dire need of improvement. A bit stuck in a time warp. Needs new everything!

The location was stunning and very picturesque. The spa and swimming pool view was fabulous. The hot tub location and view was amazing.
Breakfast was very simple and traditional but quality was good.
The massage quality and type of massage ( deep tissue) disappointed us as I usually get an hour very professional Thai massage by half price!!!

Extra cost for spa facilities.
Excellent rooms. The only downside was the spa facilities was not included in the price except between 7am to 9am it was an extra £20 to £30 per a person at all other time which i thought let down the hotel. I would of not booked it if i knew there was an extra cost.

Terrible room
Before going to sleep, there was an evident dip in the bed to one side. When I got into bed, it was two singles together, which I know is common for hotels but these mattresses were polar opposites. One was extremely used & dipped in the middle & the other was rock solid. I asked to change rooms & although rooms were free, none were clean. There’s also a smoke detector wit a flashing LED above the bed which lights up the room when in complete darkness. AVOID room 45 at all costs. Issued my concerns at checkout & over email & nobody is interested, only wishing my return which will absolutely not be happening. Aesthetically the hotel & grounds are fantastic but in reality, they are worn, tired & past their best.

Disappointing Experience — Poor Value for Money
I stayed here on a business trip and was very disappointed. The internet didn’t work, which was unacceptable given I was there for work. The bed was poorly made and not clean, one of the power sockets didn’t work, and the TV remote was broken. For the price, the quality was far below expectations. I would not recommend this place, especially for business travelers.
