Very impressed with service at this hotel, we had an issue with our room and staff were very accommodating and moved us. Thank you to Chantel, Hotel Experience Manager for sorting this efficiently it was much appreciated. The rooms are very comfortable and so quiet. The breakfast range was fantastic - one of the best we have had in a hotel. We ate at the hotel one night and the food was also very good. Staff were very helpful and very friendly. We enjoyed our stay.
