Rooms were like something out of the 1980’s so they agreed to move us In new rooms the tv and aircon didn’t work Had a bath and water drained into the bedroom leaving a puddle Went to dinner and had to wait 2.5 hours for a simple meal including bringing us the wrong main dish for my son so he had to wait even longer Went to check out the next day and charged double for car parking Was also recharged dinner from the night before having already paid All in all a very very very bad stay and will not be back

Reception, lounge/bar area, restaurant and other communal areas very tidy/clean and in good condition. Unfortunately not the case in our room, which, decor/furniture wise was quite tired and shabby. I expected better for a room costing £205 for 1 night. I will not be returning.

Lovely hotel, but not so lovely beds.

Beautiful hotel, fantastic service, lovely room room and toiletries, however, extremely uncomfortable beds and pillows. We had a family suite and all 4 of us found the beds awful and were waking all night. The mattresses make you roll out the bed where they've obviously been so overused and they're dipped at the sides. Such a shame as it really is a lovely and very clean hotel, but at the end of the day, the beds let it down massively.
