Was okay but probably wouldn't stay next time.

The spa facilities are great! And mostly the service was good too. But the fact we pay so much and when we ask for water bottles for the room they charge £1 a bottle was crazy! Also the breakfast on a whole was great .....again they charged if you ordered 2 plates but I think this was to prevent wastage! The hotel itself partially seemed old. The room wasn't as clean as I'd expect. Also they had very different rooms and we got 2 rooms and got very different rooms.

Great stay

Had two glorious nights in a deluxe room and decided to stay for a third. Third night room was a classic and felt very cramped. Son was in an attic room and said the same. But everything else about the rooms was great, and the staff were friendliness itself!

Excellent hot spring

A repeat visit for us. The hot spring is excellent (even though the main indoor pool was a hotter than the super-nice temperature on previous occasions), breakfast is good, rooms are comfortable (although aircon was not working well this time and one had to sleep with open windows, it was reasonably quiet), convenient parking nearby

Great room, poorly-replenished breakfast

The main thermal pool in the basement was unfortunately too hot during this particular visit. We've stayed several times before; this was the first time the water was uncomfortably hot (there could have been a on-off problem with the heat regulation valve). Our room at the corner of the building was quiet, well air-conditioned and comfortable. The breakfast was decent but they ran out of croissants and other pastries pretty early on and failed to replenish the tray. I don't see why they couldn't keep the tray filled until 10.30 AM so hotel guests arriving later for breakfast could have some pastries too. The hotel could also serve better quality sourdough bread at the self-service breakfast counter instead of cheap sliced bread containing preservatives and additives.

It is a nice Hitel in the list. centre of the city in a historical building. But for a 5 * not have parking . They just offer valet parking at a price of £30 a night . That does not sound right. Also, breakfast did not match 5* at all, not even 4* -stale bread and juice, that supposed to be freshly squeezes, was squeezed probable 3 years ago. I had to make a lot of noise and only then hit a cup of fresh juice. Left hungry Tim thus breakfast. It is a spa hotel , but all had to be paid extra, even just simple use of sauna. It us wrong fir a 5*!hotel.

Luxury hotel but the staff need some feedback

Beautiful hotel and location. Great rooms, bed v comfortable, luxurious feel to the place. Spa was good, could do with updating a bit so feels less tired. Spa treatment was ok, but not worth the value at £85 for 50 mins. The main issue was the service received. Room was ready at 2pm but they made us wait in reception for 39 minutes to get into it. When I pushed the issue I was met with grumpy facial expressions and silence. At breakfast, the three of us were shown to our table by the manager. The same manager questioned why I was ordering 3 breakfasts and were 2 of them for me as there were only 2 of us sitting at the table. (My friend was getting a coffee) I was embarrassed at the suggestion.
