Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
The staff where lovely and helpful. The hotel was a bit grotty, the back of the toilet seat was dirty, hair on the shower curtain, that sort of thing. Our room had an adjoining door to the next room, it sounded like they where in the room with us, no soundproofing. The food was ok, but the order was wrong. I didn't use the pool because I was put off by the overall state of the place. It needs a really good deep clean. It was not worth the cost.

Worst bed ever!

First the positives - nice easy check, pleasant gentleman at reception, birthday package was purchased in advance and was lovely. Now the not so positives - The room was tired looking and in need of updating. No a/c and it was really hot. Windows open but as it’s on a main road it’s very noisy to sleep with them open. Absolutely no soundproofing in the room and we could hear the conversations and movement of people upstairs and outside the room. The most uncomfortable, rock hard bed I’ve ever been on! We couldn’t sleep due to noise and temperature and the rock hard bed made it impossible to even try. Really disappointed and absolutely shattered from no sleep. Thankfully we only booked 1 night and have just checked into a much nicer hotel. I wish I read the reviews before I booked!!

Pas convaincu

La chambre était étroite et je n'ai pas trouvé qu'elle était propre mis à part le lit. Les murs sont fins comme du papier et j'ai entendu les personnes de la chambre à côté rentrer dans leur chambre et s'installer tout ça vers 11PM. La salle de bain est vraiment petite et idem question propreté ce n'était pas ça. Je n'y retournerai pas

Family holiday to Wales!

Omg! What a fantastic hotel! We are a family of 4 adults 2 children and 2 dogs. We were welcomed to the hotel by a warm, friendly lady, who offered us all of the information we needed. The following morning it was just wonderful to see that there were breakfast tables available to sit at with our 2 dogs (who are our babies!) Breakfast was lovely! Then we discovered the beautiful garden, which both the children and dogs loved and used lots of energy before our onward journey! We all felt we could not have chosen a better hotel! Laura on reception was exceptional, so lovely and helpful! The surrounding area was beautiful too! We walked into Christleton and had a meal in a lovely pub, with gorgeous staff!
