"Excellent stay marred by chaotic breakfast. Speedy check-in with free biscuit; lift to top floor and a very clean pitchside twin room with bath and shower over. Shame no adjustable head as hard to wash without soaking hair (bath hat flattens style). Plenty of storage. Lots of lights, altough none very strong. Shame you can't open balcony doors. Quick response to change hair dryer when the first didn't work. Attended a party in Red Dot bar - fantastic buffet provided. DJ was host's own and I gather hotel's recommended person did not respond to enquiries. Decent sleep on good bed. Other guests rather noisy with corridor chats and doors banging. Good bedding. Breakfast - there was no room to sit down so placed in an ante room. Much further to carry each plate back but also long queues, ran out of bacon. It didn't feel like the wonderful post party breakfast we'd envisaged. None of the group could sit anywhere near each other. One staff member said it was always this way on a Sunday morn and another said it was out of the ordinary and they had never had everyone want breakfast at the same time before (9.30) but with check out at 11 it seems the most likely! I have stayed before for NYE and had a less convenient room but with breakfast well organised so I think this is a management issue. Letting huge volumes choose to sit as they wish (2 people on larger tables) is crying out for the chaos that we experienced. Disappointing end but the breakfast is 50% of the hotel experience!"

"You arrive and will be advised that you need to pay for the room and that you cant get incidentals billed to you room as these need to be pay as go! When you pay at the bar / restaurant they seemed to be clueless about needing a VAT receipt and will ask you to scan a QR code for a receipt. However you will find out that in fact this is not a VAT receipt that is emailed to you and need to ask the hotel to manually write out a VAT receipt. The restaurant menus has about 6 mains which is fine, except that for me when I ordered they came back not once but twice to advise that my choice was out of stock! If you want to use the gym/spa its an additional cost at £12 per day and having used the gym the equipment is dated and not all working, both sauna and steam room are tired, however the pool is a good size, but for me it would not be worth the money. The staff were polite and worked to a good standard and some of the above would not be their fault, I think it was more to due with the hotel going through some kind of ownership change, however it did not make for an easy stress free stay."

"Friendly staff. Nice comfy and clean room. Great food at the bar. Good facilities. "
