We stayed on a busy Friday night for the bank holiday and the hotel was lovely. Great check in staff but a terrible experience in the Salt Bar for 2 simple drinks, over 30 minutes to get served and generally chaotic. Breakfast was an effort, with no plates for the buffet, no glasses at the buffet (placed on tables but not told to take them up for juice etc), Orders were not taken in a logical manner, hot drinks took an age to arrive and tables were not cleared properly or checked before seating people. A generally chaotic service which was quite stressful for us and others seated near us. That said, the breakfast food was great when it came out and the coffees were very nice just all a bit hectic and not very fast.
