We have had 3 previous trips to Champneys resorts and thought we understood the service offering. However we are unlikely to stay again. This is not a value for money experience. Aside from being able to walk around in a bathrobe there is nothing different here to a normal hotel with spa facilities. Our fault for not reading the confirmation email when booked but we assumed based on past experience that the use of the spa facilities came with the booking. They didn't. We had to pay an additional £70 each per day of our stay. For this one of the jacuzzi's did not have all the jets working, the large shared sauna was not hot enough, and a small shared sauna was closed. The small shared steam room was also not the best. The fitness classes also now charge a fee. The aqua fit class was disappointing. I find this pricing structure bizarre for this type of resort. In saying that the reception staff member who checked us in and out was wonderful - professional and accommodating. We didn't know until checkout that they resort had provided us a complimentary dinner to celebrate our wedding anniversary which was a nice touch. Our New Zealand waiter also demonstrated a good understanding of customer service - some of the other serving staff could learn from him.

The staff and and services were exceptional and the spa facilities were very good - perfect for a day or two to unwind. I would also recommend having dinner at the in house resturaunt as the quality of food was amazing. Great for an overnight stay with a day spa add on for the next day - you get what you pay for

The whole place looked very tired and in need for refurbishment. Poor maintenance. Staff were very laps. It took us ages to check in. Room ok bathroom very dated. Facilities Spa Reception on ground floor 4 people was standing there talking I had to get there attention to get Spa Menu. They just said you need to go upstairs. Outside pool slabs uneven. Pool dirty again very tatty. We ordered food on the terrace. ordered at desk had to wait until he was finishing what he was doing. We ordered simple turkey sandwich and chicken wrap and two juices. Took our number and sat down at dirty table on terrace. Eventually food come. Just one sandwich. he also delivered food to table next to us. He said nothing. Just brought our drinks and again said nothing. We mentioned we are still waiting for wrap. He said yes its coming. 20min later I went in to ask for my wrap, he was busy talking to colleague. He said again yes its coming. I sat down and further 15mins my wrap came. My partner had finished his. In evening booked set menu food was excellent. No fault and service was better but not what you would expect. after our meal we wanted to sit outside with a drink. We ordered drink at bar and girl said she would bring it to us. We sat and chatted. Again 20min we asked girl that passed us do you know where drinks are. She said oh yes one moment please. We sat for a further 10-15mins and decided not to bother. Very dissappointed not Champneys we'd expected.
