Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities
Did not have a clue as to what was available for breakfast with3 different prices at the reception desk£16 on the tv in the room £15 and at the restaurant £22. Extra charge to use the spa facilities @£30 per person. We enquired about the cost per kilo watt on the Ev charger in car park, which they had no idea having checked online it was .69p per unit so cheaper to run on petrol. No atmosphere to curl up with a book when wet or cold, and generally a sad lack of interest from staff within the hotel. The reception desk is very unwelcoming and in general I would rather have gone to a premier inn. Very expensive accommodation that lacks a lot of detail.
