Overall good

Rooms shabby in parts. Bathroom very dated. We were celebrating an anniversary and special birthday but all we had was writing on a mirror. This was a disappointment. I also thought I left my watch in the room after checkout. I called to find out. Never heard back from them. They could have at least phoned to say they hadn’t located it. Breakfast felt rushed and was buffet whereas before it was al la carte. Don’t feel it’s 5 stars. It so could be with more attention to detail

Great hotel, beautiful room, friendly and helpful staff and lovely breakfast.The music in the gym when it went on was not motivating at all( smooth radio) which made me want to go to sleep! Also , i had to leave the changing room in the spa to request a robe as i was not given one upon arrival ( even though other users after me were ! )

Lovely hotel

Lovely staff. Really nice hotel. View from window was amazing. Breakfast was brilliant. The only thing I would say what needs improving is the bathrooms a little updating. Room 506. Tiles seem a bit dated and could do with a good ( ones on side of bath joining to the floor) clean. Apart from that room was lovely.
