Wonderful woodland stay.

A wonderful woodland stay in a character filled hotel and restaurant in the heart of the Malverns. Did not have dinner here, but the cooked breakfast was spot on. Staff were very helpful and friendly throughout my stay.

Spectacular location but spread over 3 buildings so quite a trek to the dining room if you're old or infirm. Food and service good. Accommodation itself OK but nothing special e.g. no bath mats, not much heating, noise from room above simply from them walking around. Overall, overpriced I think.

The view is the star…but it may be one of the few!

Good on some levels. A little lacking in others. I really wanted to give this a five star review as it feels like it should have..but… Just a few little touches make it not ‘5 star’ ( at least not for me). I’ve stayed in many hotels and B & Bs and this should be in the top ten. The room was perfectly nice - although the sofa to take in the view was a little incongruous for me and a period armchair would be more fitting, although obviously only one person could then sit. Actually from the angle only one person could take in the view from room 30 anyway! It’s very thoughtful to have binoculars in the rooms - and tea making facilities. Although if you are going to provide this maybe provide milk or cream also? And a few small biscuits maybe? I’ve even stayed in chain hotels which do this. Small things matter… (To be fair they did provide milk, and the biscuits when they picked up my initial comments to Hotels.com). The biggest issue I had with the room was the shower. Hotel showers sometimes take a little working out, but they really shouldn’t. No one is going to complain about an over explanation of how the shower/works. It is literally different everywhere. I don’t want to spend more time making the shower work than showering! And why would you have a different temperature control between the handheld and the overhead shower?! Unfortunately no space for the restaurant- but I do recommend staff check to see if a customer’s food is all ok after serving.
