We had a fantastic weekend at Brandon Hotel. From the moment we arrived we were warmly greeted by the friendly staff. We did enjoy the gym, sauna and pool area. Our family room was spacious and beds were really comfortable. The food at the breakfast buffet was good, fresh and diverse. Something for everyone. According my son he had the best hot chocolate :) Overall this weekend was an absolutely treat for the family. Highly recommend for a relaxing family getaway!

Charming but in desperate need of TLC

We had a lovely stay at Brandon House Hotel, and there's a lot to like about the place. However, it's simply not a four-star hotel and the expectation as such let it down for us. The old library bar is beautiful, the view from the hotel is gorgeous and the staff were all very good - but everywhere had a feeling of being neglected, from the rising damp on the walls in the breakfast room to the many functions that didn't work in the leisure suite and the smell of damp throughout. Both the room rate and the library bar food were priced as a fancy place, but for that money I expect quality throughout. I hope the renovations will be extensive, because the place has plenty of charm and potential!
