Not impressed. A splendid hotel, but poor service.

Waited 15 minutes for someone to appear at Reception. We and another guest hunted around for staff. No apology when a man eventually found time to check us in.

Good view of the Lake

After we upgraded our room, we were much happier and it had a view of the lake. The initial room was supposedly with a courtyard view but there wasn’t one and it was so cramped. We had a lovely stay. The meals were good and the staff very helpful and pleasant

Paid extra for the better room. No cold water through the shower so water was scalding. Used bath instead using kettle to take cold water from sink to cool water do. Spa feature if the bath did not work. Could hear the plumbing from room above us and when they were walking around it was loud. Breakfast was warm to cold. Was disappointed because it is in a beautiful setting and close enough that we would have visited again.

The little things let it down

Overall the hotel was very nice however I’ve stay in hotels almost weekly either for business or for leisure and there were things at this hotel that I have not experienced for a very long time. They only serve breakfast until 9:30 am which weekend is exceptionally early. And checkout is 10:30 am which I have almost never ever experienced. They charge £15 an hour for late checkout which is particularly high for a three star hotel. The staff were very nice and the food was good although breakfast was pretty average and at £12.95 should have been better than average. The views over the lake are lovely.

Great location & clean room. Room was however tired & dated & in need of investment. It needed a power shower, bedside lamps, more power sockets & a bigger better placed tv. Breakfast was okay but staff struggled with demand, it reminded me of scout camp ! We had to wait for plates and glasses. Hotel generally needs some serious nvestment before ii'd consider returning.
