Disliked: Room comfort
My stay was very poor for the money I paid. I was told I had to pay another £20 any time I wanted to use the leisure facilities. I had already paid almost £140 a night so for me this complete greed. The breakfast was not a pleasant experience. Limited choice and ran out of yoghurts on my first day and still had not replenished on day 5 of my stay. Room cleaning still wasn’t done at 3 PM one day when I came back from work so had to do without cleaning that day. And finally the staff were not friendly so I would never stay, nor recommend, this hotel to anyone.

Nice place but tbe gym and spa were additional prices. The receptionist wasn’t very supportive when I arrived asking to use the gym so needed this to be escalated to management. The spa facilities then only allowed you to use th outdoor jacuzzi if you had a treatment. I don’t think I’ll visit again based on the additional costs for the gym and spa

Ok—- ish Nothing bad - just a basic hotel
It was ok —- a place to sleep. But a little dissapointing …. The write-up by Hotels.com , and the price of the rooms suggested/promissed something better—— for us , it was a basic hotel, with basic facilities—- pub-bar type “restaurant”, -crowded and noisy and cramped—dood was pub-grub really — nothing special —- room basic with low budget furnishings , bathroom the same— almost travelLodge or premier inn quality—- a place to speel - but not worth what they charge

Nice 2 day relaxing birthday break
Nice 2 day birthday break for my partner, hotel was spotlessly clean, rooms were well equipped, although a smart tv would have gave it 5 stars instead of 4, bed was exceptionally comfortable & massive, food was great but slightly overpriced we thought, the SPA suite wasn't the best but relaxing, SPA treatments were way overpriced for what was on offer, but we enjoyed our stay

The hotel was lovely, the girls on reception were very nice and couldn't do enough for you. We were on the ground floor and in the mornings it was very noisy outside so couldn't sleep as long as we wanted. The rooms were lovely and the bed was extremely comfortable but the shower was not great, there wasn't good pressure of water and the water was only slightly warm so that was a big disappointment. Apart from that everything else was good.
