Liked: Staff & service
The hotel unfortunately feels more like a 3 star than a 4 star. The breakfast is quite limited and the rooms weren’t as clean as we would expect. The staff were helpful and kind. The pool is quite small it’s a good size if you manage to get it to yourself but as soon as it gets busy it’s no good. The sauna takes a while to heat up and the steam room was out of order.

The room was unbearably cold. The pool experience was a disaster. The changing rooms were incredibly cramped, and the pool itself was small with debris floating in the water. Most frustratingly, the showers only had lukewarm water. Shivering in a cold locker room, we desperately needed a warm shower, but it was impossible.The shower in our room was completely blocked.The Wi-Fi signal was so weak and unstable that it was practically useless.

Room was a little tired although it did have air conditioning The main reason for filling in the survey was the food. The first night it took 50 minutes for the starter to arrive which was only pate. The second night the starter and main course arrived together. The actual food was quite nice

Overall, we were satisfied with the hotel. The English breakfast was very tasty — especially considering that I am a chef working in a five-star hotel in London. The sausages and bacon were exceptionally good. I was slightly disappointed that still water was not available and only sparkling water was offered. Overall, the hotel offers good value for money and we enjoyed our stay.

Poor basic room. Couldn’t use the bar because there were parties going on until 1 am. They warned you about the late Christmas parties, but only after you’ve paid, so there is nothing you can do about it. Used to go there in the old days not the same place, wouldn’t bother again.

The room was very clean, which is the most important thing. Bring some water with you: there is no bottled water left in the room and the tap water is undrinkable. Freshly cooked breakfast is satisfactory but coffee was not good: weak and cold.
