Amazing stay and great room! Only issue was that we utilised the gym facilities and the dumbells left metal splinters in my partners hands!!! We had to spend a fortune on ‘home remedies’ to remove them, and when we informed the reception they didn’t seem overly interested. He is still having issues with some of the splinters, and will likely have to seek medical assistance to have them removed. This is an issue with low quality equipment, so very frustrating for this to happen at the hotel. The other facilities were great and well maintained.

Having stayed at the hotel many times, I always enjoy returning here. The sofas could be reupholstered. Disappointed that there was no complimentary water in the fridge. Otherwise, the usual warm welcome.
