As previously told, Expedia advertising for this property was not correct. Everything had additional costs. Food was not outstanding. Room was not a luxury hotel room. Initial staff greeting was cold and rude.

Liked: Cleanliness
Property convenient to the town. Pleasant grounds and reception and bar and restaurant areas. Bedrooms tired, including the card locks on door as they kept malfunctioning. Restaurant pleasant and food good, however the service was slow despite being two thirds empty. Opted out of dessert as waitress took too long to come back. Same room used for breakfast and was over crowded with tables too close together and guests banging into each other in the narrow self service area. In contract the main bar was lovely. Staff and service were excellent and food very good. Only gave a 3 to take account of poor restaurant service. If I was just marking the bar, it would have been 5 stars.

Beautiful hotel with exceptional staff. Duty night manager resolved an issue with noisy residents beautifully. The Spa is fantastic. The full body massage was just what I needed. I'd go back in a heartbeat.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
There was a bad water leak in the first room we stayed in but I suppose that can happen anytime. We were moved to another room that had no fridge, no bath plug, didn’t replenish body soap in shower, left dirty cleaning cloth in room, didn’t remove dirty glasses from previous night but worst of all, the bed got made up on 2 occasions without changing the dirty bed sheets. Some staff tried to rectify these issues but some other staff had a terrible attitude towards customer service. The breakfast was excellent every morning and evening meals were pretty good. It’s a pity that a nice Hotel like this would have a lot of unnecessary shortcomings.
