The hotel is very attractive and in a good setting convenient for the motorway network. The rooms are nice . The staff could have been a bit more friendly we found them quite formal. We received conflicting information about the cost and availability of some services. For example, some of us were told that there was no facility to store luggage, others had their luggage stored without a problem.

The room was spacious, however dirty and upon entry I found it smelled really bad, I learned the reason for this when I went in the bathroom. Additionally after the wedding I was attending I couldn’t renter my room, at first the key was replace and after this happened twice, the receptionist told me she would see what the problem was and return. I waited in the bar area until she said it was the battery for the electronic lock. I waited until it was fixed which was roughly between 1-2am. She offered to give me a free drink at the bar, but I wanted to go to bed so declined. The breakfast wasn’t great but note I am vegetarian.

Could only order the 2 for one cocktails in a certain bar but you could then take them in the other bar after!? Made no sense. Decor is very dated. Food was very good from restaurant. Jacuzzi was out of action again. Was an ok stay but would not return

Enjoyable stay but mattress had seen better days
Lovely location. Super lovely staff. Great buffet breakfast. Rooms are beige but nice. Bathrooms in good condition. Lots of space. Quiet AC. Lots of storage. Big downside was the bed. Lumpy and uncomfortable. A shame because everything else was more than adequate.

Hotel is in a good position, easy access to major roads, yet set in lovely countryside. Rooms were spacious and clean, comfortable beds. However, the cost of our room did not match quality of service provided and our stay was mared by patronising, brusque and dismissive communication by some members of the team.
