Clean, comfortable and well appointed.
8.0 / 10.0
Room was spacious, warm and and well furnished. Bathroom fixtures modern and high quality.
Food, both in the bar and restaurant exceeded my expectations.
Corridors / approach to pool and gym area a bit unwelcoming and badly signed.
7.0 / 10.0
Location is great. The reception staff were wonderful and explained everything.
The facilities on offer are good.
Room was big with a great comfortable bed.
Breakfast was poor for room service. On the first day it was not great and on the second day I was supposed to get this between 7.30am and 8am as I had a team meeting in my room at 8.15am. This did not arrive and I had to phone reception and the night porter had forgot to pick up my ticket!. The lady on reception quickly remedied this so well done to her!
Also there was no hotel info in the room.

Most of it.
The set menu was the same both nights and choices were a little limited with lots of chicken dishes.
The waitresses were very keen on clearing the table when you'd finished eating.

Nice breakfast and comfortable beds.
Fire alarm going off early hours in the morning causing lots of distress for myself and my husband, who is awaiting major heart surgery. No staff to assist anyone and lots of chaos from customers who didn’t know what to do.

We came with a dance group of children and parents. Beautiful location, plenty parking. Fabulous spacious rooms. Enjoyed the use of the swimming pool for our children.
Bit noisey for my friend who stayed in a room facing front of the hotel. A wedding had been on, and children were running around outside at midnight shouting.

Comfortable beds and nice size room.
Fire alarm went off several times early hours in the morning. No staff were present at reception or around the hotel, the phone in my room didn’t work, and no one answered the hotel number. This was distressing and unsafe. We were told to go back to our rooms by a lady who was leaving the hotel but the alarm was still going off.

Breakfast was very good, and the diner was excellent they reserved a table for us so we could still have the evening meal even though it was quite late.
The Parking: we were not informed that we had to register our number plate on the screens at the reception unfortunately the receptionist did not tell us when we checked in, so we hope that we are not getting a fine in the future.
