The hotel exceeded our expectations and was perfect for a short stay whilst in the area to visit the Warner Bros HP tour
Pros:

Staff were very friendly and attentive. Great food and service. Everywhere was very clean and well kept. Good facilities.

Cons:

Swimming pool was a little overcrowded for the first 10 minutes of our slot, and was a little on the chilly side. Family room was a bit cramped for the price and the sofa bed not the most comfortable. Fine for 1 night though.
