Over all the staff were kind and helpful but the room was a big disappointment for the money payed.
Pros:

Downstairs was lovely, breakfast and the bar were beautiful.

Cons:

The room was a disappointment. The bathroom had dirty marks all over the wall, there was earthing wires hanging down on show, the over all finish of the decoration of the room was shabby. The room was incredibly hot, you couldn’t open the windows more then a few inches and even if you could there was constant bright lights outside.

Beautiful Hotel & Location
Pros:

The staff are what I loved most about this hotel. Very good at what they do, accommodating, friendly, willing to help etc. Excellent!

Cons:

A few small things such as the phone to call reception couldn't be used until it was sufficiently charged. There was no thermostat in the room so had to call down for an additional space heater. But the staff could not have been more accommodating.
