Well below par
Pros:

The waiting staff in the restaurant were exceptionally helpful

Cons:

The bathroom had urine, hair and faeces which was reported but not attended to. I have yet to hear from the manager. The front of house manager was completely stroppy when I asked politely to discuss the matter

One night in October
Pros:

Breakfast great, plenty of gluten free options. Staff excellent, especially the "more mature " gentleman who couldn't do enough for us and our dietary requirements.
He was a great advert for your business.

Cons:

Unable to get any hand soap from dispenser so had to use shower gel instead. Only one bathtowel despite being 2 guests. Mattress protector stained with blood. Curtains that wouldn't close on one side, therefore barely slept all night.

Perfect!
Pros:

Location, how quiet it was inside the room. The restaurant was great. Food was amazing and staff at the time were so polite.

Cons:

We went out for drinks and I came back to the hotel after 12am and rang the intercom to be let in and I was standing for a fair while before being let in. The porter on at the time looked like I was inconveniencing him.

Not much to differentiate between this hotel and a Premier Inn
Pros:

It was warm, clean and quiet.

Cons:

The car parking is a rip off and only mentioned in the smaller print.
Breakfast not taken as it was expensive as was the restaurant.

Nice stay , did not rate food, was ok
Pros:

Location close to Hydro

Cons:

River view room had been made up into single beds. Aircon in room did not work and they said it was unable to be fixed. Safe in room did not work. Housekeeping manager apologised about beds and said they should’ve been made into large double bed which he rectified. As aircon was not working I asked to change rooms which staff did and I
received 2 vouchers for complimentary drinks at bar for inconvenience .

Cons:

The rooms were basic tiny bar didn’t fit all the guests ate in the restaurant food was horrible and definitely NOT value for money and they had. A cheek to add on service charge even breakfast wasn’t up to much
