The reception area was good and the open fire made it very welcoming the bar service was also very nice
The room was very dated and musty. The shower in the bathroom you had to climb in the bath to use the shower all very dated. The breakfast (full English) eggs were dry been on heat too long
not enough choice for a buffet breakfast especially in the fruit dept and pastries
The pool was very shallow. Beautiful to look at but not for serious lane swimming
Great location, fabulous staff
Nothing
Location
The additional cost for a cot in the room was extortionate even though we paid for our two yeah old and the room was so small.
Great location, great helpful staff, comfy bed, great shower, great breakfast
Did not dislike anything
When we had breakfast, with a dog we could only access hot buffet , not the tea,coffee, juice ,water , cereal extra
No one offered to help , just asked me to leave the area with the dog
Location, staff, breakfast.
The room had continuous fan noise as its window opened to the roof of the pool, where the ventilation system was quite loud.
Location and staff
Rooms were very hot, food is expensive especially Sunday lunch (£35 for 2 coursss) and there were no other options at the time.
When we first saw the hotel it looked absolutely lovely; the photos online make it look incredible!
When we walked in we got the keys quickly. Was unaware we had to reserve £25 when we got there on our card. The staff member was nice. The outside of the hotel is nice to look at.
Sadly the rest wasn’t very good. The room was okay but for £252 (I paid less in central London on marathon weekend) you kind of expect a little more. There were no plugs next to the bed which is always a pain. Bed was a bit hard.
Wish as well you could have a breakfast option as we were never going to take advantage of this.
It is SO noisy. We could hear children running up and down the halls and lots of noise from outside and with a newborn it was an absolute nightmare (they knew we had a baby so could have placed us in a better area) and felt a bit awkward that people might have been able to hear him cry in the night based off what we could hear.
The windows were open so far in the room that if I was alone I would have been unable to shut them without getting a staff member which seems a bit silly to do.
We stayed for the new forest marathon which we do each year, we did look to go next year as it’s only one night and in a good area for us, but it’s gone up to £272 and we have to reserve £100 when we get there so we won’t be returning unless we really are stuck.
Breakfast was great although the table we were at was quite unstable.
The location was great.
The economy room on first night was very small and very dark. Could hardly move. Also paying £250 for it. Felt like we had been given worst room in hotel. We were moved to a better room on the second night
Room was a good size. Breakfast very good. Staff were exceptional.
Our double bed was two twin beds pushed together.
The location was excellent
The outdoor swimming pool tiles are broken, the pool was dirty
You cannot swim in the indoor pool it’s more a splash pool for children
The bedroom was small with a cheap bed base that was all scratched , cheap ikea furniture , definitely not worth the £230 a night cost!!
The property had good places to eat and the staff were very accommodating and helpful. The spa was very good and I had a great massage there!
It is very run down and old. Some areas look like they have not been cleaned in years. There was mold on the sticky mat for the bath which is easy enough to have cleaned. We also chose the housekeeping option and they never changed our towels in 3 days. They only made the bed and took out rubbish- wasn’t really much “housekeeping”. No fridges in the room so we couldn’t keep our toddler’s snacks or milk cold. For somewhere that is child friendly, it doesn’t make sense to not have a fridge. Coffee at breakfast from the machine was terrible. There could have been a better selection of fruit too.
Staff were friendly and helpful. Good choice for breakfast.
Small and very hot room, provided fan which did not improve conditions. No net curtain at window allowing many midge flies in the room. Noise from both guests upstairs and slamming of doors in the corridor.
