It was a pleasant visit, I enjoyed a lovely dinner by the water and came back to a clean room and comfortable bed.
Pros:

Beautiful location for a nice sea side getaway, or Easter holiday. Staff were nice. They were able to accommodate my allergies.

Cons:

Bathroom smelled of paint and windows are older so they couldn’t lock efficiently.

A very relaxing , peaceful stay.
Pros:

I specified a room with a bath, but the room I was given didn’t have one. The reception staff were very friendly and efficient and moved me to a room with a bath without any fuss.

Cons:

There was nothing I didn’t like.

Very poor for a 4 star
Pros:

Stayed for a family party. Food at the event was good, although event runner thought opening welcome drink at 6 for dinner at 6.05 was a good idea. Room we had was large, and had a separate bunk bed room for our daughter, which was welcome. Hot water pressure was a joke, barely able to clean ourselves. Shower drain was very slow draining so you end up standing in dirty soapy water. As a result of the slow drain, it also leaks. Bathroom tiles are missing grout so just asking for the floor to rot. No bedside plug point in the 21st century. Families with children under 12 are basically excluded from using the swimming pool. Car park ev charge points also don't work.

Great location, poor breakfast service
Pros:

Since we last visited 4 years ago, the spa has had investment and been improved, but the breakfast service has declined. Unlike previously where you were served tea/coffee and toast at the table you now have to go and queue to get your drinks and toast from plastic bags or tins. Not really 4-star service.

Good location but a bit dated and expensive
Pros:

Hotel has great view towards the waterfront.
Parking on site and easy walks nearby
We had to book an extra night and the cost was double we paid for the initial night via Expedia.
Food and drink very expensive
Lift was not working so everyone using the stairs
Room was old fashioned in decor
Comfortable overall but not worth the rate we paid for the extra night
