Eslington Manor Experience
Pros:

The old building, the grounds, close to a lovely park to walk in. Very friendly and helpful staff.

Cons:

There was no bath robe in the room.
The whole hot water tap on the hand basin twists to the left to turn it off completely.. it needs to be looked at.

Pros:

这里每一位工作人员都很亲切,如果你想体验老别墅的生活,可以来感受下。

Cons:

门口并不是一直有人值守,安全性上有点担心。最后一天晚上10点多,突然有人要破门而入我的房间,试图打开我的房门两次,这让我感觉很不安全。
另外我住的这间地板是斜着的,床也是斜着的,这点需要适应一下。

Pleasant holiday
Pros:

Nice historic building not grandiose but homely.

Lovely grounds (no disabled access to grounds though)

Staff very helpful and pleasant
Decor in public rooms very nice.

Restaurant very good quality food but limited menu.

Good Parking

Cons:

No Restaurant service after 5 pm on Sundays.

Closed bar early despite being told bar would be open until 10:30. (Closed at 10:10)

Choice of cocktails limited by lack of ingredients.

No WiFi in my room (Holly)
Room decor tired and needs a refurb.

Room in an annex so if it rains expect to get wet if you want dinner. A pleasant stay over 8 nights.
Good relaxing atmosphere.

Overall probably better to stay somewhere else but come here for dinner (except Sundays)

An excellent experience
Pros:

Exceeded expectations. Great hotel. Food surprisingly excellent. Wonderful staff

Cons:

My room was at the top of the hotel and as the weather was hot, my room was very warm. Also check prior to arrival which rooms have showers as mine only had a bath, which I only realised once I was there

Just lovely, will be back!
Pros:

Lovely relaxing hotel with lots of old world charm but well maintained. Friendly staff and I loved the music (both a live singer on arrival, then background music) playing downstairs, added atmosphere but wasn’t at all noisy.

Cons:

My only slight gripe is only a blind, no curtains in my room. In the summer mo the that definitely makes for an early bright wake up.

Mini Break.
Pros:

The breakfast

Cons:

The room was far too hot. As they are the old type of sash window, which were painted shut! I asked for a fan, which I did receive, but it was still very hot. We'd already moved rooms, as the TV in the first room didn't work. Which the girl behind the reception desk was aware of. So why wasn't this fixed before letting the room again. The rooms themselves are a little tired. But I appreciate that the upkeep on this type of property must be huge. The first evening we ate in their restaurant, I had a burger, which was mediocre, husband had a garden pie, which seemed to consist of peas and carrots. Not great value for money. The best thing was the breakfast. I had a fully cooked breakfast the first morning, and eggs benidict for the next two mornings, these were all very well cooked.

Jammer van het warm water probleem, voor de rest een leuk hotel.
Pros:

Heerlijk gegeten. Zowel diner als ontbijt.
Het hotel heeft een gezellige bar.

Cons:

We hadden geen warm water op de kamer door problemen met een boiler. Dat was al bij aankomst zo én de volgende ochtend nog steeds.
De op zich mooi tuin en terras kunnen wel wat onderhoud gebruiken waardoor het meer uitnodigt om bij goed weer buiten te gaan zitten.
