Pros:

Functional, easy parking, easy reach from the M25, clean, bedding good, shower nice. Good tv and hair dryer

Cons:

Avoid staying on the 7th floor. The noise from the 8th floor bar/breakfast kept me awake late and early. Especially the movement of furniture. Room was warm. I switched aircon off as don’t like the noise. Natural temperature was hot. The electric control panel lit up seemingly every 30 seconds. Very disturbing all night. Shower products seem branded but watery and notwith a very interesting scent. Suspect low cost product. Sausages at breakfast salty and not that delicious. Scrambled egg funny texture. All in all I just didn’t love it. All functional nothing that would tempt me back

We enjoyed our stay at the property very convenient but perhaps a little over priced for the actual luxury you get luxu
Pros:

Clean and convenient as a stop off

Cons:

The proximity to the road and also we were upgraded but instead of being upgraded to a bigger room with a bath we were given a bigger room with disability conveniences and a walk in shower ?

Excellent Hotel, and next door to Sandy Park
Pros:

From the moment we arrived, the staff were very pleasant and welcoming. We were attending an event at Sandy Park, adjacent to the hotel, and so its perfectly positioned ! .... The rooms are excellent, comfortable and relaxing, and exceeded our expectations. The breakfast was very good, but surpassed by the stunning views of the Devon Countryside, from the Restaurant

Cons:

Nothing, everything was excellent

Pros:

Location and facilities were good for next day commute

Cons:

The air conditioning wasn’t working for the second consecutive stay and the room was at 25deg making for an uncomfortable night. Despite the night staff trying to assist this couldn’t be sorted.
Having breakfast and the cleaner was hoovering around us .. very unprofessional and unhygienic
