A beautiful property with strong intent and design, but the experience currently falls short on exec
Pros:

The building and design are beautiful, and the rooms felt thoughtfully considered and genuinely comfortable. The porter and cocktail team member were warm, knowledgeable, and a real credit to the experience. The location is peaceful and restorative, which suits the Wildhive ethos well.

Cons:

Service felt inconsistent and at times poorly handled, particularly around dinner and wellness facilities, where issues were met defensively or without follow-through. Food quality and execution didn’t match the price point, and activities such as sauna use and bike hire felt under-curated and disorganised. More proactive, informed service would make a significant difference.

Sublime - they’ve created an amazing alchemy here.
Pros:

The staff were amazing - I’ve never stayed in a more hospitable hotel, where each member of staff was genuinely interested in making your stay perfect. They all seemed so passionate about their roles; I take my hat off to the management/owners, they should be so proud.

Cons:

Utterly minor but the lovely gym could do with a daily check to refill water/put air con on. It was hardly used (but brand new and awesome) which may be a valid reason for the oversight.

Lovely hotel but the experience doesn’t live upto the price
Pros:

Beautiful hotel and setting - 10 out of 10. The spa and Natalie (the massage therapist) was amazing.

Cons:

The hotel had ran out of a lot of the basics - slippers/ shaving kits even certain items on the menu and whilst they clean your room nothing is replenished so you have to call and request things.

Most of the staff are fabulous but the folk in the restaurant were not helpful, they didn’t know the menu and couldn’t answer any questions about the menu. You felt rushed everytime you sat down, as youre charged a 10% gratuity fee for every interaction (including pouring a drink) you’d expect the staff to at least be polite.
