Lovely hotel but wouldn’t go for the spa.
Pros:

Beautiful hotel. Very helpful and friendly staff.

Cons:

The spa is nice but there are some unusual aspects to it. There is only one place to lie on loungers to relax and read and that is in the main pool room. The temperature in this room is so overpoweringly hot it is very unpleasant and the lighting is so low reading is not possible. There is an indoor/outdoor pool upstairs with lots of room for loungers inside but sadly there are just 4 wooden upright chairs. This would be a lovely place to relax but unfortunately no comfortable seating is available which is strange for a spa. There are no jacuzzis at this spa other than some weak jets in the outdoor pool. The steam room is not hot……..This could be an amazing spa but sadly isn’t but obviously this is just my personal preference.

Lovely and enjoyable jus not long enough
Pros:

It was lovely and clean.

Cons:

The spa times for guests. We came to enjoy the spa as my mum and dad were going to a show.
We could only check in at 3 and then with tea at 6 it only gave us a couple of hours to enjoy it.
It would have Been nice to be able to have had a late night swim and relax so I think the pools should be open to guests staying at the hotel later times

Never again
Pros:

The spa was ok
Concierge was friendly

Cons:

The breakfast was awful and the staff were young and unfriendly. The room was noisy as it was over the spa which seemed to be constantly business. Too busy it ran out of towels. Every morning we were woken up by 7.30 am
When the spa opened. I spoke to manager who did little and seemed not to care. We stay all
Over the world and she was hands down not interested in making our stay better. She offered us a refund for Breakfast as the cooked breakfast came late and without bacon but despite numerous emails we have not had a refund for part of the stay let alone
The awful breakfast.

It’s one thing having a poor stay it’s another when nothing is done to rectify - poor customer
Service on every level. 3 stars at best.

Excellent location but very average ….
Pros:

Excellent location

Cons:

The room was very small and there were a pair of socks belonging to a previous guest in the wardrobe 😩 water was left in the kettle and there were areas of the spa that were grubby and not what was expected from a hotel of this stature.
