Pros:

Location excellent, food good, trocaderos excellent

Cons:

Booked a castle room, booking website said there was tea making facilities with room, however there was not, called reception who tuned up with tray, however when checking out they charged us £13 for this which I thought was shocking considering we paid £260 for room.

Perfect stay in a lovely hotel.
Pros:

The Crossbasket castle/hotel was absolutely beautiful! The staff was extremely friendly, and the room was stunning. We were delighted to find a lovely fresh fruit platter and delicious chocolates waiting for us when we arrived. The bed was comfortable, and the room was quite large. I can't say enough about the breakfast which was included with our stay. We were greeted with an extensive menu which was cooked to order as well as a nice selection of fruit, pastries and delicious coffee.

The staff arranged for taxi service which I felt was reasonable. However, be warned that the return taxi fee will be double. Therefore, I would recommend uber which is significantly less expensive.

We had an absolutely delightful stay! Our only regret was not staying longer!!!

Cons:

absolutely nothing! Our stay was perfect:-) We would highly recommend this hotel to anyone and as previously mentioned, wish we could have stayed longer!

Soggiorno magico in hotel a 5 stelle con vista sul castello
Pros:

Luogo magico, la nuova struttura che hanno costruito davanti al castello e magnifica è rispecchia al meglio tutte le qualità di un hotel 5 stelle. Abbiamo cenato al ristorante del hotel e abbiamo trovato la cena impeccabile. Sia il castello che il
Parco attorno sono tenuti in modo impeccabile. Ci saremmo fermati volentieri altri giorni.
Ci toneremo sicuramente!

Cons:

Tutto perfetto

This is a nice hotel but would not agree it is worth the price we paid
Pros:

We liked the room that we got moved to, which technically was a downgrade...

Cons:

Value for money. The room in the castle was dirty and dirty and did not smell nice. We had an opened bottle in our fridge that someone drank from. There were no available tables for dinner the night we got there until 8:30pm and no one asked if we wanted to book.

Wonderful Christmas party night.
Pros:

Just home after enjoying our annual friends’ Christmas night out in the Trocadero dining room. The venue is stunning, and the food was excellent. The highlight for us were the band and dancing girls who were happy to come and talk to us…all three of them were extremely talented and definitely added to our evening.
A big shout out too to our waiter, Ewan, who was very attentive. Would definitely recommend if you are looking for somewhere to spend a Christmas night out.

Transformational experience - Let go to Regrow
Pros:

I attended the Autumn Wellness Day Retreat - Let go to regrow. I did not know what to expect. From the start it had the most welcoming and calming affect on me, mostly because of Stuart and Clare’s aura and how relaxed and down to earth they both are. Overall the experience was nothing short of transformational. From the breath work, yoga and journaling, to the connection and let go ritual - all explained throughly through the scientific research - has had a profound impact on my mental state and well-being. I have been able to continue many of the practices learned from that day which has helped me balance motherhood, work, and daily pressures we all face in our busy lives. I feel the most content I have been for years. I cannot recommend this highly enough - to anyone longing for some peace, mental clarity and something more meaningful than a traditional spa day - I think everyone would benefit ❤️
