Last Minute Bucher. ohne Erwartungen
Pros:

Hatten es noch am selben Tag gebucht und waren Froh überhaupt ein Zimmer zu finden.
In einem 150 Jahre alten Schloss zu übernachten war sehr Spannend.

Cons:

Das Frühstück war semi. Gut. Die Backwaren waren eher Kalt und Weich. Der Kaffee könnte auch besser sein.
Das Badezimmer war sehr rustchig bzw ölig.

Restaurant wasn't open the day I arrived. They charge 15 pounds for a mediocre continental breakfast with no hot food.

Clean, comfortable and spacious.
Pros:

Although a little dated the hotel was very well looked after and exceptionally clean. The location was great, a short walk to town. Ample parking, nice grounds, impressive building and lovely traditional communal areas.
The room was a little bit dated, but very clean and spacious with a large bed and everything we needed. Towels were lovely and fluffy, appreciated the heated towel rail. Shower had good pressure and hot water.
Nice view of trees outside.
We had breakfast at the sister hotel which was great.

Cons:

We had a great stay, rooms could be more luxury with a few additions.

Grand Bedroom with Ensuite Jacuzzi
Pros:

The room was very grand with plenty of vintage furniture. The views were amazing and the ensuite was fantastic.

Cons:

Some of the facilities were a bit out dated. The bed although clearly vintage could do with its screws tightening or replacing. Didnt like the fact we were given kitchen timings for meals and when it came to breakfast there was only a continental option which considering what we paid for the stay felt unjust. We ended up going into town and getting a cooked breakfast for extra expense.

Nie wieder! Völlig dreister Preis!
Pros:

Die Lage und der Anblick von außen.

Cons:

Total runtergekommenes Hotel. Riecht muffig, überall Schäden. Unfreundliches Personal (außer die Frühstücksbedienung). Im Bad Wanne kaputt, keine Steckdosen. Toilettenspülung ging nicht. Überall Risse, Löcher, kaputte Fenster. Frühstücksbuffet lies auch eher zu wünschen übrig. Dafür ist der Preis von ca. 200,-€ echt frech! In der Nacht zum Sonntag war bis weit nach Mitternacht Krach. Als ob jemand die Einrichtung zerlegt. Antwort vom Personal: wir hätten ja nach einem anderen Zimmer fragen können.
