A slightly disappointing stay, but OK for one night.
Pros:

Due to a lack of staff, the bar and restaurant services were below par. The food was adequate, but not quite what I expected. The bar service was slow, but in fairness to the bar staff for the most part there was only one person on duty, and she had to double up in the restaurant with serving up food.
Overall, the hotel is adequate for overnight stays, but falls short for longer stays.

Cons:

Staffing was inadequate.

The hotel is nicely situated, but the experience was disappointing.
Pros:

The hotel was very well located for the activity the next day. The view over the lake is interesting. Check-in was straightforward. The room was fine and the bed comfortable.

Cons:

The shower was in a bath that was quite high and not easy to exit, with no assistance, such as handrails. The evening meal was not well done. There were insufficient staff, who, despite their best efforts, could not keep up with the demand for food. The dishes for our table of four were each delivered individually, with delays between them, which spoiled the dinner for us. Two members of our party ordered the sticky toffee pudding. It wasn't a sticky toffee pudding - just a steamed sponge with syrup. And the kitchen had run out of vanilla ice cream, so we had raspberry ice cream - interesting... At breakfast, there was no coffee, so we had to make Nescafe with water that was merely warm.

I think this place would have been majestic in its hay day. Money sunk into resort back it's glory
Pros:

It was close to other facilities eg park
I liked the pond and the mural on the ceiling also the black shiny tiles on the bathroom floor

Cons:

I didn't have breakfast because I thought it was too expensive and only available for 1hr 30min

Ok
Pros:

Nice large secure car park.

Cons:

It is a dared hotel and rooms could do with an upgrade. Staff in restaurants did not have a clue on evening.
Took orders yet forgot who ordered and kept walking about shouting who’s ordered what.

Bit old fashioned but serves its purpose.
Pros:

Bed was comfortable and the breakfast was good and that’s all I really needed.

Cons:

Could really do with some modernising, having to carry around a huge brass keyring and key isn’t ideal. The room was clean but very dated, I also had noise from outside as the hinges on the window were obviously knackered and the window wouldn’t close properly.

Good hotel within reach of the M3
Pros:

Big quiet room with excellent air conditioning
Very comfortable bed
Plenty of free parking
Very good wifi
Good food
Very friendly staff
Good sized bar area

Cons:

A bit disappointed by the lake view ( important reason for choosing the hotel) mainly because of the algae
The dinner menu was rather standard and could do with some more healthy options.
Steps up to reception won’t be welcome by everyone ( but there is a lift nearby)

Not bad
Pros:

Breakfast, would have liked some fruit. Room was lovely, great view - a little outdated but I quite liked the quickness. The vibe was a bit strange since it was next to a deserted holiday park - shame.

Cons:

Difficulty connecting computer to internet, not sure what happened, my phone was able to connect? Staff were great though and did what they could.
