Beautiful place and very close to all the amenities.
Unfortunately, the level of customer service fell far below what we expected, particularly considering the price of almost £400 per night.
Both the reception and restaurant appeared severely understaffed and the staff we encountered did not seem particularly attentive or willing to assist. At times, it genuinely felt as though asking for help was an inconvenience to them.
When we arrived, we wanted to have dinner in the restaurant but were told this would not be possible because they were short-staffed and that we should eat in the bar instead. However, the bar was also clearly understaffed, with two members of staff trying to manage everything and they were struggling to cope.
Overall, the hotel felt noticeably short-staffed and there was a real lack of customer service throughout our stay. For a hotel charging almost £400 per night, I would have expected a significantly higher standard of service, attentiveness and overall guest experience.
Lovely Hotel, staff very friendly and proffesional.
Hair dryer in room didn't work, syaff brought me another one and that one broke as well.
Location and room was lovely
The only thing the breakfast buffet was a bit cold sausages and the eggs particularly
hotel amazing location great staff so help full yes would stay there again
every thing was great
Muy buena experiencia. La ubicación es excelente, con una vista muy linda, y la cama fue especialmente cómoda. También destacamos el desayuno, que estuvo muy bien. En general, una estadía muy agradable.
Todo estuvo muy bien.
The staff were welcoming and helpful. My room was upgraded as they noticed that my grandson was travelling with me and gave him a ‘goodie’ bag which he was delighted with.
That I didn’t stay there longer!
Absolutely nothing.
Location great near train station,clean and spacious double room to myself,friendly staff
Liked everything, perhaps a long walk and 2 lifts to my room as a woman on my own a little concerning
Great room. Beautiful location
Quite expensive which I was fine with but then you also had to pay for parking and after you've paid, if you go out there's no guarantee of a carpark still being available when you get back.
The staff in the fitness/pool area were extremely rude. Female staff member was sitting on the desk flirting with the male staff member and our presence was clearly unwanted
The property was right next to the train station so perfectly located.
We selected a less expensive room and ended up on the third floor that was very warm. The vendor did open which helped. We could not get sufficient cooling from the air conditioning but did not report the issue . Other than the room being warm, it was a great room.. clean, comfortable and quiet.All the staff we dealt with were great.
