A comfortable stay with great leisure facilities, friendly staff, and excellent service.
Pros:

We had a very enjoyable stay. The rooms are a good size, comfortable, and have all the essentials needed for a pleasant stay. Having an in-house restaurant is very convenient, especially after a busy day.

The hotel has a good-sized swimming pool, and the jacuzzi and steam room are a great bonus for relaxing. There is also a decent-sized gym with everything needed for a workout.

The reception staff were friendly, helpful, and professional. I had an issue with a restaurant booking which resulted in an unexpected no-show charge, but the reception team handled the situation very professionally and arranged a refund without any hassle. Their approach and customer service were greatly appreciated.

Overall, a comfortable and enjoyable stay with good leisure facilities, convenient dining, and excellent service from the reception team.

Cons:

The décor is a little dated, and the rooms, bathrooms, and showers would benefit from some modernisation. We experienced an issue with the toilet flush, but I must emphasise that the staff responded promptly and had it fixed the same day.

The swimming pool booking system could also be improved. It feels somewhat unnecessary and overcomplicated, especially as the pool never appeared to be overcrowded during our stay. A simpler, more flexible system — or perhaps removing the booking requirement altogether — would make the pool experience much more convenient and enjoyable for guests.

Very relaxing overnight stay could have done with a 12:00 noon checkout as opposed to 11:00
Pros:

Reception very informative when checking in.
Rooms clean and tidy and smelled fresh
Restaurant a little disappointing as wife is quite a fussy eater and most of the menu was smoked
Breakfast however very good indeed plenty to choose from hot or cold
Spa facilities very good and relaxing

Cons:

Restaurant could have a slightly better selection of normal cooked meals not smoked

So relaxing
Pros:

Just love it there. One thing we didn’t like was that we were unable to have a coffee or tea at the bar in reception when we came back around 11pm
We have done this before. Not everyone wants alcohol!!

Nice room and quiet, so slept well. Food in the grill was "never mind the quality, feel the width".
Pros:

pleasant reception staff. Accommodating restaurant reception (I changed my time). Tesla car chargers. Nice bar area and outdoor area.

Cons:

Car parking charge of £13.50 is a shock - never paid this anywhere in the world.

Breakfast was poor. All overcooked and bland. No yoghurt / fruit / nuts option. Machine coffee tasteless. Poor value for money.

A very good stay with good facilities and perfect for the large group of golfing ladies.
Pros:

The room was good and very clean. It was not cleaned my first day but after that it was. The breakfast was excellent with a lot of choice of food and drink.

Cons:

The meal we had was a buffet in the Langston suite which on the first evening was not up to standard. The plates were cold, the vegetables were uncooked and the food was warm. This was however rectified the following evening when we had a nice meal. The staff were all very good and listened to the issues we were having.

Bad parking charge, outdated rooms, very average bfast. Good pool/gym and facilities.
Pros:

It was very close to the place that I work. The swimming pool and facilities were quite nice to have.

Cons:

The parking charge is attorcious. Really should not be having that at all.

Room was outdated. I was given a room at the end of a very very long corridor, which took some time to get to. Bfast was average, with basic items.

Comfortable but crazy bar prices
Pros:

Comfortable rooms, good food

Cons:

The bar prices. £16 for a large glass of average wine is utterly ridiculous.
