Great location, three star hotel which was disappointing.
Pros:

Excellent location. The room was a good size and nicely decorated with lovely touletries. Breakfast was pleasant. However more three star than four overall.

Cons:

The parking is terrible. Designated parking fills up so you have to use public pay parking. As it’s in the village centre there is nowhere to drop off. Sadly we found that staff were somewhat begrudging in their approach to service. Some pleasant individuals but overall the sense was that service was not important. They also looked rather scruffy and not representative of a four star hotel. We sat in lounge on the day of the Wimbledon Gentlemen’s singles final and turned the TV on with no sound. We checked with the only other couple in there first and they were fine with it. Five minutes later a member of staff came over, turned it off and said we couldn’t watch it. It wasn’t “that sort of hotel with a sports bar”. Very abrupt and not at all apologetic. It reflects the attitude of the staff overall. The outside bar across the road was much better. Lovely staff, great view and great food.
