Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
From check-in to check-out the staff and amenities were exactly what we needed. Staff were always very friendly and willing to help. Breakfast was delicious and everything you needed to start your day. The pool, steam room, and sauna were excellent for every day use. It was always easy to find parking. We would absolutely come back again, they made our honeymoon feel special. And the town itself was a lovely, welcoming and quiet vacation spot.

The Spa was shut when we attended, the hot tub was broken and the hotel was slightly worn down in places. A very beautiful hotel from the outside, but the paint was damanged inside, the room was dark and empty and it felt more like a normal hotel than a spa. It is very child friendly, to a fault, as there are kids constantly running around doing treasure hunts and playing in the corridors. The food was subpar and fairly pub food like. This would be a fine place to stay for a family having fun for a few days, its not a couples retreat.

Hotel in serious need of repairs. Complained regarding unacceptable water flow in shower, lack of hot water. Advised that it was an old building which had been complained about before on many review. They still mis-sell to customers. Very poor. Dinning was excellent.
