A nice looking hotel with nice amenities and grounds, short 10 minute walk to the town so easily accessible for all your needs. Hotel is a little dated but room was clean, spacious and comfortable. Breakfast was great, lots of options from cooked English to cereal, fruit and lots of gluten free and vegan options, staff were also very nice and accommodating

Pros - Nice comfortable room. Enjoyed the pool. Excellent communication before and during our stay. Friendly staff. Cons - no EV chargers. No stand for cases in the room. Addition of plant based milk for tea and coffee in the room would be nice.

Breakfast first class, staff really good but there can be a language barrier unfortunately. Bar menu very good but very expensive as the drinks are!! We went to book into the restaurant for our anniversary meal, the staff kindly let us see the menu for Saturday night, but there was very little choice and unfortunately no prices were displayed on the menu, the bar menu had more choice. The entertainment on the Saturday night was meant to start at 8pm, we wrnt down at 7.30pm to get a goid

The exterior of the hotel was fantastic and very charming. The interior, however, was disappointing. There was an unpleasant smell in the room and the hallways. The hotel was very noisy. I accidentally spilled some water in the bathroom and tried to clean it with a towel, which turned completely black.

The rooms are old and VERY noisy, we could hear the music all night because the door doesn’t fit the frame. While sitting in the bar/lounge area, without asking, the lady behind the bar switched the television next to our seats to the loudest level possible, chasing almost all guest to the far end of the area. Hydro must stand for Water Damage: the floor part to the bathroom moved while walking over - you could feel which plank was affected by moisture -

The Hydro is a grand looking building from the outside, but inside looks quite tired and in desperate need of an overhaul. The bedroom we had felt very dated and aside from stained carpets, the woodwork has been badly painted and left many of the sash & case windows painted shut. We only stayed for one night so not a huge issue, but the hotel definitely needs revamped. Personally, for the money we paid, we wouldn't book it again, or recommend it to others.

The tranquil surroundings.

Nice homely hotel, with a nice bar with very comfortable seating with a good choice of beers. Nice looking out at the distant view in the mornings with the snow covered hills and nearby properties it was nice getting out in the clean fresh air with very little traffic about.
