Was not told about the two different key cards one for the pool and one for the room. Went down to the pool from the 4th floor and couldn’t access the pool with my room key. Had to calll reception on my mobile to get someone to let me in. The next morning I took both cards and neither worked. Had to call again to get in. Apparently you have to ask if you want to use it the next morning and get the card adjusted appropriately to access it again.

Very clean. Excellent gym , pool and sauna. Comfortable. 1 min walk from train. Organic option available. Lovely bath robes. Helpful staff. Problems resolved quickly and smoothly. Free breakfast would be expected in nearly £100 per night room. Signs needed to figure how to use the lift. Sauna would be nicer if it had privacy glass. Toiletries are not organic/eco - just chemically and packaged as luxury. Head baord not comfy to sit up in bed.

Familiar Territory

I have stayed at the hotel many times. The rooms are comfortable and the staff are excellent, and consistently so. Some of the lounge furnishings are a little careworn and seven or so odd years after opening, they could be replaced while the range of spirits on the bar could be wider. But as a place to stay the connections are excellent.
