A tired hotel

Rooms available but we were not allowed access till 3 which was difficult because we had travelled a long journey and had to change to meet friends for lunch. Breakfast was not 4 star. Tinned fruit and plastic pots of jam are way below standard. Room was much too hot even with windows open. Choice of beer in bar poor

Very expensive fo a room for 3 adults which had a small extra bed in, not enough towels or hot drink facilities etc. for 3 adults. Took a deposit from my account which I am still waiting to be refunded 5 days on. A dated hotel, not worth £200 (not including breakfast).

Lovely Views and Decent Parking

The hotel is in a perfect location and we managed to get parking close by. Parking was £2.50 for 2 days so considered that a good deal. The hotel is a little tired but comfortable and the pool was lovely. The ice room was amazing but a little disappointed the sauna was closed on the day we went.

I liked the Spa & Gym, the jewel in the crown, ruined by being told that we get towels provided, but not of the same size as those in the rooms (they weren't huge). 1 of 2 lifts were out of order over our 4 night stay.. With a 4 star hotel we expected air conditioning in the rooms, but none. There was air con in the restaurant, so out of the furnace into the very cold dinning room! The room was adequate, not 4 star special. We requested and certainly paid for a sea view room, which was ruined because the outside of the window was filthy ( it could easily have be cleaned safely from inside the room. Poor management. 2nd day breakfast I was appalled that we were sat at a table eating our breakfast but were surrounded by tables that hadn't been cleared. Made worse because on the other side of the room there was a waitress laying up tables where no one else was about. I was getting coffee from the machine when a women guest said to me " I wouldn't do that the coffee is bloody awful from those machines" I tried it she was right, I drank water for the rest of my stay Poor management, no management, 4 star hotel, you must be joking. We had dinner the 1st night, chicken supreme, was lumps of dry chicken pieces dumped on a vegetable risotto (I expected the risotto) but no finesse. We eat elsewhere after that. Very disappointing I paid 4 star price at over £200 per night, worth £50 at best.

Expensive for what it is

Staff are very friendly but the hotel was a disappointment for a 4 star "luxury" hotel. Desperately in need of decoration inside and out but also needs the garden and outside seating areas tidying at the very least. Both lifts not working which wasn't a problem for us but lots of guests were struggling with the stairs. The duvet cover in our room would have been relegated to a dustsheet at home. We didnt spend much time in our room as staying overnight for a concert but because of this paid an eye watering amount for very below par room. Despite being shabby the room was clean.
