Disappointing
Cant understand the recent 10/10 reviews. Property felt like a soleless business hotel. Lots of events taking place through the day attended by non-guests. Very busy feel between this and members to the spa. The room was clean, but the view of a roof and ventilation shafts not really what id expect of one of the nicer rooms. There was drilling work going on late into the evening. I had to go down to reception to resolve and was kept waiting roughly 45mins. The manager was very apologetic and comped us a bottle of wine which i really appreciated. But ultimately I wouldnt ever stay here again.
