Room was clean, beds comfortable but not a fan of mood lighting. With no light above mirror, room was quite dismal. Apart from small bedside lights covered by long shades thereby blocking light there was standard lamp with same style shades and overhead lights at door same as others. Room needs proper overhead light at mirror. Staff and food excellent as always but £5.15 for a bottle of plain water in room is extortionate.

Okay but needs an upgrade
Reception staff and restaurant staff were all very good, but the hotel is ordinary. Mattresses felt cheap, crunchy sheets and towels and the thinnest duvet. I couldn’t get warm on our second night. An investment into mattress toppers and cosy bedding and towels would give you a much higher rating. Luxuries you expect at a spa hotel!

Spa not included
Hotel was exceptional, however to use the Spa was £20 per hour. This hotel was advertised on Hotels as having a spa and i paid considerably more for this hotel compared to others nearby as a result. If i book direct with the hotel then the spa is included, this devalues the Hotels.com price. All other hotels i stay at include the Spa when it is advertised.

Poor food offer
Decent hotel. Little overpriced. Clean and reasonble sized beds and bedrooms. Restaurant service is abysmal. Breakfast order must be given immediately server welcomes you or the wait can be an age. The breakfast is usually poor to average. Evening menu is poor. Food is average
