Reviews and Ratings
The hotel has its ups and downs. The rooms are clean and comfortable with nice extra touches, but they can feel stuffy and too hot at times. The service is friendly and helpful, especially Amy in the restaurant. The location is nice, although a bit pricey, with some attractions accessible by car. The dining experience is varied, but service can be slow during events. Overall, a decent stay with some room for improvement.
I received a very warm welcome upon arrival to the beautifully decorated and well-maintained rooms which featured comfy king size beds and a nice bathroom. The upgraded room was superb, definitely worth the extra cost. The staff were friendly and helpful overall, but there was an incident of staff entering the room without permission despite the 'do not disturb' sign.
The hotel was absolutely stunning, exceeding my expectations with the spacious and beautifully designed rooms and a lovely tub just outside. The service was exceptional, with all staff being extremely kind, helpful, and efficient. The location was perfect, offering comfort, cleanliness, and great food. The dining experience was delightful, with friendly and professional staff. The overall experience was fantastic, with just a few minor drawbacks.
I had a wonderful stay at the hotel. The rooms were lovely, spacious, and contained everything I needed, including a safe, ironing board, and complimentary items in the fridge. The service was top-notch with welcoming staff, and the price was definitely worth it. The location was convenient for sightseeing, albeit a bit noisy at times. The dining experience was pleasant with a good choice of options. Overall, a great value for money hotel with fantastic amenities.
