We had an excellent time during our stay at this hotel, which has become a yearly tradition for us. This was our third time here, and we keep coming back because it consistently delivers a fantastic experience. The hotel is clean, safe, and beautifully decorated, especially during Christmas—it really adds to the festive atmosphere. One of our favorite features is the heated outdoor swimming pool. There’s nothing quite like enjoying a warm swim on a chilly night. The ambiance is relaxing and inviting. However, we would love it if the pool’s opening hours could be extended until 10 pm instead of closing at 9 pm. While most aspects of our stay were superb, the breakfast experience fell a little short. The staff seemed rushed, and the options were not clearly communicated. Although we paid for breakfast, we were surprised to find additional charges for certain items like a cappuccino. While this was resolved at checkout without any issue, it would be great if the complimentary options were explained more clearly and offered proactively. Overall, though, everything else was fantastic, as it has been every year. We’re already looking forward to our next visit!

The sink in our bathroom was badly cracked and unhygienic. The heated towel rail was broken and even though I reported it nothing was done. The breakfast was poor. The bed was comfortable There was a large air conditioner right outside our window which was noisy all night I think because we booked with Expedia we were given the worst possible room.

Lovely Two Night Stay despite horrible weather
There were some unfair comments online made about the hotel which I disagree with. The hotel met our expectations and the staff were very friendly and helpful. It was just transitioning into Christmas and the decorations and aroma in reception and the lounges was beautiful. The Spa was reasonably quiet and we found the saunas and outdoor pool to be clean and enjoyable. Our room was also lovely and our only issue was that it took ages to get warm (not hot) water from bath and sink taps. The towel rail was also cold throughout the duration of our two night stay. However, it was probably our fault for not complaining about his

Everything was great until breakfast, which was absolutely awful. Dirty table which the waitress wiped with her hand, had to ask for our hot drinks 3 times, waited 10 minutes for the orange juice to be refilled, brought my partners scrambled egg and smoked salmon but not the toast ( asked again but still no delivery of toast). By the time it did come the egg was stone cold so I asked for the order to be replaced. Basically they stuck it in the microwave and gave it back to her ( still wasn’t very hot). By this time my cooked breakfast was cold. Staff all looked very stressed and were matching about - very inattentive I should really have asked for a full refund but as there was only one staff member on reception when we checked out I just left it I have to say we were very disappointed
