Disliked: Staff & service
Well situated although difficult to drive to unless you’ve booked a concierge service to drive through bollards to get to front of hotel then park your car in a multi storey for you.
Room comfortable but on arrival no soap to wash hands and toilet handle didn’t work.
Bar in evening for a late drink comfortable and staff attentive. However, breakfast was a shambles it took an hour and a half to serve yoghurt and fruit, cooked English breakfast and coffee. Our order was lost, toast had to be ordered three times before it arrives, cooked food arrived late so toast & coffee stone cold had to be reordered. Quite stressful almost having to beg staff to get our breakfast items. This despite the fact the restaurant was only half full and seemingly with plenty of staff. Not what we were used to in previous visits.
The hotel gave the impression of being rather down at heel and scruffy, staff trying but not very focused and the doorman/concierge actually turned his back to the entrance doors despite seeing us getting out of our taxi.
I met the Customer Relations Manager before leaving to express my sadness and disappointment with our experience this time. She listened carefully, was charming and apologised, didn’t charge us for breakfast and gave us her card so she could make sure our next visit was better.
