The room was spacious, warm and comfortable but our sleep was disturbed by noise from a private function. Guests ran along corridor to toilets slamming doors. We enjoyed using spa facilities, lovely pool and jacuzzi. It was easy to pay for a late checkout so that we could visit the spa after breakfast then leave at 12.00. Disappointed that breakfast was a buffet self service. For a 4 star hotel I would expect a menu. Would have liked eggs Benedict but the cooked choice was basic, I have had better breakfast in 3 star b&bs . Sadly it was no better than a premier inn breakfast.

The staff were very friendly and helpful and there was a nice relaxed atmosphere in the hotel. It was very clean and our room was cleaned and towels replaced each day of our stay. Breakfast was well cooked and the evening meal was pleasant though not exciting. The decor was rather tired and the changing area for the pool was in need of refurbishment. The sauna was not working. The pool itself was clean and at a nice temperature. Over all we enjoyed our stay.

Hotel is well located and it’s rooms are spacious. The pool was great, nice and warm. Perhaps a small toddler playpen in changing area would be beneficial to allow parents to get ready safely. Unfortunately we found the room to be terribly cold throughout the night, there are small oil heaters provided however with the high ceilings it was very cold. The hotel were very accommodating in providing two travel cots for our 1 year old twins, the room allowed plenty room for these. Unfortunately the layout of the hotel wasn’t suitable for our double buggy either, lift wasn’t big enough to allow us to use it so we did have to lug up our luggage and two babies.

The hotel bedrooms were just far too cold and no heating in the bathroom for our whole stay. We reported it to reception, but was not repaired during our stay. It's an old building, but it was very uncomfortable and would make us not return.
