I was required two room next to each other but we end up getting another room on the 1st floor and another room on the 4th floor. I was booking two room together but then seem like the reception have no idea give me only 1 room then I have to ask her again for another room and haven’t tell us much about welcome to hotel when we check in. Also we need to be careful the lift door. It suddenly close and take my daughter up by herself and almost close on my arm when I try to get in. We press the botton to keep it open but it wasn’t working. But overall the room are great and the cleaning staffs are friendly.

Spa was dirty - green and smelly. Unsure how often they change the water. No parking for in house guests when a function is on Not maintained, needs a revamp and a good clean up. Arrived at 2.30pm and staff had to check if it had been cleaned for check in. Manager tried and was lovely. Elevators always seemed held up by cleaners bringing their trolleys up and down. Such a shame it’s not as professional as other hotels, Would not stay again.

24 hr reception but nobody at counter at 5 pmish and no bell to summons someone, after waiting 5 minutes or so I called out. The room itself was comfortable and reasonably clean. Long hair on floor in the bathroom. Not sure why some hotels stuff 2 pillows into one pillow protector and try to pass it off as a new one. These are bulky, burst out of their pillow slips and look like exactly what they are. Not a good look in hotels that consider themselves upmarket. Despite my minor irritations we would stay here again.

Arrived at 1.15pm, said sorry were a bit early, any chance of a check in? I got an abrupt "No. 2pm is check in".... I understand there are rules, but a sorry we're still getting the room ready or something similar would have been nice. Extraction fan in the bathroom wasn't working either. Maintenance informed us there were 5 through the hotel waiting to get replaced

Everything was just tired. The decor, the carpets, the paintwork. The room was comfortable but dated. Bathroom was cramped and shabby. Having said that we’d stay again, the rate was okay, the breakfast limited but ok to start the day. Staff we met were fine, just not many of them. The restaurant is closed for meals, wish we knew beforehand.
