Room was clean and tidy on check-in but because it was very hot the room had no AC but they supplied a fan that did nothing to keep it cool. The staff were lovely and very helpful. The bar was well stocked and had all the drinks I needed. Breakfast was delicious and being a vegetarian the vegan full breakfast even included my favourite vegan black sausage. We had dinner in the restaurant which excellent and the waiting staff were attentive.

The room was a good size, the bed very comfortable the bathroom was good sized. The shower was over the bath with shower curtains, not great for older persons. There was a warning sign about the heated towel rail which was not heated.A request to the duty manager to turn it on, produced no result, nor a report back.
The breakfasts were fine and we were happy to have dinner three nights.
Car parking in front of the hotel was good.
Staff, apart from the duty manager who did not perform or report, were friendly, most were young and seemed to be learning on the job.

While the hotel itself was good the experience with the staff was awful. We had 10 rooms and many, many issues over 3 days that could/should have been easily avoided. A lack of good CX skills, empathy and willingness to address simple things made for a very poor experience. I would not recommend this hotel unfortunately.

We had a lovely clean room with a great view over the town. All the staff were very polite and helpful. Tea and Nespresso machine in the room all worked well.
It is a good walk into town if a bit downhill on the way there and obviously up on the way back (hence the good view.
Parking was ample if a bit tight on space, probably best not to arrive during peak bar hours.
There was a small problem with our breakfast order but this was remedied when it came to light and the staff were very apologetic.
Would deffinitly stay there again.

We had a lovely two night stay over Easter weekend. Parked easily, checked in a bit earlier. Lovely spotless room. Expected a bigger room for a superior room and would have loved a bath. However the shower was good with nice toiletries. Bed a bit too small and lumpy for me. Everything you could need in the room including hairdryer, iron, coffee machine etc. Friendly note left by housekeeping. Bar good for an afternoon drink. Breakfast WONDERFUL!! Loved the choices. Dinner also WONDERFUL. Pricey wine unfortunately. A short 10 minute walk into town with lots of bars, restaurants and shops. Would stay again.

Our bedroom no 15 was next to the lift and we were woken early morning and at night on the two nights we stayed when people used the lift with mind the doors message on several occasions.

We used restaurant on first night but the menu was limited and to make it worse several of the options were not available so we went out to eat on 2nd night.

The staff were excellent and apologetic about the being woken by the lift and lack of menu choice.

Room was very spacious with everything provided. You need to use your mobile to call reception though. Staff interaction was mixed. Dining and bar staff were good but changed every evening (5 nights) so there was no capacity to remember I was GF or that my wine was put away each evening. Reception rarely manned and I had to wait till someone appeared. Reception staff were fine once you spoke to them, but never looked up if you passed by or welcomed you back when you came in at the end of a day out. Nonetheless, I enjoyed my stay.

Limited tight off street “free” parking - amazed that more car park incidents didn’t occur.
Luckily stayed Saturday and Sunday nights, as free street parking after 6 pm and on Sunday directly opposite hotel.
Room initially not available at 2.15 for 3 pm check in.
Cosy comfortable room with coffee pods and tea/coffee/biscuits provided. Beautiful bathroom toiletries. Room at front with views over RTW town. If opt for green option to “Skip the Clean”, then you have to request for extra tea/coffee.
Great cooked breakfast choices to go with continental buffet options. Lovely dining room.
Only downside was yapping dogs in next room every time they were taken out for a walk.

It was the most uncomfortable bed I/ we have ever slept in. We stayed here due to not having any water supply at our house, but having got about 2 hour’s sleep from the bed being like a rock hard board and the pillows being like concrete we decided at 4.30am to go home! Never known anything like it. To add insult to injury the lady on reception made me feel like I was insane when I told her how awful it had been.

The room was immaculate, the staff friendly and welcoming. The food was excellent, hot on arrival where appropriate. My little dog was welcomed and accommodated so I didn't need to put her in the car in order to eat. The area is lovely. The only problem is limited parking - I arrived after an horrendous 8 hour journey to be told they had 2 functions going on so I would have to park on the road and walk back (presumably with my luggage!) I managed to find a corner but they need to bear in mind that parking should be reserved for hotel guests not one off function people. That did spoil my arrival but, other than that, everything was fine.

From start to finish it was bad. Hotel is “dog friendly” booked a superior room and a junior suite. Was told that dogs can only stay in standard rooms however we could stay in the superior room but not the suite….which is weird because if you can change the rules for one room, why not the other.

Bed in the room was completely passed its best. Both myself and my wife found the bed incredibly hard and sunken and the pillows like bricks. Asked for more pillows but was told none were available.

On Sunday the restaurant serves brunch until 1145 but guests must finish breakfast by 10, as the kitchen was closing. Not sure how it could close whilst offering the same dishes until 1145.

After such a disappointment we just wanted to leave. The trainee assistant manager was very proactive in allowing us to checkout early without charge for second night.

Hotels.com promised to speak to the manager when she started at 3pm local time but made no attempt to do so, which as a platinum member was very disappointing but it’s not the first time that they have pulled this stunt. So, still waiting for a partial refund for the first night.

I have stayed at this hotel many times and worn out beds is not acceptable and having no spare pillows is just a poor excuse

Lovely hotel. Easy parking. Nice room (slightly small), with lovely bathroom and toiletries. Delicious breakfast. Had dinner (steak and starters) and red wine- all well cooked and very good value for money! Staff very friendly.

Great overnight stay, couldn’t fault our room and cleanliness. Wonderful breakfast and good parking. Hotel is really well situated for the town centre, on a bit of a hill, and in a quiet area. Would definitely return.

Friendly staff. The room was lovely and clean and was well equipped for my short stay. The only downside for me was that the window in my room were rattling in the wind as they didn't lock/close very securely. I would stay again despite this as overall I was very happy with my stay.

Beautiful

I didn’t know what to expect so I was over the moon when I arrived and saw how beautiful the hotel was. The manager Amy was very kind and made sure my room was suitable to my needs and I was not disappointed, it was stunning. I absolutely loved my room and was very comfortable.
