Lovely weekend
Lovely, comfortable and warm room despite the weather conditions!! Price was incredible, breakfast fresh with plenty of range as usual. Use of the pool, steam room and sauna was a perk and really made the stay perfect! Fabulous weekend!

Car park was a sting
Dissaointed had to pay £14 for one night parking. Guy serving at reception was effective but not very smiley / congenial. Young girl in the bar was excellent. Attentive active smiley and chatty. Breakfast was good but no black pudding in the land that perfected it.

Very good hotel. Very expensive parking
Excellent check-in experience. I asked for a certain type of room and they did their best to accommodate. Although the hotel is a bit 'Bangy' the rooms are comfortable and well-appointed. The corridors and rooms are looking a bit dated now but there is a major refurb going on that should sort that. Perhaps they can put soft-close bedroom doors on as well. Parking for residents is a rip-off.

Nice staff, breakfast especially the pancake machine, and room. The walls were a little thin because I could hear the tv in the next room. Overall, a great stay.
