The relaxing feeling when you entered the Hotel. The communal rooms were lovely. The hotel was not disapointing very pleased would recom. The location is great, just a 10 minute walk in to town.comfortable and relaxing environment. Level of upkeep of such a property. need to have a shower curtain around tub to avoid getting water everywhere. The bed was lumpy the only disappointment. However this has become thenorm in all the hotels iv ever stayed!. The bed was not very comfortable, and it was adouble which is very small these days. The temperature in the room was quite hot and difficult to regulate. Wanted to use the spa faciliites and the jacuzzi didn't work and noone was available to come to help. The knives in the dining room!. a stool or shelves missing in the bathroom to put things down on. Arrived to find they were not taking credit cards although they did take a cheque. The restaraunt advertised they specialised in "Old English Breeds", when we stayed there was no meat options only fowl and vegetarian options, this was dissappointing as it was a reason for booking the hotel.dvd player and freeview wasnt working. How hot it was temperature set at 24.5 day and night so it wasvery stuffy. We were not made aware that there was building work going on in the gardens and that the gardens were not in use as well as the sauna and hot tub facilities. This was a disappointment. A friends bedroom was ridiculously hot, even when it was -1 outside, andthey couldn't seem to change that. They had to have all the windowsopen, which seems ridiculous, and a big waste of energy.was not told that there was building work taking place. The relaxation room that was advertised was closed due to renavation . we were there on the monday when the builders were in attendance which made parking difficult. Soft mattress!. We were advised that a conference was to be held on one morning duringour stay, however we were only notified early on the morning via a noteunder our door, which meant breakfast was eaten in a public thoroughfareduring preparation (of what would normally be the breakfast room) andarrival of those attending the conference. No provision of plates,cutlery etc meant we had to ask for such items. bath shower combination did not work as nowhere to hang shower so many people use a proper shower now days. room felt incomplete.1. Could not pay by credit card, had to use PayPal on my return home; 2. The restaurant was closed and the website did not disclose this. evening meal first night excellent but 2nd night not to the same standard so slightly disappointing,possibly due to shortage of staff on that night.too smal tables at the breakfast. Couldn't get get the DVD to work. My partner is 6' 3" tall and found our beautiful antique bed a bit on the short side!. Full breakfast should be included not just continental. Staff were inefficient. Reception staff asked if we'd like help with our bag only when we were halfway up three flights of stairs, but didn't really mean it. Serving staff at breakfast were slow, unfriendly and inefficient. Croissant were re-heated and burnt from the previous day. Price of full English breakfast. Selection and cost of main menu. Lack of visible management. Whilst most individals working there werecompetant, efficient and friendly there seemed to be a lack of overallco-ordination/control (customer facing).
