Initial impressions were good, with a pleasant room. Looking forward to a dip in the pool, it soon became apparent that the leisure facilities cost an additional £10 per person which although on the hotel's Expedia page it was in details which needed scrolling down to. In addition we discovered that the jacuzzi wasn't working. The safe in the room was locked and there was a toenail from a previous occupant on the floor along with multiple crumbs around the table area which suggested that the room hadn't been properly cleaned. The safe issue was sorted quickly and housekeeping came to clean, whilst we enjoyed a complimentary drink. On return to the room 20 minutes later the toenail and crumbs remained in place, which according to the recepttstaff was due to "new vacuum cleaners." We were then moved to a prestige room which, although clean wasn't as nice as the previous room. Breakfast the following morning was haphazard. After being told to sit where we wanted we had to discover from other guests that tea and freshly cooked eggs had to be ordered as this wasn't explained, the remainder of the buffet was average at best. For the same price as charged in the hotel breakfast was available at The Ivy, 5 minutes walk away. Hotel staff tried to make our situation better and waived the car park fee, but on reflection I will not be staying here again and cannot recommend to other visitors

A few issues on check in with a family room booked, hoped to have a bath for our little one.. we eventually got there with a wonderful kind staff member Martin who went above & beyond for not just us but other guests too. He is a real asset to the hotel. We visit fairly often for one night at a time, living only an hour away.. for a break from the daily grind.

I enjoyed using the spa and swimming pool facilities and chose the hotel because of those facilities. The room itself was slightly dated and cold.

Very impressive lobby, dining area and bedroom, which had some nice touches. However, the hotel is let down by the lack of parking spaces, which are on a first come, first serve, basis. Also, overnight parking costs £15.
