"The hotel was lovely but when we arrived we were told there was a party going on in the conference room that would be loud and going on till midnight. We were taken to our room and the noise was ridiculous so they kindly moved us to another room. Unfortunately this room was no better so what was supposed to be a relaxing stay meant we didn’t get to sleep till midnight. Would have been nice to know beforehand so we could have stayed elsewhere! "

"The air conditioning was good but the rooms are too small "

"We were pretty disappointed as we were expecting a bit more of an experience from this stay, and the price that we paid. Having thought we had booked a “Cell” room, it was evident we hadn’t and were told we needed to specifically select that on booking, though this wasn't clear at all on booking. Having paid quite a high price, the room was a glorified premier Inn room. We were on a stay with friends who had booked as cell room, having paid quite a bit more than us, who had some real issues with cleanliness in their room. While this wasnt our experience, there was a lack of amenities. Described in the room we had booked were coffee/tea maker aswell as a kettle, however we did only have a kettle. We paid over £250 just for a pretty standard room, no breakfast included - this was an extra cost, as well as parking also being charged extra as only valet parking was offered. We paid £35 for parking, & although being told we would have unlimited access to the car, this was parked out of sight. When my partner requested access to his car to retrieve something, her was told he would have to wait for someone to get it, and that he wouldnt be able to go with them to get it. They proceeded to ask where abouts to find the item, however my partner felt very uncomfortable with the idea of having to explain where said item was. Although an interesting hotel, we feel the stay really was not worth what we paid. We did express this on checkout, but staff didnt take much notice. "

"Poor breakfast selection and small portions Overbearing staff"

"Breakfast was ok"

"Good parking , room was a little small and cracked tiles in bathroom, sockets on bed side head board did not work, very dirty behind sofa with an okd guests tights behind the sofa. We had to call for a tv remote when we returned to the hotel in the evening. Breakfast buffet was served in a clean modern dinning room, buffet was adequate .bthe staff were polite and helpfull at all times, the hotel could maybe do with a bit of a refresh. Drains soumded like they needed cleaning out with lots of strange noises everytime the loo flushed. Only a queen double in our room which felt a bit small , matress very was comfortable and we had a good nights sleep, although we had the window open as the room was very warm during the night. Overall we would say this hotel is more of a good three star than a 4 star to be honest with a bit of a B&B feeling."
