It was our first time staying at the Voco St Davids and we had such high hopes.
The staff at check-in were a little robotic and preoccupied but polite nonetheless. Upon entry, the entry is beautifully and tastefully decorated with modern dark undertones; however, that is lost as you enter the upper floors and rooms. Our room was comfortable, but it wasn't very uninviting (nothing like the hotel's entry). The furniture was very dated and tired, with chips and scuff marks all over the side table, and the sideboard was a little dirty.
There were very few options for drinks in the room and the coffee machine just wouldn't work.
The door and frame which opened onto the balcony were a little dirty.
The bathroom was the real letdown in this hotel, it is so old and dated it's almost embarrassing. The small light mirror is dated 1997 (original sticker), made of plastic and so discoloured it needs replacing. The shower head wasn't very clean but nothing extreme.
A telephone in the bathroom (right next to the toilet) was very confusing and I could not see the purpose for this.
We ordered Breakfast for our room and I have to say it wasn't amazing! It arrived on time by a lovely member of staff however, the trolley on which breakfast arrived was a very old trolley. The white tablecloth arrived stained with orange juice and what looked like coffee or brown sauce!?
We won't stay here again as it wasn't to our liking, it's not the worst hotel but by our standards, it's not 5* worthy.
