Sorry have to address my true view thoughts
Was very disappointed with the Xmas dinner as I had beef which was like leather…1 chipolata on friends dinner,he said turkey was just ok ..for £50 was not worth it..Buffet Xmas night was soso pathetic and heard plenty agreed with us£15 was a disgrace…Its such a lovely friendly staff and lovely hotel but don’t think we’ll be back My 76yr friend has diabetis along with other med probs and we purposely came as wanted to bring my 2dogs and a disabled room which was perfect but the cost and bad experience of food and lacks in hygiene in the restaurant with no table covers and some staff not in uniform …

Not good
It was a building site on our floor got woken up to workers and construction noise. There was mold in the room it didn't seem clean. We were meant to stay for 4 nights but left early. Our bed was meant to be changed 2 nights in but it wasn't. The staff are lovely and helpful I don't blame them. Hotel is just a bit run down. Random seagal also got into the building at one point.

4th time here and this was the worst and won't be back.
Our hotel room hallway had a few stairs and I had a walker aid. Also the room was a tad small as was my brother in laws too. A bit much as well is you pay them for parking your car after paying over £1300.00 to stay there, most annoying, especially going there 4 years on the trot.🤔☹️

Currently being refurbished on the 3rd floor but clean. My only dissappointment was there is no WiFi.
Breakfast was good with a variety of cerials and cooked food.
Parking is available as advertised on your site but you are charged a £5 per day.
