6/10 Good

Lovely feel/ atmosphere to hotel - nice but not pretentious. Room was ok, bathrooms could have been a bit cleaner as dust and hairs still on floor. Fridge / cooler didn’t work but was fixed when raised and plug socket nowhere near mirror so couldn’t use mirror to dry hair with hairdryer!!! It’s the little details I guess!!! Thermal Spa was nice…basically indoor and outdoor steam, sauna and hydro jacuzzi. For those staying and purchased access via package the access to spa is limited up to 2hrs each day and only available to uses up to 4pm & subject to a looking available so I’d suggest booking the slot b4 u arrive to avoid disappointment on the 1st day! They do packages with afternoon tea and access which unfortunately made it very busy on the Friday and sadly with some overly loud local guests!! Food menus are the same in both the bar / pub and the brassiere. But I’d recommend booking esp over Friday/ Saturday as it got busy! The food was ok but probably not up to the standard I’d expected. It was basically good pub food at a premium price. Went for lemon sole goujons on 1st night which were so overdone they could have been birds eye fish fingers which was a shame. The ceaser salad the following night was better. Breakfast was nice enough although the sourdough toast was absolutely rock hard but that’s just a minor point. Staff were friendly and attentive but not overly so. all in all a nice couple of nights in a nice location and a nice feel to the place but not exceptional

Great place, friendly staff, easy parking and good facilities. Rooms were way to warm and uncomfortable to sleep in - AC not operational & the fans provided did little to alleviate the stuffiness.

Lovely hotel but unsafe heat wise

The room was so hot it was unsafe. The air conditioning units have been decomissioned but there is no fans or alternative options to be cool- anf the reception staff really didnt care. The rest of the hotel was lovely and food was great for breakfast.

6/10 Good

Staff are fantastic- extremely helpful and friendly. Breakfast a little chaotic. If you’re not early you can be waiting 45mins for food and they ran out of eggs during our stay. Also almost all of our group of 16 had to have tepid or cold showers which was also disappointing. That said we enjoyed our stay and we’d go back.

Thumbs up.

The hotel was lovely and the room we stayed in had a very comfy bed, tea and coffee facilities and a river view. The food was very nice although a little on the pricey side. I was a bit disappointed that the picture of the pool on the website which went outside was only accessible via the spa though. Breakfast was a little chaotic and took us sometime to get our breakfast ordered. Overall this was a great one night stay.
