We have stayed at the Derwent a few years back so we knew what to expect when we booked the Carlton, the hotel is very clean and bed was comfortable but the rooms are dated but have what you need for your stay. Staff are friendly and helpful, breakfast was good.

Love TLH but....
Always love staying at TLH but could do with a spruce up. The shower pressure was really low but that only bothered me.

Staff is not good in communication. Very expensive hotel as it mentioned about spa, massage and so many things included with this hotel but unfortunately we are not happy because they are charging extra for any extra activities....not worth staying there

It was a good holiday in TLH Carlton . Facilities are good. Kids had fun. Due to hot climate, it was difficult to sleep without AC. AC would have been better in rooms.

We have stayed before, parking is good although charges have been introduced. Pools are lovely but would like age limit dropped for indoor swimming with adult supervision as lifeguards are present. Food is excellent good value for money. Evening Menu needs to be extended we had to eat out too accommodate both children. Outdoor tables for smaller numbers single or couples occupied tables suitable for families

Found a pair of underpants down the side of the bed and broken chocolate biscuits all over the floor after waiting till 3 to check in so the cleaners could do their job??? And breakfast wasn’t as good as it used to be. Apart from that we enjoyed it.
