The hotel was lovely, the staff in the restaurant were lovely. New restaurant opened with obvious teething Problems but it’s beautiful and the Food was lovely. Unfortunately the room was far too hot, unbearable. Asked for the radiator in the bathroom to be turned off the receptionist said someone will go to the room to sort it out but it wasn’t, asked for some info about the hotel such as spa details times for meals, the normal stuff you get in a room, the receptionist just kept saying I don’t know, I’m not sure etc and I’ll find out but never got back to us. Both things were disappointing that no one got back to us.
