Hotel is a bit tired, room wasn’t great. Booked a king but was put in a room with 2 singles together which wasn’t great. Tv didn’t work and toilet wasn’t the most reliable. Put in a room 107 where the view was shocking bad facing a roof and wall. Spa is good and staff were really friendly. Probably wouldn’t stay again and would look elsewhere

Just ok

Happy enough for what we needed. Rooms a bit tired and musty, wobbly chairs, broken TV remote, sink not draining well but appeared clean enough. Front desk staff lovely. Breakfast was a little interesting, the poor staff seemed really overwhelmed. Not much selection and lots of things appeared to have ran out. As I said, fine for our needs and we are quite chill but definitely no wow factor. Pool - freezing cold showers and freezing cold changing room!! really was so super cold!!

One to avoid

Arrived to make memories with my mum, sister and our children to be told although we had booked dinner bed and breakfast we would have to pay for the childrens meals. No where on the booking form did it state this. This caused us to be stressed and completely ruined the overnight. The dining room had a long wait for food and you had to queue to leave and check you didnt have anything to pay. Booked breakfast for 9.30 yet still had to queue to get in. Think management need to review how they are running the hotel.

Never again!!

Never again!! After enjoying a stay at this property last year me and my sister booked a mothers day surprise for our elderly mum, ourselves and our children. We booked two rooms on a half board basis and this was confirmed 2 adults 2 children half board on our receipts. Upon arrival to the property i was checked in by a friendly receptionist and everything seemed ok. I booked dinner times and breakfast. My sister however was met with a different attitude informing her half board was not included for the children. I went round to try to clear up the confusion and was abruptly told I would also have to pay for my children to have dinner even though we had both paid for half board. The receptionist attitude was shocking trying to blame it on hotels.com and informing us we would not get our money refunded as we had already paid. Due to the terrible attitude which was causing us stress and upset at this point we just wanted to leave. The manager came apologised and gave the impression she would sort it out so we had a drink and decided to stay. It did not get sorted we received a note saying we would still need to pay but they would 'discount' the meals. The service at dinner was extremely slow and some customers actually walked out in frustration. What should have been a nice relaxing stay was ruined by the terrible attitude and incompetence of this hotel. No where on our terms and conditions did it say that 2 adults 2 children half board did not include the childrens meals!

it was an overall disappointing experience. I had booked two rooms, and both had issues. One room had heating problems, making the room uncomfortable, and the other had a broken toilet flush, which made it difficult to use. The rooms were old, with outdated furniture and fixtures, which certainly didn’t justify the high price they charge. What made matters worse was the lack of friendly service. When I called reception to address the issues, no one picked up the phone, which only added to the frustration. To top it all off, all the hotel staff were unfriendly to us. The hotel felt overly hyped and simply didn’t live up to expectations. Overall, it was a regrettable stay,
