I had a mixed experience at this hotel. While the staff was friendly and helpful, and I enjoyed the lovely bar area, the room left much to be desired with cleanliness issues and an overall dated feel. The dining was chaotic with service complaints, and breakfast could have been better.

I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The suite I stayed in was incredibly spacious and comfortable, but the decor was a bit dated. The service was friendly, but it took far too long to get food at the Christmas party. On the plus side, the breakfast offered was fantastic, though there was a long wait to be served. Overall, there's potential here, but improvements are definitely needed.

Overall, my stay was quite pleasant with spacious and clean rooms and a nice spa facility. However, the dining experience left something to be desired with inconsistencies in meal temperature, and it can get a bit noisy due to its proximity to the airport. The staff was mostly accommodating and helpful, making the experience enjoyable despite a few drawbacks.

The room was spacious and clean, though it felt a bit tired and could use some updates. The furnishings were a bit dated, and I noticed a layer of dust on my wallet after leaving it on the table overnight.

The hotel is located conveniently but is directly under the flight path from the airport, leading to some noise as early as 6 AM. It's close to local attractions which is a plus.

While my first meal was enjoyable, my second dinner was disappointing due to the temperature of the food. Breakfast had a fair selection but could be hotter for that extra touch.

The spa was a highlight of my stay, quite popular yet relaxing. The pool area was well-sized for a hotel, perfect for unwinding after a long day.

We initially booked a spa package to celebrate our anniversary, which we were excited about. The spa facilities were nice, and the lunch was fantastic. However, the experience was marred by the overcrowded pool area full of children, making it less relaxing than we had hoped. While the treatment was enjoyable, the noisy atmosphere made it hard to fully unwind. Overall, it was a mixed experience at a reasonable price, but probably better during quieter times.

Lunch was excellent and a highlight of our stay; however, breakfast lacked attention, with food arriving lukewarm and not up to standard for a hotel of this caliber.

While the spa area was clean and well-presented, it was highly overcrowded, which detracted from the otherwise nice facilities.

We recently spent a lovely weekend at the hotel and while there were some busy periods during our stay, the overall experience was still enjoyable. The signature room was comfortable and well-appointed, and we appreciated the cleanliness throughout the hotel. However, the dining experience during peak times could have been better organized, and I felt the breakfast was slightly overpriced for what was offered.

Rooms

Our signature room was spacious and clean with modern amenities, but the kettle placement under a sloping wall was a bit awkward to use.
