Very disappointing

Very disappointing stay this time. Hardly any drinks in the bar as they had sent the drinks to there event bar, so no drinks of our liking. Then for evening meal most items on the bar menu were not available. Then to top it off world war 3 was happening in the corridors in the early hours 😴

On arrival to my room the bed hadn’t been made and there were dirty cups still there. Went to the receptionist and she kindly moved me to another room. There was a lot of mould and damp in the corridors of the hotel. My new room had blood on the lampshade. Gym was a good size and had lots of machines. Restaurant was small, long wait for a table. Bar area also small, hardly any tables or chairs most people standing up. Bar food was nice, long wait though about 40 minutes.

One night stay in a suite in January

Our Suite was very comfortable and clean. Bathroom was a little small for a suite and one of the wall lights were not working. Room was very cold when we arrived. The central heating in the room was completely turned off. We manage to get both radiators on again and there were two electric fires in the suite for added warmth. Breakfast was good. Pool was nice with a hot spa tub. Surrounding grounds were nice for a walk. We did not eat evening meal on this occasion as we went to a nearby Indian Restaurant for dinner. Would stay again. General feel of the hotel is a little tired but clean and comfortable.
