Not as luxurious as I was expecting

I upgraded my room and it was nice and spacious. There were a few small things that weren't quite right with it, though. The shower gel was empty, some of the sachets in the tea/coffee box hadn't been replenished, etc. Reception staff were lovely, the floor staff in the bar seemed over-worked and (understandably) stressed.

Beautiful stay but more prep needed for NYE

Beautiful hotel, we were there for NYE, food was excellent however, the bar was understaffed and there were no chairs for people to sit after dinner, no staff seem to have the common sense to get chairs for people v odd was there was lots of space for them, a v expensive night away to have no seat seems unbelievable really. There were only a few family tables and a few stools at the bar, they really need to prepare based on number of bookings. The bar manager was v nice & he was severely under pressure with guests complaining, very unfair on the staff.

The hotel was beautiful! The staff, especially Brian at the front door and Sinead at the front desk were incredibly friendly and welcoming! Massage, biking, and restaurants were good. Only issues were with the pool and jacuzzi area. Found used bandaids on the side of the pool. Around the jacuzzi it was slightly flooded with standing water that flowed into the sauna. Needed to be drained and cleaned better. Otherwise wonderful hotel.

A real 5 Star 🌟 Hotel

Very efficient and friendly greeting by Teresa on reception at Chrck-In along with her colleague Gregory. Warmest check in I have had in a long time. Food / service was superb. Ate dinner in Coach House & service by Nathan was first class. Breakfast was also excellent with lots of fresh food & good coffee on menu. Overall a superb hotel with friendly professional & qualitystaff.

Probably wasn't there long enough to fully rate. Service at dinner wasn't what I would expect in a 5 star. Likewise again at breakfast I was amazed there was only a buffet. Again at this star level freshly cooked options are expected. The buffet was very good but with no options to order fresh food the overall score for breakfast would be as low as 3/10.
