Beautiful hotel but better communication needed.

I tried 3 different emails & on hold for 15 minutes to try to book parking before arriving and did not get a response. I phoned again on the morning we were due to arrive & was finally able to book parking. It is valet parking as the hotel is in the city centre, £48 a night but we thought the best option. The hotel itself was beautiful. Our room was well equipped with tea, coffee machine, air-con & fridge. I requested a room with bath which was honoured. The bed was a good size although it felt a little like a water bed if the other person moved! Pillows were big & comfortable. Lovely decor. We had drinks in the Morse Bar & were served by a lovely gentleman in a suit whose name we didn’t get but he was great. There is limited seating in the bar but there is another bar in the restaurant with bar stools at the bar. I had a massage in the spa which was much appreciated and well done. We were greeted warmly by all staff that we encountered. Apart from the email/parking issue we would recommend.

Lovely Victorian style hotel with a comfortable room. Everything very clean and tidy. Reception service was efficient and friendly. Service in the bar was disappointing since we only had two drinks and the bar staff managed to do something wrong on both. The cooked breakfast would have been much better had the food been hot or even warm. The selection of foods on offer was very good.

For the price I paid this was not good value for money. Expensive, small room. I needed photo ID to check in, apparently policy, although nobody could show me the policy. Luckily I had my drivers licence with me. Unpleasant desk staff and really I would not go back

Although on arrival we were told we had been upgraded, the room was so hot we couldn't stay in it. The staff had brought in portable AC units as the room hadn't been used for 3 days (it had been 30+ degrees) - after 5 hours the AC units had made no difference at all. They did move us to another room later that evening without quibbling but with little acknowledgement of the fact that it would have been unbearable to stay there in the first place. There was no water provided in the rooms on a very warm evening. I managed to procure a bottle from the bar staff during a late-night fire alarm! In the bar the next day I ordered a cold meats platter with bread as we were on a schedule - it took over 25 minutes to arrive with the result that we had to bolt it in 10 minutes before our appointment. Other than that staff were polite if clearly under pressure. At over £450 a night the hotel is expensive for what it offers - rooms were sparsely kitted out: e.g. no vanity kit, no bottled water, no fridge/minibar. None of the little touches that make it feel like a "luxury" stay. I would return if rooms were more affordable (and if my room was air conditioned!).

Nice Hotel, must work harder on the experience.

There was a problem with the hot water, so we had luke-warm showers for the week. The hotel is very nice, perfect location. The staff were individually nice, but they seemed under-trained for that type of hotel.
