L’expérience aurait pu être un 5/5 mais l’hôtel est envahit d’anglais saouls et bruyants. Nous aurions du faire attention aux précédents commentaires avant de réserver. La réception de l’hôtel a toute fois bien écoutée nos plaintes lors de la première nuit (bruits de 1h à 5h du matin) et a visiblement fait le nécessaire car ça ne s’est pas reproduit les nuits d’après. Mais si vous souhaitez calme et repos ou vacances en famille ; passez votre chemin ! L’atmosphère est loin d’être reposante. Les anglais crient et se comportent comme s’ils étaient chez eux..

Too many stags hens and parties, definitely not for a quiet relaxing holiday, traffic noise from road woke us up at 5.30 am, so was moved. staff were mostly really nice, not for people with walking difficulties, no wheelchair access available, has a lift straight into hotel for disabled, but when used it was told it’s not for guests to use, all they had to do was press a button in reception, so no would not go there again

Staff were all lovely and super helpful. Made us feel very welcome and at home. However on our second night our toilet broke and started flooding our bathroom. We rang reception about the problem and they said they would send someone to fix it the following day. That next evening the toilet broke again and when we called reception they then told us that no one had actually been sent to fix the toilet and that the cleaners just cleaned up the mess from the following day. For the majority of our trip we had to use the bathroom in reception which was 2 floors down. We also couldn’t even use the shower comfortably as there was toilet water all over the floor. The staff were lovely about the situation but I feel like we should have been allowed to move rooms because of this.
