Too loud

Third stay here and probably will be last sadly . Arrived at 4pm to check in with my son who has autism and my aunt and was met with several groups of rowdy men away for a golf weekend . Got checked in quickly by the staff though and directed where to go for our family room. We went up to our room it was lovely . Started to relax in room around 5pm / 5.30 someone was checked in to the room next to us which was connected to our room with a locked door . We had the tv on and still could hear every single word of there conversation as they were shouting . Then we heard a man screaming room 444 for 5 minutes straight until he arrived at it which was directed across from our room . At this point we are now surrounded by shouting adults we decide to leave for dinner as it was upsetting my son . On way out went to reception to report this to be told it’s families next to us I said there is no way they are families . He said let me again oh no sorry room next to u is two adults and room across is group of adults I can ask them to be more quiet . When we came back that evening they were slightly more quiet but could still hear them . It was not peaceful and relaxing like it usually is until the Saturday .

Another good stay, some improvements needed

My second day at the Forest of Arden Hotel was another good one. It wasn’t 100% great as there are a few things that unfortunately let it down. Overall, the staff are wonderful! Every single member of staff that I dealt with was excellent and could not fault them one bit. My main issue is with elements of the service. I booked a half board rate and the fact that this excluded me from being able to have room service was quite weird, I also find it odd that you have a completely separate menu for people with a half board rate. I don’t know why that’s even a thing! I was happy to pay the difference but I was told that this wouldn’t be acceptable. They don’t make this clear when you book either so be aware that the food options are incredibly limiting if you book the half board rate. The rooms also need a little bit of TLC. I had booked a premium room, which was incredibly spacious but battered up and rundown in some areas. It’s well overdue for a refresh but it was very clean nonetheless. The pool was also incredibly cold, and I found that the showers in the ladies changing rooms were quite dirty and smelly.
