Juice not chilled . No croissants morning 2 Hot buffet - sausages burnt . Very poor offering . Tables not cleared at any point . Had to ask for cups on the table to get coffee . 3-5 staff on most mornings with no guidance . Not a great experience for £135 per night . Will not use in the near future

Great hotel

A one night stay for a meeting nearby and would happily stay here again. Nice friendly staff, clean, decent food. If I was being picky the pool a touch on the small side once a few people are swimming, and eating in the bar area it felt a little empty of atmosphere. Overall great and look forward to a return

A decent hotel but nothing special. My standard room had a musty drainage type smell, windows could not be opened. Bathroom was the best quality of the room. Breakfast at £15.95 for one over priced in my opinion. Spa and Pool area was reasonably nice, towels provided.

Comfortable and classic stay

The experience at Muthu was great. Staff were very courteous as well as accommodating. The swimming pool, jacuzzi and sauna were great too. I liked the vibe of the place and the entrance is really grand. Gives a classy look without the expensive price tag.
