Loved the access to the river and the small boat facility. Lovely grounds. Some good restaurants nearby. Was a little bit cold with the air con on and every window and door open in the evening. Cab availability was expensive due to the fact they had to come a fair distance from their base. All in all though, a positive experience. We shall certainly return.

Not a proper hotel, more like a series of rooms between a bar and a restaurant where the room corridor was used a a thoroughfare between. The rooms have no soundproofing so good luck trying to get any sleep when people are just standing around drinking (and drunk) in the corridor outside up to midnight. Clearly the restaurant is the reason any of this is here so I can see it would have some use for group functions, but this place not at all suitable for families or business travellers.

The hotel was fabulous, very clean and modern in design with beautiful fixtures and fittings. The bedroom was very large with a king size bed but did not overlook the river as was specified on the website, but was to the side of the river overlooking a seated garden with river in the distance. On entering the bedroom the throw on the bed was found to be covered in stains which we were extremely disappointed with and this was removed by a member of staff immediately. The bathroom was fabulous. Overall our stay at the hotel was very pleasant and breakfast was very good and service excellent. The area the hotel is located is very pretty with restaurants close-by should you wish to eat out. An excellent location to stay for a few days.

A bit disappointing

A bit disappointing. Lovely hotel and position on the river but a couple of things in the room didn't work and we didn't think that the food was as good as previously.

One of my favourite hotels ever

I love this hotel, this is my third stay, first time with the family. The hotel overall is gorgeous in beautiful surroundings. The restaurant was lovely as was the food and the cocktails and the service was impeccable. The room was a family room and was huge! No falling over each other loads of space, plus an added touch the fan was already running when we got there as it was a warm day, thank you. Tiny issue with team doors banging in the morning (not unreasonable time but nonetheless) but this will not stop booking another visit at all.

Terrible night's sleep.

Terrible night's sleep. We stayed in a room a few feet away from a very loud wedding disco. When I complained thry said a mistake had been made and thry should have either booked a room further away or told me about the wedding. Although I had very little sleep I was given a full refund. The dinner and breakfast was fine, sltaff were very good and a beautiful location. If only thry were more organised in their room allocations I would have given a 4 star review.

Great Could be Better

Great location, lovely hotel. Parking is good, there is a large free car park. The restaurant is good serving great meals. Only bugbear is that the service at breakfast is ok if you've got all day but not great if you want to get a move on. Why aren't you like other hotels where I can help myself to juice and cereal and that will shave 10 - 15 minutes off the time?
