THIS IS NOT A 4* HOTEL This is one of the worst hotels I have ever stayed in - it is dirty, rundown, and not good value for money. Noise We were allocated room 101 and told as we were handed the key that there was a wedding on and we may hear some noise as our room was opposite the wedding. This was an understatement and the hotel made it clear they would not deal with noise complaints. Our room was directly opposite the wedding function room, separated by a corridor no more than 1.5 metres wide. When the evening reception started we may as well have been part of the party. It was bad enough when the door to the function room was closed but when opened by guests it was like we were in a nightclub. My husband had to go and close the door numerous times. This went on until 1am. After that, until 3am we had the noise of the staff cleaning up the room, moving furniture etc as well as being able to hear word for word the conversation and activities of the room next door. We booked this hotel for a relaxing night away while I was recovering from illness - yet it was far from that. When the function room is being used the hotel should not be booking out this room to guests - a warning about noise after booking is not acceptable. The room Smelly, rundown and no soundproofing. No complimentary water etc. only one towel for two of us. Door to bathroom rotten because of water. The spa Nothing special. Slimy & slippy pool, unclean. Food We were DBB, food was ok.

Couples overnight stay with spa

Food was lovely. Staff were really nice but spa wasn’t explained properly and some confusion when booking in. Parts of the hotel and spa need up dating as a bit shabby. But we really enjoyed the choice of treatments and thermal rooms. Overall a really lovely overnight stay and reasonably priced. We hope to return soon.
