Disappointed with the suite standard of decor

We stayed in a suite and the room was a good size and could have been perfect, however it has an overally complicated light system controlled by Alexa, the decor is not to a high standard with wall paper pealing, paint work and finish really rough. The room could benefit from a good clean - the shower is caked in scale and the floor corers were really dirty. Disappointing given it is meant to be newly decorated. The saving grace is the pool which is fantastic and the food was very good. If only they paid more attention to cleanliness of the rooms and had better decorators! The cleanliness of the communal areas seemed better.

Some issues

The hotel is starting to look a bit tired and dated. The Spa was excellent and a great plus for guests. The restaurant was good, but poss the menu could offer more dishes. My room which was 209 had the sun beaming in early morning, these rooms that have a window facing East need a black out blind or curtains as venitian blinds do not stop all the light. (we have holiday rentals and all bedrooms have a black out blind fitted. I stood on a slither of glass in my room for a broken glass by previous guests but luckly it did not cut me just pierced the skin.

Attention to detail.

The position of the resort on the canal was lovely with nice walks accessible directly. The hotel pool area was spacious with room to swim and relax, although many of the lockers could not be secured. There was plenty of parking and pleasant outside seating areas. My room was of an adequate size but maybe needed some TLC and decorating. The bed was really comfortable and the room had a bath, this was a nice facilty but a lack of hot water was an issue. I tried to order room service, my first choice was unavailable, as was my second selection. My third phone call went unanswered so I gave up at that point. The staff I encountered were pleasant and helpful. I would stay again but the resort needs some maintenence considering the prices and the lack of hot water a disappointment.

Comfy stay

I've stayed here before and after a second trip I feel I can make a fair assessment. The room was fairly newly decorated, neutral, comfy and clean. Walls very thin though TV was great, you can screen mirror from your phone or tablet which made our movie night. Bathroom was dated and shower desperately needs updating along with improved water pressure. Ladies we need a movable shower head don't we? Fan didn't work with no bathroom window which isn't ideal (room 302). The showers in the club room were far better pressure wise so we used those, sadly the water went off for an hour during our stay, no idea if it was coincidence or something that happens regularly. Room service food was of a good standard, was a little cold by the time it reached us, but they can't work miracles. It was super tasty. Pool was very clean and so were the ladies changing areas. They are in the process of updating lockers, good timing as they are all fairly useless and don't lock. The pool offers family times which is great, however there's no 'shallow end' and actually nowhere for kids to use apart from the lane swimming with everyone else. We ended up playing by the steps. If your child is too old to be held in the water but not old enough to swim I wouldn't come here. My son (8) swims well so we were ok. Breakfast wasn't included in our deal so we didn't use the Waterside, it was lovely last time I stayed. Staff were all friendly, polite and professional. Would I come back? Yes, on a deal.

Need to resolve the water issue.

I booked this hotel for a belated valentine's treat for my partner and I only booked this place because of the spa facilities. I booked treatments in. We got to the spa (leisure centre) the water wasn't working the lockers didn't work. I got a shower back in the room the hot water went off in our room no hot water the day after either. I spoke with a number of people who said it's a common occurrence with the water as there is no main feed which is not good if your advertising it as a spa

First room - no main light, shower trickled, no heating, road noise so couldn’t sleep as well as waking up cold as sheets thin and no blankets. Moved to another room which was better however alot smaller, shower tiles disgustingly dirty, marks on walls and curtains, doors water damaged. Just not the quality I was expecting and was very disappointed. Would not return.
