I had a mostly positive experience at this hotel. The location was great, situated close to several restaurants and shops, making it easy to explore. The rooms were spacious and modern, though some could use a bit more attention. Service was friendly, but I encountered a few hiccups during my stay that could use improvement. Overall, it’s a solid choice for value for money, especially with a great breakfast spread.

I recently stayed at this hotel and had a mixed experience. The rooms were a bit dated, and I found the bed uncomfortable, but the staff was friendly and accommodating. The hotel has a great heated swimming pool, and the location was decent. However, I was disappointed with the breakfast, as it was poor and lacked variety, and I didn’t realize I had to choose it at check-in. Overall, while there are pros like the friendly service and nice facilities, the negatives kept it from being ideal.

The rooms felt a bit dated, and the bed wasn't very comfortable for my taste. There was also no safety deposit box, which was a bit concerning. Interestingly, I had to choose my breakfast at check-in, specifying a time, which was a bit of a hassle.

The location was pretty decent; I enjoyed the heated swimming pool, and parking was good. However, since it's a former estate house, the windows didn't close completely, which made them less noise-isolating.

Unfortunately, the breakfast was quite poor, and I didn't eat most of it. I didn't realize that eggs and bacon didn't come with toast, so that was a disappointment. Having to specify my meal at check-in felt a bit off as well.
