Fantastic location
First time to the hotel but won't be the last. Early check in provided and facilities were very confi.
Spa was lovely just a sfabe there isn't an outdoor thermal pool .
Superb service
Over a two night stay, we received absolutely fabulous service both from the restaurant staff and reception.
Food was excellent value and your waiting staff were superb, friendly and really helpful.
Any questions and queries were handled perfectly so I would gladly return for another visit.
Once Upon A Time
Visit was on a mission to celebrate a birthday of a friend so we only had two nights to stay and 15 hours of travel each way. Needless to say we were pretty knackered and would have liked to have had more time to visit the surroundings. I'm sure it was a missed opportunity as there will not be a next time.
