Suite NOT a suite

Anon, stayed: January 2025

Our 'suite' (room 301) was not a proper suite. It had no separate sitting area, so nowhere for us to enjoy the prosecco included in the offer. Also, the room overlooked the car park. Breakfast was chaitic with limited choice, items not replenished leading to long queues. Overall we were disappointed that the suite did not live up the website description or our expectations.

Elizabeth, Cheshire, stayed: March 2025

Rooms were quite shabby,given the price. The restaurant looked lovely but there was a poor choice of food. We went to the Running Horse pub the next night and it ran rings round the hotel restaurant.
Breakfast on both mornings was cooked well,but lukewarm,so not as good as it should have been.

Rare weekend away

GS, Kent, stayed: October 2025

So on arrival we checked in , no complimentary room upgrade as per our package ( it wasn't guaranteed), there was a wedding on so it was busy, heard some noise outside reception which was one of the guests from the wedding we assumed being arrested by the police!, we had booked restaurant, on arrival we was taken to our table, asked if it was ok, we said no, could we sit away from the doors as very noisy , was told no as the other tables we could see empty were allocated for other guests
, we asked if other guests knew where they were sitting the lady so no ,( no one else sat there all night), then went to bed, my wife was kept awake by a party in the room next door, eventually she had enough a rang reception and the noise did die down, it shouldn't have took us to ring, staff must have known,next day the lady on reception who was very nice changed us to a different room on a upper level,so on what was supposed to be a relaxing weekend away ended up being exhausting and stressful, on the plus side breakfast was good, staff there was nice and friendly
Leisure facilities are good, staff there also very nice.
With rooms we had were ok, although the 2nd rooms shower was very tight to get into!
I know venues when weddings etc are on get busy but hotels should be staffed to cope otherwise they shouldn't do it, the restaurant was very understaffed on the Friday night.
The hotel is in a lovely setting and should be a lovely get away but we had a not so good experience.
