Beautiful location. Clean. Decor a bit tired. Comfortable bed. Very big hotel - long walk to rooms. Restaurant can't cope with number of guests and no other options nearby. Breakfast good if go early, but selection hugely reduced after 1 hour and food left to go cold and dry. Only 2 disabled bays and still far from entrance.

Woken up by rude noisy cleaners and when I questioned them about why they were making so much noise the guy asked what my problem was and what did I want him to do about it! When I came out of the room to check out the lady cleaner who was working with the guy did apologize. I informed the receptionist who was really shocked and said she would get someone to ring me today but I've had no one call. Absolutely awful behavior and terrible customer service as no follow up call. Extremely disappointed as I would never expect to hear that level of noise before ,9am doors slamming, crashing and bashing with equipment and talking so loudly and then to be spoken to in that manner when they were questioned. To add insult to injury to have no follow up call although the receptionist said she would get a manager to call me. Awful to say the least

Staff were great but the hotel feels very dated and noise is a problem. We were woken up several times by the doors to other rooms slamming soft-closers would be good! I could even hear the people in the neighbouring rooms close their wardrobe doors. No decaffeinated tea at the hotel. The Spa treatments were great.

Plenty of room for parking - however the code to leave made no sense. (Especially for taxi drivers). The staff were friendly. Breakfast - no grilled tomatoes (normally a staple) The swimming area was ok - the scum on the top of the hot tub looked yuck. It was a place of convenience- close enough to the NEC.

Everything about the hotel was really lovely, clean and comfortable. Our supper was quite nice, except there was a little too much salt on a lot of things, especially the lettuce in a 'house salad'! But breakfast was absolutely mega, and made up for it. We would love to stay again!

It was just what you’d expect from a hotel & country club of this type. Perfectly comfortable if a bit dated. Some usb sockets in the rooms and public workspace areas wouldn’t go amiss.
