Decent stay with some minor issues.
clean room quiet location polite staff overcrowded spa cold pool slow bar
my room, a double room, was clean and quiet. i appreciated the complementary toiletries. the hotel location allowed easy access to nearby attractions. the staff was generally polite.
the spa was overcrowded. i found difficulty in securing a lounge chair. the pool temperature was cooler than i prefer, a definite drawback. the service at the bar was slow one evening, and i waited longer than expected for a drink.

Underwhelming Stay. Issues Encountered
warm oysters poor food
The Road Hole Restaurant was disappointing. The food quality did not match the view. Oysters were served warm and lacked proper accompaniments. Staff seemed unaware of the correct preparation. My daughter and I ordered the cote de boeuf. Its grey color and overall poor quality were concerning, especially for a hotel of this standard.

attentive service great touch hotel area basic experience additional cost
The staff showed fantastic service. It ensured a cute experience in every hotel area. There were many great touches. These elevated a special day even more. The breakfast had plenty of choice with attentive service! The room facilities had high quality.
I was seated in the Conservatory for dinner. The overall experience seemed very basic. The food seemed nothing special. The wine seemed very over priced. The supplement of £40pp to use the Kohler Water Spa seemed a disgrace. I think that paying guests should not have to pay an addition cost to visit the Spa area.
