dog friendly provided bed spacious room drinks menu loud dog relaxing environment
The location proved convenient. I appreciated that the hotel is dog friendly. They provided a bed with a bowl plus treats. Our Beautiful Double Room was spacious. The room also had a small refrigerator.
I had difficulty finding the drinks menu with the spritz advertised. I could not quite hear the bar man. A dog was barking repeatedly and loudly behind me. I was forced to move as I was unable to sit in a relaxing environment.

charming stay

lovely room food quality careful preparation
i found my room lovely. it was clean, well-presented, . the food stood out as a highlight of my stay. everything tasted delicious (i especially loved the desserts!) and was clearly prepared with care.
i asked for extra towels one evening, but they didn't arrive until the next morning. it was a minor inconvenience, but a quicker response would have been appreciated. it slightly impacted the comfort i expected .

The breakfast was great. the bar staff were friendly. i had a lovely spacious room. It was grand and airy.
the room i stayed in was a bit tired. the shower didn't drain very well either. the car park was hard to find because the postcode is different from the hotel's.

Acceptable stay, several issues

faulty air conditioning short kettle cord
The staff were helpful throughout my stay.
My room was too close to the lift. I could hear it operating at all hours. The air conditioning did not work and the room became too warm to sleep comfortably. the kettle's cord was too short to reach a plug without unplugging the fridge, resulting in spoiled food.
