3.5 star ratingThe main building looks very impressive from the outsideFirst room we were allocated was really damp- wallpaper peeling off walls- smells, bedding damp. We were upgraded to one of their 'best suites' but this was in need of redecoration, new furniture and window repairs.22 August 2010
4.5 star ratingThe most positive thing was the staff who were extremely nice and helpful, including when I had a problem with the facilities in my room (see below). The food served was also lovely and the room was very nice. On the first evening I used the hairdryer in my room and as soon as I turned it on it popped with a spark coming out and the lights in the room when out (presumably it blew the fuse to the rooms supply). There was no emergency lighting in the room, so I had to get dressed on the dark and call down to reception. They responded as best they could - there was no maintenance man available and so I had to change rooms. Which ment I had to pack in the dark. Whilst the staff at the time were very helpful, it was at the least inconvenient and potentially quite dangerous. I would have expected some form of compensation for this - and mentioned it on check out. Because my stay was pre-paid they said they could not discount my bill, but would ask the duty manager to look at the incident. I have recieved a letter from him which was a bit of a token gesture and a bit of a disapointing response from what was in all other respects a very nice hotel with impression front of house staff.24 October 2010
