Perfect location! Across from the castle, central to shopping and restaurants. Valet parking on site was very helpful I didn't get to stay long enough to use the spa!

The staff were polite and helpful on the desk. Pleasent comfortable lounge area. We had informed you a week or two before our stay that my husband was a ceoliac, but at no time were we offered any alternatives, we even had to provide a pavlova to enable him an alternative too ice cream. We were with a group (Great Rail Journeys) but stayed an extra night before in a different room which I booked over the internet cheaper than we had paid with our Tour, so was disappointed to be moved into an inferior room when our Tour Holiday started. Also we did not get as good a service at the breakfast time as other paying guests.

I liked the Spa, had a massage booked also and it was excellent, the pool was great. Check in was 3pm which I think is a little late, however we did not get into our room till 3.30pm and even then they had given us a key that didn't work, so didn't get into our room untill 3.45pm. I did let staff know my husband and I had a massage booked and really needed access sooner, but sadly no alternative was given. We were told when we arrived our room had been upgraded to a superior but if that was superior I would hate to see a normal room.

As i booked on booking.com got fantastic value. Spa was very good, room with large bed and view fantastic Valet parking details should have been said with booking as car tracking device meant security calls.

Swimming pool Dreadful noise at 6:45am as some machines started up. I understand this was the fans from the Health Club below my room. The floor even vibrated with the noise. Also very difficult to get to hotel by the one way system.

Great all round! It was a bit difficult to order biscuits & tea for the room after we'd used our original supply. Small point but one staff member got petty. :-(
