    Would’ve been nice to a have a fridge in the room.. the service at the restaurant was very slow as not many servers took over an hour after seating to get meals which wasn’t ideal with a toddler.

    Perfect location to Peppa Pig world. Also the attention to detail for kids like play area, gift on check in, nighttime treat, kids eating free

    There was only one issue i had, which was kinda major, but i found a work-arround: The lights in my room were inproperly wired, in that, if i used 1 of the bedlamps, it would cut off all lights. Furthermore, the other lights didn't just turn on them selves, but all other lights, really strange. But my workarround was this: The bed lights were done correct/isolated, so i just used them for when it was time for bed.

    The staff was amazingly friendly and always had a welcoming feeling. The rooms were fresh and had every amenity i needed for a superb experience, such as glasses ready in the toilet to wash my mouth, good bathtub etc. The room had a lot of poweroutlets, and so that was never an issue, along with a good free WiFi. Lastly, the breakfast was amazing a long the serving staff. Really top-stuff.

    Really didn’t have anything to dislike. There were a considerable number of children under 5 which may discourage some guests, but it did not detract from our stay.

    Staff were very good and the breakfast outstanding. The room was as expected but also very good. We enjoyed our stay. Loved the gym especially the high quality Concept2 rowers.

    Dirt/garbage under the bed, I asked housekeeping to clean it and they did not. You had to pre-book the timing for breakfast which was a bit annoying because you could not just wake up and go.

    Room was average as expected, breakfast was good, pool was good and all other facilities were good

    The breakfast was the only thing that let our stay down. The space available needs better organisation during busy periods - it was a bit like a rugby scrum at times!

    Cost of a cooked breakfast and paying for parking. Noise levels in restaurant and *quiet room* Bedroom doors are also very noisy when closing( The hotel has an arrangement with Peppa pig land, so a large number of very young children are staying)

    Sunday morning breakfast was chaotic. Even though we had booked a table for a specific time, there was no highchair available. The staff looked lost with so many people. Certain items have to be ordered and they forgot to bring one of mine for example. I understand why they have a booking system for the restaurant but it's very hard to predict when the kids will be hungry. Also, leaving to book at the check in will surely mean disappointment for some. I tried to move a dinner slot and there was nothing available but the restaurant was not full. A sign needs to be put on above the heating panel to show where the button to turn it on is. It would avoid a lot of frustration. I wish we knew beforehand about having to book a timeslot for the pool. We got a space in the end but if we hadn't I would have to handle a very disappointed toddler.

    The hotel structure is great for families. It feels like they designed the hotel with kids in mind. The playroom is full of toys and a video game, 2 screens with cartoons, the cutlery at the restaurant made of plastic, the colours, everything. Staff as courteous and I fell they handled our allergy with care at the restaurant. The food was really good, big portions. Breakfast had lots of options too. Rooms were clean and tidy. And I also didn't need to go around making it safe for my toddler. The bed is really comfy and lots of pillows and more than enough towels. I had a couple of requests which were done without a problem. Good size of car park.

    Carpet was damp, bathroom was old-fashioned and had step-in bath, not ideal for older or disabled guests. Some biscuits with the tea and coffee set up would have been nice.

    Room was small but cozy and well furnished. Comfortable bed, nice toiletries and good pillows. Tea and coffee available, but not enough milk. Breakfast was fine, but no different from the cheaper Holiday Inn Express hotels, would have expected something a bit nicer.
