I was travelling on business with my business partner, we had a room each.
This hotel is set in amazing grounds, with a lot of it looking out onto the golf course. There’s plenty of parking. The biggest issue with the hotel is that it is desperately in need of refurbishment - it looks like it was done in the 90’s and nothing since. It goes from small things like not enough sockets in the rooms to very low quality shower fittings. If you remove the picturesque location from this hotel then there’s very little going for it.
We arrived at 14:50, with check-in at 15:00. We were told the rooms were not quite ready and so to sit in the bar for 10 mins; ok, fine, we were technically early. Once it hit 15:25, I think the barman could see me getting twitchy and so came and offered a free drink while we waited. Good idea, but maybe the reception should’ve done that when we arrived. Oh, the reason for the delay? The hotel was busy the day before. Wow.
Breakfast was £9.99 per day if paid in advance, or £14.99 on the day, so we paid for our 2 days in advance. The cooked breakfast was decidedly average, with my business partner choosing cereal due to seemingly no vegetarian option. £9.99 for some Coco-Pops and a glass of orange juice. I had the cooked breakfast: sausages were bland, as were the beans.
On checking out, I was told I needed to pay £14.99 for breakfast for day 2. I explained that we both paid in advance, but then made to wait while the receptionist checked.
