What People are saying

Ok

Dave P on 16/06/2017 22:36

Well where to start...we got in the restaurant 630 which was fine. Still there 930 getting very drunk as food took a lifetime!! Shame really as hotel spot on is it the chef!!! Can't even get bar prices right, think its back up north for us!!!!!!

Tired menu, tired food

ITConsultant on 15/06/2017 22:34

Rooms are ok. I had an upgrade which was not worth the money. I have stayed several times.

The porridge at breakfast is probably the worst I have ever had anywhere in the UK. The selection of food at breakfast is however very good. Getting a pot of coffee at breakfast is hit and miss.

The menu in the evening is limited and never seems to change. After several visits you will wish you ate elsewhere.

I waited 25m for someone to take my evening meal order (staffing?) and gave up. I then ordered room service instead. It was prompt but the pizza was not very good (also a limited room service menu).

Not sure if I will return given the mixed experiences.

The surrounding hotel setting is nice . It's also off the beaten track with nothing nearby where you can eat.

Staffing Issue

Deborah2370 on 13/06/2017 07:03

Ok hotel, typical conference/wedding venue.
Not enough staff on at breakfast, so food not replenished and had to seek staff to get anything we wanted.
Travelzoo offer and as ever, felt like we were there to make up the numbers. Pity they hadn't put the staff on to cope with it.
Room ok. Very basic.

Mixed feelings

We visited here after having a great stay at the Tortworth hotel. It's very different but good.

Rooms are lovely and we had a wonderful first stay. They also allow dogs which is great for us. We had such a good stay we decided to go back but the second stay was a completely different story.

This time we decided to use the pool. Its very small and gets very busy because it's open to the public as well and the sauna was out of order when we visited so I probably wouldn't use these facilities again.
We went for dinner at the restaurant which was terrible. The food was over priced and tasteless and they were understaffed. The manager of the restaurant was temporary and he was stressed up to the eyeballs. I would not go back to this restaurant until they've sorted it out.
That night the fire alarm went off twice in the middle of the night meaning everyone had to parade out the hotel in their Pyjamas due to a fault in the system.
We were then kept awake most the night by large groups staying with weddings.

The second stay was such a stark contrast to the first that if I had experienced it first I definitely wouldn't be going back. We didn't use the restaurant or the pool the first time either so I didn't get to see these.

The hotel is largely for business people coming for conferences and for weddings at the weekends.

All round excellent

Stayed there for a business conference. First class accommodation and service. Highly recommended for business but also for family days away.
Will be taking my family later this month for a weekend break.
