It has anything you need for a spa hotel but I think you need to stop the building works till after check out time because I got woken up by a lot of banging! Other than that i had a fantastic stay. 👌🏽

I stayed here on 20th February in an Upper Deck room. When I arrived in the room it was really big, and the bed looked so comfy with its fluffy pillows, and duvet. The bathroom was a good size and quite modern too. We didn't make use of the leisure facilities, which we should have done, and we didn't have breakfast here either. The room has built in SKY which was definitely a first for me in a hotel room.
The bad things I have to say about the room/ hotel was that around the plug in the bath there was black gunk underneath, which had obviously been missed on more than a reasonable amount of occasions. The rest of the bathroom, I have no faults with whatsoever.
In the room, we had a Dyson fan. We wondered why this was needed in February, however at around 1am this became apparent, as the room turned into a furnace! Having to get up to turn it on and kick the covers off as well was not ideal. There were a few scuffs on the couch that could've been rubbed off and obvious alcohol spillage marks on the walls in the room, that prevent it from feeling as fresh as it could.
It is also apparent that other drunken guests feel that singing and talking very loudly on the corridors between 12am and 3am is acceptable. This, as well as a bunch of men outside in the carpark at 1am shouting and being rowdy, is not what I would consider something to contribute to a good nights sleep. I suppose being on the main corridor where every aisle joins wouldn't help. Also, the housekeepers office/ store room was across from our room which was continuously banged through the morning from around 6am.
The hotel itself offers so much, and just these few things stop me from giving a rating of 4 which is a real shame. I would stay here again, however I would prefer to avoid room 101, and not come on a Saturday night as it seems that from other reviews, there are a lot of people that come to get hammered and then have no consideration for other guests.

Unfortunately the coffee facilities in-room were empty. Bins in both rooms wernt emptied and carpet wasnt vacuumed. Window frame had gaps so draught was gently blowing the blind open. Radiator didnt work. Restaurant & service were superb though!

Restaurant staff and food was excellent along with the explanation about the wines on offer, Improvements needed in the main Hotel it was looking dated, Upgraded rooms were very nice but needed a hoover underneath the bed.

Just back from room 152, a twin and having never stayed in this hotel again it will take awhile for me to return again.
I didn't eat or use any of the facilities in the hotel and cannot comment on these but the room was dirty. When walking around you noticed all white bits on the floor and there was very many of these hence the comment about being dirty.
The toilet seat in the bathroom didn't have the spacers on to stop the seat being smack on the bowl!- Noticed this when having a bath, plus there was a yellow colour where the screws once were- photo taken if needed! The sink had 2 hairline cracks in it.
The twin beds were comfortable enough but it did put you off having seen the floor. The wall next to the bed had more than enough marks upon it too.
A smart Samsung large screen tv was a great provision in the room.
Lastly the windows didn't fully shut flush and there was some noise entering the room from the nearby motorway- unlike triple glazed premier inns.
Overall a disappointing stay and unlikely to be repeated I'm afraid unless the hotel is thoroughly upgraded- so another 2 years??

Good hotel with great facilities spoilt by a few noisy guests who refuse to acknowledge others are trying to sleep which is annoying but there's a few things the hotel could do to promote Quiet Zones in the hotel znd to show respect for other guests etc
Breakfast and evening meal was good
Overall satisfied

We booked to help celebrate a friends 30th birthday, the DJ did not play any requests (obviously thought he was more important than the guests) the food was good, the hotel was clean and tidy and the staff were helpful

Enjoyed a one night stay at this very good hotel.
Reception staff were professional and dressed to impress with smart grey suits.This is much better then the casual look of some other village hotels I have stayed in. Name badges might also help and allow you to give staff the full credit they deserve.
Refurbished room and bed was very comfortable and the shower was great.
Pub staff and food all good. Very enjoyable breakfast too.
Enjoyable stay.
