On arrival, the hotel sort of looks very grand but as you walk in you’re back in the 80s. I’m guessing the hotel hasn’t been decorated since then, it’s very outdated and could do with some refurbishment. The reception staff were very nice and check in was easy. The room itself was again, very outdated but I can’t fault the cleanliness it was pretty much spotless and the beds were very comfy. Tea and coffee making facilities in the room too which is always an added bonus. I did have an issue with the TV not working on the first night and reception did move our room for us, but it probably would have been easier just to swap the tv? Nonetheless, we were grateful for him solving the issue so quickly. The welcome booklet in the room is really (I mean REALLY) detailed, down to describing the carpets in the corridors. I think if the bar didn’t charge £7 for a bottle of kopparberg, the bar area would have a few more guests in having drinks. The lake view was nice from the bar but again not worth sitting out there for the price of the drinks. We didn’t eat anything so can’t comment on the quality of food but the menu looked quite expensive. All in all I’d stay again as it’s close to the venue we visit but it seriously needs an update if there are to be more than four guests staying at once across the hotel.
