Hotel Dengan Spa di Newport, United Kingdom

Very xmasy and festive. Overall we had a lovely stay however very expensive and some small things. You needed to prebook restaurants and spa which meant we were unable to use spa, and certain restaurants as we booked the trip on the morning and no reservations left, had to have room service which took over hour and half for sandwiches and no hot food after 22:30. Breakfast good although very long wait 40 mins on day of departure we used the signature restaurant as Olive/main restaurant even busier. The bar with singer and Musician was relaxing and offered just what we were looking for but min of £16 each per cocktail is steep. We used the signature lounge for a free prosecco (between 4-6) on day of arrival but closed early so never used again. Small things in room- never replenished water or Welsh cakes or wine which we upgraded for. No corkscrew and phone didn’t work to call housekeeping, found staff member and waited an hour and it still didn’t arrive so we took the wine to get it opened. Can’t connect to screen play if using apple, only android? No flannels in bathroom and no bubble bath for the bath which was a shame. Mostly friendly staff although some on reception had a slight attitude when we asked for basics like water. Concierge was helpful and friendly. Bar and restaurant staff attentive. We would go back (already visited before) and ask for upgrade to signature rooms.
