Staff were friendly and helpful. Breakfast was good, the only thing that let it down was the cold coffee on two off our days there. By the third day we went without.

Beautiful view and nice hotel

View from the hotel is absolutely gorgeous. Reception and bar looks very nice decorative. We just stay one night but was everything perfect for us. Room was big 308 ( we had a dog too ), bed and mattress very comfortable. Room was nice and warm but heating didn't work, but we had soaking coats so we tell on this on the reception and very kind gentleman bring electric radiator which help for drying the cloths. Reception lady's are friendly too. Hot water in a shower ( just little bit small pressies but ok ). We didn't had breakfast so can't say nothing about food. I was reading reviews before and was worried little bit but now I completely don't understand why people are so fassy!? For us everything Perfect!!!

Older hotel, but clean & safe

It is clean, but definitely an older hotel. Parking is easy & it is in a location that overlooks lake.

Very untrust worthy.

Arrogant, deceitful manager who tried to double charge my credit card even though it had been explained that the additional charge was not valid. He took no notice and tried to charge my credit card anyway. Luckily Barclays Fraud team spotted the activity and blocked the additional transaction.

My previous visits to this hotel have all been very good. However on 15 March, the very loud fire alarm in all the guests' rooms went off six times between 02:00 and 05:30. Not a good sleep!
