It is a beautiful hotel and it was .y second time that i booked this property as i liked it very much last time. This time, my checkin was with difficulties as they didn't give me the room that i had originally booked. They eventually gave us an extra bed and expedia agent tried to help. Overall it went well

Amazing hotel
My wife and I found this hotel to be spectacular and a very good price. We did not sign up for the breakfast, so cannot comment on that. Would definitely stay there again if the opportunity arises.

Perfect stay for a work trip
The reception team were very friendly and helpful. The bedroom was nice and the bed was comfortable. There was no water in the bedroom or biscuits on the tea and coffee selection tray. I stayed for two nights and nothing was replenished on the tea tray. I’m sure if I had asked I could’ve had extra things. The size of the bedroom and bathroom was huge and the bath was lovely.
