Disappointing stay
We were very disappointed in our stay. I booked a suite as our room. We arrived and got given our card we went up to the room and it wasn’t a suite. We then went back down to reception thinking it was an error. We was then told “sorry we don’t have any suites available”. The only reason we booked the hotel was to have the suite for our anniversary night. The fact we were not made aware of the error and just given a standard room is very disappointing. Then to make it worse those on reception put the blame on who I had booked it through and didn’t have any sympathy to the situation. We are very disappointed. All we have been offered is the refund price difference for the stay.

Perfect, stylish and great location
Lovely hotel and staff can’t do enough for you, everyone was smiling and happy which is always a good sign. Lovely decor and lounge area, coffee and breakfast were great. Location is perfect, The bedrooms are gorgeous and the bed is the biggest you’ll ever see! I’ll be back again soon.

It should be so much better.
The service here really lets The Alan down. Check in efficient and friendly, but the evening service was CHAOS. It literally took us 30 minutes to get served 2 pints of beer. The rooms as ever are fabulous and thats why we repeat stayed but afraid this will be our last time.

Very disappointed overall.
Not happy with our stay overall.we had a small dimly lit room but the main problem was at breakfast. The service was slow and when we did get served they gave us the wrong breakfasts and not what we ordered. So they had to be replaced which took a lot more time. We complained and the lady in charge said she would organise a refund for the breakfasts. Reception told us that they would contact you and you would sort out the refund (2x£17.00). I sent you an email regarding this on Monday 18th.but I’ve had no reply - not even an acknowledgement !
