Staff were excellent (bar staff slightly less so). One of our rooms wasn't ready for us when we arrived which was a nuisance. For the rating and price of the room we felt that there was a very slight faded feel (dirty marks around light switches etc). Picky, but at those prices, why not? Overall maybe a bit old-fashioned and stuffy for our taste....

The hotel was nice but really needs an outside area, you could sit out on the road but no where to go read a book in the sunshine.

For a 5* Luxury hotel we were disappointed that there were no in-room tea/coffee making facilities. In addition, and perhaps because breakfast is not included in the room rate, the choice of food at breakfast was not as good as we had expected and the service was poor.

As a former high-class hotelier I have very high standards. Not one thing about this hotel was a source of disappointment - a rare thing today. Delighted with stay.
