We had the best room ‘Emperor’ which was fabulous. Unfortunately it was during the heatwave and we roasted as no air con. Lovely staff, good breakfast and dinner. Lost a point for maintenance as the terrace is tatty and needs some TLC but our room was top notch.

The hotel was fine. ********* should not advertise breakfast included, when midweek it is not. The hotel kindly provided breakfast when we pointed out you had advertised it. Also very unhappy with your link to Tesco vouchers. We had to use your specific booking channel to use our Tesco vouchers, which cost nearly twice as much as if I had booked it directly myself. This rendered the vouchers almost valueless as far as we were concerned. So, in summary, hotel very nice, but not happy with the elements linked to you.
