The hotel was wonderful from the woman who greeted us to the hotel. We loved David, the concierge, who showed us around the hotel and recommended great restaurants and changed one reservation to an earlier time for us. The breakfast was very good and a pleasing outlook.

The lady on reception was amazing. She was very friendly and attentive to our needs. She helped make our weekend special and I would recommend the Glasshouse just on her service. The rest of the staff were great and the hotel itself was lovely. No hesitation in recommending this hotel.
