We love this place but it is getting tired. The maintenance is in need of an uplift and the rooms and lounge areas need a refit. Still a lovely stay and Sindhu was excellent for lunch. The reception staff for the hotel were OK but lacked motivation to welcome their guests with any enthusiasm. Breakfast was excellent and the setting for the hotel sets this apart from most.

On arrival noticed air con not working in room spoke with Sophie on reception who said that she would get maintenance to come and sort it out. Reminded about an hour later “yes, all in hand” Went out for the evening, came back and you guessed it, not been sorted, boiling hot and not helped by being on the top floor. Building is tired, bar staff in garden serve you like they are doing you a favour. Breakfast is good and staff in there really helpful.

Beautiful location with stunning views and it is lovely to sit in the garden by the river, but the hotel itself is shabby. We had a lukewarm welcome from reception, service was very slow - although the staff were pleasant and polite. Our room overlooked the river but was in need of refurbishment. Drinks were overly expensive - felt ripped off. Food was mainly ok - good breakfast - but I did not enjoy my tiny tasteless shepherds pie at evening meal. Probably wouldn't recommend or return to this hotel again.
