Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers a lovely view from the Juliet balcony with great fluffy towels in the bathroom. The attentive and friendly service compensates for some shortcomings in customer service. The location is in a beautiful tranquil garden with a chilled atmosphere, perfect for a coffee after a walk around the Victorian gardens. The dining experience includes locally caught fish and the facilities are well-kept despite some areas needing improvement.
I had a delightful stay at this hotel. The rooms were comfortable with fantastic views of the gardens, but the lack of cupboard space was a downside. The service was top-notch, making up for any minor customer service issues experienced. The location in the beautiful tranquil gardens was simply breathtaking, offering a chilled atmosphere and great outside dining options. The dining experience, although including tasty fried oysters, had limited choices. Overall, I found the facilities to be well-kept and enjoyable.
I felt like I was in a paradise surrounded by beautiful gardens when staying at this hotel. The rooms were spacious and had big windows opening onto the lovely green walls of the garden. I could have spent hours just admiring the peaceful views. The service was attentive and friendly, which made my stay even more enjoyable. The location was a dream, with wonderful gardens and a chilled atmosphere perfect for relaxation and enjoying delicious food. However, the dining options were a bit limited, and I wished there were more variety on the menu. Overall, a lovely stay with great value for money.
