Outstanding staff at the Marquis
The Marquis has just completed renovations, and while there were a few teething problems, the staff was wonderful. They could not have done more to make our stay wonderful. Special shout out to David, Ryann, Lucy, Emma, Kate, Annabelle, Carmin, and everyone else we came in contact with, all were wonderful. The spa and pool were not even mentioned as they just opened, the facility is one of the best we ever visited, again with the staff to match. We are looking forward to our next stay.

Beautiful hotel, shame about the food.
A lovely comfortable hotel with beautiful decor and warm friendly staff. Rooms are not sound proofed- so you are able to hear a lot of noise around dinner time. The room it self was beautiful, with a comfortable bed and cosy lighting. The bathroom was nice- the shower was wonderful. Unfortunately our trip was let down by the food! My husband had a full English breakfast, in which we did have to complain as the sausage appeared to be raw. They apologised profusely, took our plates and spoke to the chef, on his return he told us the sausage was probed and was certainly cooked, however the sausage was pink as they have pink preserve in them! Is this a thing? I certainly haven’t come across this before. Surely a good sausage wouldn’t need “pink preserve” in it ! £4 was take off my husband’s £20 breakfast as good will- even though he only had 20% of his breakfast due to being put off.

Lovely location and views.
Lovely location & view, good size rooms, good service and nice food at dinner and breakfast. Food was towards the pricey end but it was worth it. We will definitely return.

Definitely a wedding night to remember!
We spent our wedding night at the Marquis, it was the best night to end a perfect day. The venue is absolutely stunning, we stayed in the Cornwallis Suite. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for a romantic get away, with amazing views from the balcony. All staff from the front desk to the chefs in the kitchen were all so nice, I’ve never stayed in a hotel with a more welcoming feel to it. Thank you to everyone there for making it so special for us.

The hotel was beautiful, the room was clean and warm. We had a fantastic stay, just wish we could of stayed for longer! The only negative I have is that there was building work going on which we weren’t aware of before we booked, however we stayed over a bank holiday so it didn’t effect our stay.
