Great facilities. Had lunch, dinner and breakfast in the restaurant. The food was amazing and great service. We had a treatment and used all the spa facilities. I had a massage with Hema and she was amazing! I would definately book in with Hema again. All the staff were so helpful and welcoming.

Five star, I don't think so!
Stayed for a wedding, went to the room got changed and went to the festivities. It was only in the night that we realised the bathroom floor tiles were loose, there was grout everywhere, it was like walking through the carpark bare foot. Complained to the reception in the morning on check out she said they'd have happily moved us. I said who wants moving in the middle of the night and that I'd be in touch. They've not responded since, £350 spent in their hotel on the room, drinks, parking (which is also a shambles) etc. and not even the courtesy to reply 2 star at best.

This hotel is special. They know they are but it’s still special. You get what you pay for and I recommend this hotel with the very special spa and wonderful staff. I didn’t try the main food in evening but the breakfast was… too good!!! I ate too much!!! The room was spectacular but… let me start from the beginning. The reception is great and the staff were impressive. I am not easily impressed nor am I a moaner, but these guys were great and so easy to talk to. We had questions and they answered them. We asked questions about the area and Olivier was fantastic. She guided me through everything I asked and I think she is very knowledgeable about the hotel and the area. The hotel is a great building and the room blew me away! We had a delicious delux suite… I wanted to stay longer !!! The spa was… just amazing!!! Yes yes I know it costs a few quid…. I don’t care I’m coming back!!! I have one hotel In the country I use regularly and it’s close to mr in the Cotswolds and is amazing… I go away a lot and not once have I found a hotel better…. Until this trip???. You did it you surprised me and your the best hotel I have been to now. Busy this hotel and enjoy the spa. Take tome to just …. Relax !!! I am going again

Receptionist very helpful, room and view lovely, excellent shower; only let down by 'missing' staff at breakfast. Literally had to find someone to welcome us in/show to a table. Agreed, it was busy due to half-term, but surely that could have been provisioned for?

Room was amazing. Very big and clean. The balcony overlooking the bay would be great during the summer. Breakfast was a feast, plenty of options and plenty of staff around so no tables waiting to be cleaned. Will be looking at staying again.
