Lovely stay, smart, nice staff
Smart clean hotel. Friendly staff. Very nice young lady in restaurant/bar (long dark hair) who was just lovely with everybody she interacted with and clearly had good knowledge re the hotel and offering good service. Another lady greeting at the restaurant was very nice too and accommodating of our request to eat from the lounge menu. Spa area was small and was unmanned both times we were in the corridor area - which was a shame - as we and another couple didn’t have instructions re the therapy pool area (we were waiting for jets to kick in on a timer - but they don’t - there’s a hot tub style button but nothing to highlight it). Bfast and evening meal - very nice thank you. Would recommend the hotel but there are better spas. To be honest the price does reflect that. Lovely position on the water.
