Reviews and Ratings
I was pleasantly surprised by the lovely Wind in the Willows themed rooms overlooking a courtyard. The 5' bed, feature slipper bath, his and her sinks, and luxurious toiletries added a touch of luxury. However, the dining experience was overpriced for the quality offered.
My stay at the hotel was simply grand. The rooms were exquisite, featuring a luxurious four-poster bed, a spacious bathroom, and all the amenities I could ask for. It was a truly comfortable experience, and the proximity to my family made it even better. However, it would be nice to see some adjustments in the dining options. The service was top-notch, and the staff went above and beyond to assist during our late arrival. The location offered opportunities for both relaxation and exploration. Overall, a very pleasant stay.
The hotel is situated conveniently near the A14, offering clean, well-appointed rooms and a great breakfast selection. The rooms might be a bit small but feature very comfortable beds, though some additional background music could enhance the ambiance. Overall, an excellent stay with minor room accessibility challenges for wheelchair users.
My stay at the hotel was quite pleasant overall. The rooms, though not as large as expected, were clean and had quality products with a comfortable sumptuous bed. The service was mixed, with some unprofessional moments but also delightful interactions. The location was excellent, providing a peaceful ambiance away from traffic noise. The dining experience was good, especially the bar, offering delicious options. The facilities were modern and enjoyable, adding to the overall experience.
The Honeymoon suite was lovely, comfortable, and beautifully decorated, perfect for a romantic stay. The service was excellent, the location was picturesque despite some unexpected encounters, and the dining experience was satisfying. A great choice overall with a few minor drawbacks.
