    This was a last minute booking and Booking.com offered me an upgraded room for £15. I accepted the offer and was charged £24.75 for it. I queried this but as the link had then gone I had no photographic proof ( how can this not be traced?). The pool was lovely, not busy, the steam room was nice. I decided to have a long shower back in my hotel room rather than a quick shower at the pool, however, I then discovered the hair conditioner bottle was empty. Having no idea how long I would wait for it to be refilled and I was in the middle of showering I had to leave my hair unconditioned after going swimming. I reported this the following morning. My husband found the bed uncomfortable, I found the bed firm but good. We arrived at breakfast and the room was not too busy. Our pot of tea was brought over quickly and we were told to enjoy the continentel breakfast(which was excellent) and somebody would be over to take our order for the hot breakfast. After waiting roughly 20 mins after finishing the continentel breakfast I had to ask a member of staff to take our order. After roughly 30 mins of waiting for this, I had to ask if we would receive it soon. When it arrived the food was closer to warm than hot. We saw the room getting busier and then quiten down again, we also saw other people who arrived after us receiving their breakfasts and then leaving while we were still waiting. The staff did look to be working hard and I think we were just unfortunate to to overlooked, twice! Unfortunately my lasting impression was being slightly disapointed.

    Location of the hotel was fantastic, the view from room was lovely, the pool was also very nice.

    Generally staff were excellent but the service during our meal in the Garden Kitchen was poor. One waitress seemed to have far too many customers to cope with so service was very slow and unfriendly.

    Fantastic location and brilliant room with views over Gylly beach.

    The room was adequate but not worthy of the price charged. For example the shower was broken & required a repair. Car parking was difficult with a long walk from the room which was situated in another building to where my car was parked.

    The Hotel staff were very helpful & friendly. I am sure the spa was very good but I didn't have time!

    Parking! For the number of rooms the available parking is nowhere near adequate. I had to park in the 'pay & display' down the hill. It's not far, but it's fortunate I don't have any mobility issues as if so it could cause a problem as the hill, while short, is relatively steep.

    Great reception on arrival, and the hotel and room are very clean and 'neat'. The only meal I had was breakfast, which was served quickly and was excellent.

    The walls are very thin. Could hear conversations above us, as well as the extractor fan going off in the room next to us. The grouting needs doing in the bathroom.

    The bar is beautiful, the food was amazing, the breaking choices were great. The room was lovely with robes and the pool and gym were great. Received drinks voucher for my friends birthday with a card. The location is amazing with beautiful views.

    Paid extra for a balcony which wasn’t a very good lay out in the room, couldn’t see out easy and had a block of apartments in our view. Was supposed to be a live singer on which was looking forward to which never showed up. Also think the hydrotherapy pool should be included in the price when you stay.

    Absolutely loved the hydrotherapy pool and outdoor facilities.

    Nothing negative other than parking which at times was very busy but we knew this in advance. Uphill 15 min walk to the town if that would be an issue for you.

    The hotel was beautifully decorated. Great view from the dining room, breakfast was excellent. Staff were very friendly. A, fridge was added to our room which was great. We will definitely go back there to stay again. Hotel offered us, a discount as there were building works starting next door

    Nothing however the choice at breakfast for gluten and dairy free is very limited and information is not available on the breakfast menu. The berries and yogurt could easily be adapted with Alpro plain yogurt.

    We booked a room with a courtyard for the outdoor space. Then told there was building works so we were moved to a different room upstairs. This room looked clearly onto what looked like a building site. We would have been better on lower ground as we wouldnt have seen the mess from the fence surrounding the courtyard. I feel we moved and ended up worse off.

    Food was lovely and friendly staff, pool.was very clean. Bed was lovely and comfortable.

    The TV could do with more channels. A dog was barking in one of the nearby rooms. Drilling from the work being done started early. I think 8.00 am is too early as I wanted to sleep in for a rest.

    The ambience of the hotel and the friendly, attentive staff members. The food is very good, especially the breakfasts. The locality of the hotel is also superb.
