Simply overpriced

Liked:We stayed in a plush room that unfortunately overlooked the car park. It was pleasant and quite a high quality room.The shower was large and had high quality hair and shower products with a not so fluffy bath robe and slippers.The room did not have a fridge, which considering the price was more than a little disappointing for a hotel of this advertised distinction and so we had to make do with uht milk to make a hot drink. We couldn't gain access to the grounds as there was a wedding. The breakfast was good, but the fact that a supplementary menu was slid under my nose that had porridge at an extra at £5 and eggs royale at another £7 rather irked me. Upselling for the sake of it, in an already dare I say, overpriced hotel felt needlessly exploitative. There is clearly a lucrative market for this kind of hotel in the south and it certainly wasn't obvious there is any kind of cost of living crisis here. The parking was free.

Very enjoyable and relaxing.

Liked:Beautiful peaceful room in The Mews with air conditioning. The breakfast was very good, although it would have been nice to have some hot dishes to order a la carte. Hash browns, pastries and bread were all very good. The Spa was great, with a big pool and good facilities in The Club, particularly the sauna which was excellent. Very high quality Spa treatments. Great cocktails at the Octagon Bar. Delicious burger, fries and crab brioche bun at The Brasserie.

Disliked:There was some mistake with our lunch order at the Brasserie when we arrived, which meant that our food took more than an hour to arrive. While I accept that these kind of glitches do happen, we had to ask the staff twice to check on our order before they realized that the original order did not go through. Better training needed? There was no cold plunge in the Spa, which would have been great after the sauna. Some of the hydrotherapy options in The Club pool were not working.
