“For a three-star stay, the spa facilities strike me as a genuine asset, though booking treatments ahead seems essential; rooms facing away from the road promise a quieter stay, given the location. With decent-sized family rooms and proximity to attractions such as Legoland, the hotel seems well-placed for those travelling with children. All in all, it seems a reliable base for exploring the area.”

The christmas dinner i attended was delicious. Every course was included. the restaurant manager was attentive and ensured everything ran smoothly, with his team being fantastic. check-in was quick, and my room, a simple, clean space, suited the price well. fortunately, many alternative choices were available even though they initially ran out of prosecco.
at the very start of the evening, i attempted to order a bottle of prosecco for the table! though, they had already run out

Check-in was quick. The room was clean. Staff are friendly, it was obvious they enjoyed their jobs. The fitness suite was immaculate, it looked new. I would return for a quiet time.
