Fantastic Spa Experience

“I truly enjoyed my time at the spa. The massage I received was absolutely fantastic, and I left feeling completely rejuvenated. The pool was a good size and temperature, making it a pleasure to swim laps. Although the spa itself was a separate building, I appreciated the high quality of the Elemis products used for treatment.” view full review

5.2/10

The hotel has a lovely exterior and beautiful surroundings, but our experience was marred by several disappointments. Our first room was cramped and not what we expected for the price we paid, and the service was lacking, especially at check-in. We were also not impressed with the noise from other guests, which disrupted our stay. The breakfast was decent, but our overall impression was tainted by unresolved issues during our stay.

Rooms

5.0

The initial room we were assigned was small and dingy, far from what we expected from an executive suite. We later moved to a slightly better room, still lacking basic amenities like a fridge.

Service

The service was disappointing from check-in to addressing our concerns about the room and amenities. Staff seemed indifferent to our complaints and did not apologize for the issues we faced.

Location

The hotel is situated in a beautiful area, close to the main attractions of Stratford, which is a definite plus. However, the location didn’t compensate for the issues we encountered.

The hotel has a charming yet somewhat tired appearance with a historic vibe, and while my room was clean and comfortable, it felt more on the average side. The dining experience had its ups and downs, with excellent food but slow service and occasional mix-ups. The pool area was nice but could be warmer, making it a mixed bag overall.

We had a wonderful stay at the hotel, featuring a cozy atmosphere and spacious rooms with lovely garden views. The dining experience was excellent with well-presented meals and a delightful breakfast selection. However, there were service hiccups during dinner that detracted from the overall experience. The hotel is well-placed for exploring the nearby attractions, making it a good option for a relaxing getaway.

I had a lovely stay at the hotel with a beautiful room that featured a four-poster bed and a charming sitting area. While the hotel could use some updates, it had a clean pool and spa that we thoroughly enjoyed. The staff were polite and helpful, but some areas seemed a bit chaotic, especially during breakfast. Overall, it was a good value, especially with the competitive pricing for our room.

5.8/10

The hotel has a central location with some charming character but falls short in cleanliness and service, with issues like a poor check-in experience and dirty rooms. I found the dining to be quite good but pricey for what it is. Facilities like the spa and pool are a plus but overall, it's not a place I'll return to given the negative experiences I had.

Rooms

The room was disappointingly small, dingy, and not as clean as I'd hoped, with unpleasant odors and an awkward wardrobe setup.
