mixed feelings about my stay

generator noise lacking compensation
the room was spacious, which i appreciated.
The advertised luxury standard wasn't met. My room resembled an accessibility care home, certainly not what i expected. A persistent generator noise disrupted sleep, and the lack of carpet added to the discomfort. the spa's poolside shower wasn't working, also i couldn't shower after using the sauna. Despite raising these issues with staff, no compensation was offered. i really looked forward to leaving.

The massage was spot on and almost put me to sleep. the outdoor relaxation pool was a great temperature for sitting. I had a little bit of the bubbly before my chorizo hash.
The breakfast reservation process was restrictive. You could only book the day before, before 10pm for the discounted price!

Really good Quality Throughout

spacious layout rainfall shower attentive staff
My room included a spacious layout and high-end furnishings. The bathroom featured two separate sinks and a rainfall shower. I also found the in-house restaurant offered an excellent menu and very attentive staff. I would be glad to return in the future.
During my visit, I noted that parking availability seemed somewhat limited. The main car park was quite full during peak hours, so finding a spot close to the entrance proved a small challenge. Additional spaces would improve the arrival process.
Dining

The in-house restaurant, BLOK, provided an extensive menu, and meals were prepared to a high standard. I observed that the dining area seated approximately 60 guests and also offered an outdoor terrace. The wine list had several choices.

small spa housing estate
the staff were very cute and the hotel felt totally relaxed.
I was surprised the hotel is tucked away inside a housing estate. I did not expect that. the spa is small and consists of only a sauna and indoor pool. i had to pay extra to go outside, and the outdoor area was very full due to the sunshine.

unexpected charge unreasonable cost
The staff was friendly and helpful. This was acceptable.
The outdoor pool came with an unexpected extra charge of £25 per person. This felt very unreasonable. using the small pool for only one hour for that price really detracted from the overall experience. i expected better value, considering spa access was included with the room.
