I think this hotel has Hotel.com and Booking specific rooms in the hotel. The grounds are grand and passing areas like the spa elevates the look of an otherwise outdated and tired hotel past it's best. My room was on the same side of a hallway that hosted some luxury looking rooms on the right vs dorm room doors on the left (I was in the rooms on the left).
The room was clean although it had a few flags - prompts on the bedside to make a cup of tea, but no kettle? Toiletries opened and potentially used in the bathroom. "Filtered water" in the room which had it's seal broken and the water tasted a bit rank.
The buffet breakfast looks the part but the coffee was shocking and a lot of the food tasted stale, old and far from quality. I used the sauna which was lovely and the pool areas looked relaxing.
For some reason you have to give your robe back at reception? At peak departure times this became pretty messy and seems quite unhygienic for FOH staff to do.
Hey, its the best I could find in the area. I'd probably go back if I had to but I hope the hotels owners see this and put some of that spa money to where it could elevate the entire venue to match it's exterior charm. I'd have raised these in person but even using the express checkout was hassle enough.
