Unfortunately, our stay was disappointing overall. Check-in was extremely slow, with each guest taking around 10 minutes to be assigned a room. On arrival, our room was unbearably hot due to the lack of air conditioning and restricted window opening. The I appreciate that the hotel can't control the weather, and the staff did kindly agree to move us to another room on the other side of the hotel where it would be cooler. However, despite being told rooms were available, we then waited around 20 minutes at reception with very little communication before being assigned a new room. Combined with the initial check-in, it was almost an hour after arriving before we were finally settled, so future guests may want to factor this into their plans.
The replacement room was still very warm, and the fan provided unfortunately didn't work, but this was replaced with another by reception after a phone call down. We also found it disappointing that parking costs an additional £7 per day, even for hotel guests. Breakfast was okay, and the pool facilities were good. There also appeared to be confusion with taxi bookings at reception, with several guests left waiting without transport. Overall, while there were some positives, the experience means we probably won't choose a Leonardo Hotel again.
