the staff were friendly and helpful. the room was lovely, clean, and spacious (i really liked the décor). the thermal spa was very relaxing, just what i needed after a long drive. i'd definitely stay here again next time i am visiting the area.
the car park was full upon arrival. this resulted in a ten-minute walk from an alternative parking location. i wish there had been more information about the hotel amenities on arrival.
