We stayed at The Marcliffe in early May. This is the first time we have stayed in this hotel for well over 10 years and I have to comment that not much seems to have been done to the place since then. The ladies on reception were friendly and polite. We were able to get access to our room before... More

I booked a Spa day for myself & three members of my family as a Christmas treat. The girls in the Spa were lovely & we all thoroughly enjoyed the treatments. Totally different story when we went thoroughly to the hotel for lunch. No smiles greeted us. Asked which restaurant we had booked we didn't know because the Spa staff... More

Stayed here for one night as my work put on a party. What a beautiful hotel nestled on the outskirts of the city. We stayed in a junior suite on the 1st floor. Absolute luxury from the start, molten brown toiletries, massive soft bed with fluffy duvet and champagne. Just what the doctor ordered I hear you say. Beautiful hotel... More

Another visit to the restaurant,, flawless service from start to finish as usual, perfectly cooked scallops and steaks and the best peppercorn sauce we have tasted, this place is run with military precision & as usual Mr Spence (proprietor) was keeping a watchful eye on the excellent staff. I'm in a wheelchair and they always make sure I have a... More

I have eaten here twice this year, once for lunch and once for dinner. The quality and presentation of the food was very good each time. Beef cooked to perfection. Lovely fudge and chocolates at end of the meal. The setting is also lovely. My only criticism from friends that I dined with is that the dairy free and special... More

We were treated by friends for my husband's 60th Birthday. Went for Sunday lunch and it was exceptional. Service second to none, and ofcourse the surroundings are superb. We had a pre lunch drink sitting by a lovely fire, and returned there after our lunch for coffee. A very relaxing special occasion

Had a wonderful Sunday lunch meal in this establishment, from the moment I booked to the time I left these premises I found the whole experience a joy. The staff, the service and the quality of food on order were all of the highest order. The staff were friendly, attentive and obviously well trained. The food was brilliant, well cooked,... More
