We stayed here for one Saturday night with our 16 month old baby. The hotel appears to be very well managed. The reception, bar and lounge areas have been updated recently. All was very clean, bright and pleasant. There were always plenty of staff around willing to help (bringing highchairs etc).
We knew there was a big function on and had asked for an executive room well away from the party because of our baby. All was as requested when we arrived. Our room was huge and luxurious - big comfy bed, flat screen tv, whopping bathroom with massive tub and modern big separate shower. Again, everything was spotlessly clean. A lot of thought has gone into the design of the executive rooms, eg: blue night lights in bathroom, 3 seater sofa, lots of lamps etc. The room was also nice and warm on a cold January night, and the radiators could be controlled easily.
On the Saturday evening we ate in the Captain's Bar, generally the food was good, except for some overdone jacket wedges.
At the buffet breakfast, for a four star hotel we thought the continental selection was a bit lacking, there was little choice of cereal, fruit and yoghurt and no pastries (perhaps they were having an off day?). However, there was a good selection of hot items and all served cooked properly and very hot.
Overall we were very pleased, and would recommend this hotel, and we will stay here again if we are in the area.
