Nice looking hotel but the service is a joke. I went in, stood at the bar for ages trying to order a drink, got ignored and sat down. Even though I was sitting right opposite the bar and I tried to catch the eyes of the passing waiters, none of thm asked what I wanted... So 30 minutes later I left.

Went here for Christmas Lunch and there would have been about 30+. All plates and food served was piping hot (except the Mince Pies). Thoroughly enjoyed by all in my family.

Good well equipped rooms but make sure to request one in the "New" building above the pool. Plenty of free parking and if you don't fancy the restaurant for dinner the town is literally outside the front door where there are the usual selection of Curry Houses and take away's etc.

Stopped overnight during our Bath - Oxford tour. Lovely clean and comfy rooms, nice size twin/double. We had a (pre-ordered) 3 course meal that was very good, food was excellent and served attentively. Decent bar finished the evening well, to the satisfaction of all our party. Breakfast was self served but plenty to enjoy, the normal cereals and full English. Overall, we would definitely use again, and fully recommend it.

Lovely hotel. The staff were very helpful. We had a lovely lunch in the restaurant which really made my Dad's 70th birthday special. Gym and swimming pool facilities. Will definitely visit again.
