Lovely staff. Emails prior to stay not responded to which i would expect of a hotel of this standard; all sorted at check in though. Missed a proper hotel bar when we returned after spending the day out. Drinks are served in the restaurant. Having said that the staff were wonderful; just not quite as relaxing drinking at restaurant type tables laid for breakfast rather than in a bar area. I guess we would have known this had we researched a little better, and not the end of the world. Lifts and hallways were a little tired/could have done with a hoover.
