I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! The rooms were spacious and had some lovely little touches that made my stay extra special. The spa bath was incredibly relaxing, and the view from my room was breathtaking. The service was excellent, with the staff providing a professional and friendly service throughout my visit. The location was perfect, nestled in beautiful gardens and in a nice area. The dining experience offered decent offerings but could have been improved with more food available. The facilities were top-notch, making my stay truly enjoyable.
The hotel offers modern rooms with better quality features like a very comfortable bed, a good bathroom, and some nice little touches. The staff provides professional service, although there is room for improvement in terms of friendliness, especially from the management. The dining experience offers decent offerings but may need improvement in food availability. The facilities are well-maintained, ensuring a pleasant stay overall.
The hotel is in a lovely area with beautiful gardens. The rooms were clean and comfortable, although the mattress was very soft. The management could improve their service by learning to smile more, but overall, they were attentive and provided a professional service. The dining experience had decent offerings, but some food items were nearly gone. The location is great for transport connections and conferences, and I can't wait to go back to stay at Cranage Hall.
