De-lightful and stunning venue!

Advantages: Excellent service, beautiful grounds, superb accommodation
Disadvantages: Not close to public transport access

...if you go to the De Vere website. After lunch we took and gentle stroll in the grounds, and were able to view parts of the golf course that are part of the complex. As we were only staying for a long weekend, we didn't get the chance to make use of the spa and pool, which looked fantastic, and we only briefly had the chance to make use of the spacious bar area. The only slightly negative point I would raise, is that it is not close to any public ...
...our stay directly through the De Vere website (www.devere.co.uk), and would advise to check under their "Offers" tab, as we found that they were offering 2 nights for the price 1 for the weekend we travelled, however given the wonderful level of service and standards we experienced, we would have no issues in booking this accommodation again, at the full price! ...

Review of De Vere Dunston Hall, Norwich

Excellent w/e at Belton Woods, Grantham

Advantages: Location, everything all on site
Disadvantages: None that we could see

Although this hotel was recommended to us by a friend, after reading the online reviews, we were somewhat apprehensive. We need not have worried, we had a surprisingly relaxing weekend with our 2 children,12 and 7 yrs old. The staff were very helpful and friendly. We ate in Stantons on the first evening and had a lovely 3 course meal, the waiters knew their menu and any changes we wanted to make were no problem at all. The family room was a reasonable ...
...would expect to find and more. We used the pool and spa facilities - at half term and on a weekend there are family splash times for an hour in the morning and afternoon, where floats and balls etc are put out for children to use, these are cleared away very quickly at the end of the hour and the pool becomes more peaceful. Although the hotel seemed very busy with outside events ( at least 2 weddings taking place) this didn't alter the level of service, ...

Review of De Vere Belton Woods, Grantham

All this from a Hotel?!

Advantages: Everything you need under one roof.
Disadvantages: Can prove to be very expensive.

...of this review but the Hilton at Coylumbridge really has so much to offer I didn't want to leave anything out!! Having heard a lot of good reports about the Hilton Coylumbridge just outside Aviemore, we have been trying for a few years now to stay there. The Hilton at Coylumbridge is well known for being a very good hotel for families, with lots to offer the kids. When our kids were younger we often tried to stay there but we either couldn’t get ...
...of miles outside Aviemore the Hilton Coylumbridge is situated in a 65 acre woodland estate within the Cairngorm National Park. Quite an impressive looking building from the outside the Hilton has ample car parking both in front of and behind the hotel. The hotel offers 175 guests rooms with a range of different guest rooms, family rooms and suites. They also have lodges suitable for up to 8 people within the hotel grounds. There is a conference room, ...

Review of Hilton Coylumbridge, Aviemore

Tired, rundown, overpriced, rubbish customer service

Advantages: Lucky not to get food poisning
Disadvantages: Staff are rubbish and hotel in state of disrepair

I have stayed in all grades of hotels all over the world but this one takes the prize for being a total joke. Its trying to be upper-class but can't even get the basics right. Check in - they got our name wrong on the booking, but when we tried to correct this with them they seemed totally perplexed on how to do it. The Stairs - leading to the bedrooms are broken so its very easy to trip and fall when using them. They also polish the handrails ...
...and can't grip them. The Room - had water leak damage on the ceiling in 3 separate locations. The toilet cistern lid was broken in half. The shower/bath was very run down with lime scale everywhere and the tile grouting needed replaced. The Bed - sheets had a burn mark on them, plain white sheets with a 50pence size burn mark and the chamber staff still put it on the bed. Not very professional. Room Key - had a massive lead weight attached to it ...

Review of Red Lion, Henley-on-Thames

Coombe Abbey.. so much more than a hotel

Advantages: Great rooms, great food
Disadvantages: None

...is so much more to Coombe Abbey than simply just being a wondeful hotel. I have visited 'The Coombe' on a couple of occasions now, 2 weddings, 1 Christmas party and on many Sunday afternoon, just simply strolling through the picteresque grounds. A long drive way takes you up to Coombe Abbey and on eather side as you drive up the very impressive driveway you have lovely greenery and trees. There is a car park on the right hand side (don't park here ...
...views, weather and all that Coombe Abbey as to offer. It was a great family atmosphere. Drive a little further up and you will come to the hotel car park (again located on the right). There is then a little walk over the moat bridge to the magnificent hotel ( or get your other half to drive over the moat bridge and drop you off at the door!). The Hotel Originally Coombe Abbey was a 12th Century Cistercian Abbey (at a party I went to a monk did ...
