The hotel is beautiful.

From the landscaped gardens to the stained glass windows, guests were entranced by the stunning beauty of this hotel. They loved the oak paneling and antique furnishings.

positive:

The food is excellent.

Guests rather enjoyed the food served at the hotel's restaurant, Oak Panelled Babington. The found the prices to be quite reasonable, and the food to be excellent quality. They especially enjoyed the view from their table, which overlooked the picturesque gardens.


Negative Reviews

negative:

Some of the rooms are rather small.

Many guests found fault with the size of the rooms. They described them as quite cramped, with several saying they had to take turns getting dressed due to there being not enough space for two people to get ready at once. They would have appreciated more room to spread out.

negative:

Unreliable plumbing?.

There were multiple recent reviews stating that during their stay the water "failed" and they had to be moved to a different room in order for them to be able to shower. It was unclear why this transpired and if it is some sort of chronic issue.

negative:

The Wi-Fi is a bit slow.

Those that used the Wi-Fi during their stay found it to be slow and unreliable. Since most guests tended to be leisure travellers they didn’t find it too bothersome.
