Best Spa Hotel in Ardmore

The view from this hotel is just superb! That is the main selling point of the hotel. Staff were also generally very good, check in was smooth. It was like a maze getting to the hotel room. It’s a strangely designed hotel and annoying that while we were close to the reception area you still had to go a very long way to get from room to reception(down two flights of stairs then walk across to other side of the hotel and back up another two flights of stairs) The reason for this was because you couldn’t go through dining room to get to reception. I understand this however hotel was badly designed to allow this be the case. We ate in the bar and it lacked atmosphere. For a five star hotel the experience, between both service and food, didn’t reflect this. The food wasn’t great and very high prices. The bar needs revamping and freshening up. The pool area is nice and calming but also dated. The bedroom needed serious updating also. The shower wasn’t working properly and neither was the toilet. The decor was tired looking. Nice touch with a few freebies in the room though. Overall we just feel the experience wasn’t worth the money we paid for it.
