Great value and comfort
I stayed here with my partner and daughter. I made my reservation with Liz, who has the loveliest phone manner. She really made me look forward to my stay and couldn't have been more helpful. The bedroom was clean, warm and spacious and the decor was very tasteful. The dinner we ordered in the evening was very tasty and we got generous portions.My daughter's meal was less than ¿¿¿6 from the child's menu and she was full afterwards.The swimming pool was warmer than what I'm used to so I could have stayed in it all day. My daughter can't swim without a float but there were plenty provided, so I got to lounge in the jacuzzi for a few minutes while she floated around! We were provided with fluffy towels and the changing room was warm and spacious.Breakfast buffet was delicious and included fresh fruit and pancakes with maple syrup.The young man who showed us to our breakfast table was so pleasant and helpful, and made sure we had everything we needed.I highly recommend the Carlton Shearwater hotel for value and comfort and will definitely return.

What fantastic weekend
My family of four children between the ages of 4 and 7 had the most wonderful time in this hotel. The staff could not have been more helpful. It was our first time in a hotel since the twins were born and we felt like the only people in the hotel. If CARLSBURG did nights away this was it. The lady at the desk could not have done enough and my children wanted to go home with Heaven who did the children s club . Thank Evans

definitely recommended
We recently stayed here with our two young kids.. I cannot understand how the previous reviewer could call it horrible! There was very little to fault with it from beginning to end. The rooms were spacious, comfortable and clean. The staff were most welcoming and friendly.Breakfast was lovely with lots of choice for everybody. We used the pool and were most impressed with the facilities. The pool itself was super and the changing room was fantastic-so spacious. The only thing that disappointed me was even though the breakfast bar was really clean the chairs could do with a good clean (around the wood ). Overall though I would have no hesitation recommending this hotel.

Lovely hotel
Stayed here recently, really nice hotel, lovely decor. Rooms were lovely but perhaps a little small, bathroom was nice also. We enjoyed wine and a one man band on a Friday night. Can't comment on the food as we did not eat there breakfast or dinner were not in our rate, we did head for the dining room for breakfast but were shocked at the price, we had it in the town instead for half the price. I have used the spa here a few times and can highly recommend it. Overall a lovely hotel.

Sheer bad location
My partner and I stayed here for 2 nights recently. We upgraded to a suite, which was a bad move. Nothing like any suite I have ever stayed in. Too many doors which were awkward to open. There was a 'bed' of sorts in the living room. It was raised on a wooden platform which was nothing short of dangerous, as every time we passed it, we hit off the wood, as it was so awkward. The TV was facing the living room door and couldn't be seen properly from the couch at all. The furniture was all odd pieces and frankly awful. The bedroom wasn't too bad, apart from the round pin sockets, which is something of a joke if you have a laptop, a hairdryer and a tongs etc. We asked about adapters at reception and we were told that they didn't have any as a coach load of tourists had 'nicked' them all and they were waiting for replacements. I doubted this story very much. We had to be given heaters in our rooms as it was so cold and the heating didn't work. All in all, for a 4 star hotel, it was dismal. Definitely little more than 2 star in some locations in the hotel. Reception staff could do with a course in customer service, as we stood waiting for one lady to finish sending her text message before she could attend to us, and another who was extremely snappy when asked about heating. Dinner in the restaurant was passable. Not 4 star standard. Long delays between bringing mains and sides and numerous requests for water made dining a bit of an chore.Needless to say, we won't be rushing back to Carlton Shearwater.
