When we arrived we tried to book into the spa but then got told it was full and would not be able to use the spa during our stay which was one of the main reasons we booked the hotel. We got told that we would be upgraded due to the above but this was already done for my partners 30th birthday and was not done due to not being able to use spa (there was a card in the room already - this is how we knew). Breakfast was ok but the selection was poor and due to going a little later there was a lot of items that was not available and had to wait for. The spa (which we managed to get into eventually) - it was a nice spa, very nice and clean! However the sauna was not hot and the steam room was not steamy. Overall - nice hotel, spacious room with a view but certain things let down the stay which is a shame as we were celebrating a 30th birthday and had high expectations from a high rated hotel.

Having stayed a few times previously we felt that some elements of our visit were good but not of the high standard we had experienced before. We felt that the decor was looking tired, especially the carpets and there was one corridor on the first floor which was without light, it came on automatically but only after we had passed through the area. We had been looking forward to breakfasting in the hotel as previously this had been a really lovely experience. The views are still lovely from the restaurant but the quality of produce was not as good as we recalled. It was still nice, but not Front of hotel staff are excellent ambassadors for the hotel, very friendly, helpful and polite.

Had to wait three hours from check in at noon for an ‘expedited’ room to be made available ! Then got a room, albeit a nice room, but certainly not overlooking the 17th fairway as booked ! I then had a self admitted non golfer telling me it WAS overlooking the 17th fairway……… staff at hotels like this need to remember they actually are working and don’t own the place ! Condescending attitudes are horrid in the service industry .Wonr be back ! Fairmont for the next trip
