Clean rooms. Great venuei. Area to walk dogs. Would be nice to sit out in summer (ours was a autumn visit). Grounds are nicely laid out with lit walks.
Hotel is going through some refurbishment currently especially in the main reception area.
Rooms were fine though.
Good facilities for informal meetings in the common areas.
Nice size room for a family of 4.
We enjoyed our stay and the surroundings.
I would say there needs to be better signage to the reception area for when arriving in the evening.
Breakfast choices limited & lacking quantity. Waited for more to be ready & it still wasn't enough..
Hotel well good in a great location!

This is a fantastic old palace as a lot of history and I quite like old buildings but the best thing about this hotel is the staff on reception very friendly very helpful.
