“Relaxing spa break”

We recently had a lovely one night stay here during our visit to Devon. We stayed in a Refurbished Signature Room (number 9). The room had big bay windows and was beautifully decorated. The bed itself was large and very comfortable and the TV was of a great size with all your apps e.g Netflix, Disney+ etc. The feather duvet was lovely and thick. The pillows were also feather - one of us is not a fan so we called down to reception and asked if there was an alternative available - this wasn't a problem at all and the non-feather pillows were promptly bought up and left in our room. Our TV remote was missing but we called down to reception and again they promptly bought us a new one up. It wasn't that warm when we visited at the beginning of April, but it's worth mentioning that the air con is definitely the best air con I've ever experienced in a hotel! I can imagine how lovely this would be during the Summer months. The bathroom was equally as beautiful - lovely tiles, a great shower and a luxurious free standing bath that was lovely to take a soak in. Temple Spa toiletries were supplied too. Robes, slippers and grey towels had been left in our room for us to use in the spa. This was a nice touch as it meant we could just wander down in our robes without having to use the changing facilities (although these did look very nice with Dyson hairdryers and GHD straighteners.) The spa is a decent size with a long cool pool and a hydrotherapy pool with jets and seats etc. We enjoyed chilling on the loungers with a cocktail (ordered from the QR code on the table and then bought out to us). There was a sauna, steam room, ice room and a Himalayan salt room. It's worth noting that spa facilities are accessible from check in time (3pm) to check out time (11am). We didn't eat or drink in the hotel so cannot comment on that, but the dining and lounge areas looked very smart. All the staff members we encountered were friendly and helpful. Overall we would definitely recommend this hotel if you're looking for a chilled spa break away and we'd definitely return!

“Disappointed with poor room”

Lovely hotel with so much potential to be great however our visit was not the best due to the room itself. Myself and a friend visited for a relaxing getaway and lack of sleep was an issue. Room 20!!!!! The bedding on the bed was awful!!! The duvet filling was really lumpy with not any of the filling staying where it should be leaving large areas of the duvet with none at all. Despite shaking it on multiple occasions. The pillows were not of great quality and went very flat and uncomfortable. The runner on the bed had a white dirty stain on it which was quite disgusting that we noticed the minute we got in the room so unsure why cleaning staff didn’t sort this out. The bathroom was run down with the side panel on the bath split all the way along, and the shower temperature was terrible leading to it becoming hot then very very cold and back again. Decided against a shower on day 2 for this reason! There was toenails on the floor and a dirty spoon down the side of the bed. The radiator was full of dust and wouldn’t have taken much to get a feather duster between it. The room itself was extremely tiny and not like any of the “standard rooms” we saw online when booking so that was a disappointment also with a terrible view out the window with staff coming out the side door right next to us so was noisy and exposed. surely this space would better used for storage. What was supposed to be a relaxing getaway for my friend who had been going through a rough time of late, ended up not quite being the experience we were led to believe we would have. I will add Grace on the bar was the highlight of our stay and was wonderful and couldn’t do more to have made us feel happy during our lunch. The spa was lovely and had plenty to do, it was however quite noisy at times and not enough else sting so would have been nice to have a quieter relaxation room to go to.

“Shame about the room!!!”

Experience ruined by a very poor room. Awful view, too hot, bedding below sub standard: the pillows do not retain any shape or structure which caused neck pain, the duvet couldn’t even be called a duvet as the filling was just clumps here and there.

Experience ruined by a very poor room. Awful view, too hot, bedding below sub standard: the pillows do not retain any shape or structure which caused neck pain, the duvet couldn’t even be called a duvet as the filling was just clumps here and there. I do not even want to know what the mark was on the throw on the bed!!! A shame as the other aspects of the hotel were good, nice spa (though could do with a relaxation room away from the main pool/spa area). Food good and Grace who was serving at the bar provided exceptional service. I would suggest you pay attention to the reviews as I am not the only person to have commented on room 20 yet nothing appears to have been to make improvements.

Worth mentioning we have been this to this hotel so many times over the years & it truly is amazing! However this visit wasn’t the best & I think it needs to be said. We visit the hotel mainly to enjoy the spa because it is incredible but I don’t understand the idea of not allowing residents to use the spa before check in at 3pm. We checked in at 2.30pm & went to the spa, it was far too overcrowded!! More people just kept on coming in , so many couldn’t have a seat or use the hooks to hang anything, everybody was chatting loudly while hogging the jet pools (they were off & weren’t using them!) & stood in the middle of the swimming pool , you could barely move & it was very noisy. We ended up leaving & giving our seat to a pregnant woman that had nowhere to go & looked very overwhelmed. It is meant to be a spa to relax in but unfortunately yesterday was the opposite & should have been monitored. Surely it would make sense to allow residents to use the spa earlier when it was so quiet so that everyone isn’t bunched in together at the same time. The other issue was the bed, it’s the only bed I have had a problem with but I barely slept, it was very hard & gave me back ache. Apart from that though, amazing customer service from all staff , lovely food, lovely atmosphere in the restaurant, clean room & very beautiful room & we would still return, I just hope the spa can be managed better, it is the main feature of the hotel & everybody deserves to enjoy it in a safe & peaceful way.
