I loved the fact it had insite facilities such as tbe resturant and bar. Also lovely heated pools. A nice holiday destination for familes with playground courys and pools. Some buildings are looking a little tired and shabby from the outside. Maybe rooms need a little freshening up.

Clean room, nice location near the hot pools. As others have mentioned, the rooms are pretty dated. Expensive for its age. Dining options were also very expensive. Nice pool area and grounds.

The room and staff were lovely, a great location and room. Restaurant very nice with great food and service. Kids menu not as exciting as in past visits. Pool was actually a bit hot for the kids to swim in, more like a spa pool. No impressed with wifi at all, a room that sleeps 4 only allowed 3 logins, and each one needed own email address which the young kids didn't have.
