Reviews and Ratings

Feedback about The Spa Hotel from previous guests about their experience.
Review summary
Based on recent reviews
Powered by AI
Guests consistently praise the spacious and beautifully decorated rooms, with some even enjoying upgrades featuring freestanding slipper baths and large showers; the comfortable mattresses and effective air conditioning also get a special mention. The Spa Hotel's location offers both tranquility, being slightly outside the city center, and convenience, with easy access to attractions like The Pantiles. The spa area, including the pool and gym with equipment like treadmills, is generally appreciated, though a few guests have noted that the changing rooms could benefit from more frequent cleaning. The orangery breakfast is frequently described as lovely, with excellent options and attention to food intolerances, whilst the grounds are also highlighted as a pleasant feature.

adequate stay at the hotel

clean roomreplaced furnitureearly closureslow service
the room was clean. the furniture had clearly been replaced recently. i had an ironing board and iron available. a hairdryer was also present.
a night porter was said to be able to serve us yet he could not unless we took drinks to our room. we chose to go to bed instead. breakfast service was slow. tables were not cleared quickly.

The orangery breakfast was lovely. the staff helped me find gluten-free options. the grounds are fine. i liked all the varied rooms. They were very clean. there was convenient parking spaces.
the hot water tap in the sink was broken. this meant i had to use only cold water. it wasn't ideal, but i managed.
