The Hotel is a wonderfully panoramic location overlooking the lake. It’s a great location in a grand historic building. I am not a fan that charges for parking. Just add it into the rate! You can only check in at 4pm (although we managed at 3.30pm). I have traveled all this planet and this is the latest l have experienced in 35 years. I stayed in riverside room with balcony overlooking lake. Had wonderful relaxing stay in a quiet end rom. Room was very good. However, now some areas for improvement. The television was somewhat dated with no ability to use Netflix, or cast to. So we enjoyed only free to air television on small 20 inch (how quaint) . There was a distinct lack of plugs in room with none by beds so we could not charge phones as we went to sleep. For this price install some USB chargers. Breakfast was excellent in an idyllic position overlooking the lake.

Hotel was old fashioned which would be fine, however the room phone socket was broken, as was the bathroom door, which scraped the tiles and wouldnt close, the room service food took over an hour to arrive and then had missing items, which when offered replacements never arrived. The location is great but overall the hotel needs a major refurbishment and we wouldnt stay there again. Many other options that we would try first.

Excellent hotel - good location, services, pool, patio and food. Rooms were large and accommodating. It may be tilted towards the lake so you may want to position the bed accordingly.
