    Fantastic evening with the wife. The roof top terrace was unmissable. The hot jacuzzi in the winter can't be beaten. Great friendly staff, wonderful facilities, indoor pools and spa's were great also. Highly recommended for a lovely couple's retreat and chill tome together.

    This is a beautiful hotel, with lots of really interesting and unexpected features. Check out the Grade ll listed wallpaper in The Ballroom and the amazing mirror in The Library, which is the mirror inspiring Lewis Carroll’s ‘Alice Through the Looking Glass.’ The new Spa Terrace is a fantastic feature and is big enough to accommodate the many groups of people that used it - the bar service was particularly welcome here! The service has been efficient warm and welcoming, the food of an excellent standard (particularly the breakfast) and the facilities of a great standard. We come here every year for a well-earned break and look forward to coming again next year!

    I have just had a fantastic spa day here with a massage. Firstly I would like to mention the reception staff. They were an absolute pleasure. Full of smiles attentive and helpful. Ellie on reception was extremely welcoming and made my day start with a big smile on my face. Good staff are hard to find. Great staff are near impossible. Reception staff are fantastic at this hotel. As were the catering staff. Every one was really helpful and friendly. What a beautiful place to visit. Food was good facilities great. Over all I enjoyed every part of my day here and will definitely be returning soon.

    Myself and a group of friends visited Hoar Cross Hall this weekend for an overnight / spa stay. The weekend from start to finish was absolutely brilliant and we all had a great time. Top of things to mention is the service. It was excellent. As overnight guests we dined in the ballroom and our waiter, Wilson, was fantastic. We are really grateful to him for making our evening special. Thank you Wilson! At breakfast, the food was plentiful and very fresh. I asked for a poached egg and despite how busy they were, it was brought to the table (it was perfect!) The spa itself has been elevated significantly by the roof top terrace. Wow! There’s no words for this beautiful space. We even tried the cold tubs!!!! The hotel itself has some really lovely spaces and the rooms are nice. All in all, I’m very impressed and will most definitely be back.

    Facilities were good. Had a booking at Hugo’s - starter was prompt however had to wait a following 50 minutes for mains. People who had came in after us were being served before us. Lovely staff however just badly organised. Went had been given the time 12:15 for the meal and was rushing our food due to the long wait time for mains as we would’ve missed our treatment at 2:15. Went to get back changed, left my robe unattended for 30 seconds and it was taken by the cleaning lady. When I went to reception to get a new robe they told me there were none left leaving me to walk with a towel for the rest of the day. Very unsympathetic. Overall for the money I’ve paid I’m not satisfied.
