The Retreat Hotel

Very good but no television in room

Well maintained historic building in a beautiful town.

Strange to not have any staff present. But very pretty and nice room!

No staff which we knew Poor / dated quality bedroom furniture and fittings No t.v.

I pre-booked the hotel weeks before I traveled. The website said that the retreat house had restaurants, lounge, and bar amenities that I thought would be useful for my stay. The restaurant was not opened when we arrived. The bar//lounge had no staff. We asked the only employee we ever saw when the restaurant would be open and she said it’s only open for breakfast. We came downstairs in the morning at 8:30. The sign on the dining room said that breakfast was served at eight to ten. No one to be found anywhere a ghost town. Our room was on the third floor and there was absolutely no water pressure in the shower. There was no television and the Wi-Fi was intermittent. The windows weren’t insulated and it was cold, even though it had been a sunny day. My traveling companion turned the heater on, but she never did get warm. The listing on the website looks like a magnificent place and we were really looking forward to a wonderful comfortable stay but we never had any contact with service personnel or employees that made us feel welcome no greetings no goodbye very very odd.
