Excellent room very clean and modern with comfortable bed. Walk in shower very good and easy to operate. Breakfast was as expected for busy dining room . Only downside was the barrage of emails about checking in on line and reserving a table in the restaurant. System may work fine if booking one room but is complicated if you book room for another person as well . This might be a booking agent problem or the hotels .

Very nice, friendly staff. The whole hotel looks newly decorated. We had three rooms, two of which had brand new furnishings and bathrooms. The third room looked like it was in the process of renovation and was awaiting new furniture but the old stuff was fine. Staff were excellent. Very polite and helpful. Food was very good and the restaurant was well run. Next time we visit the area we will be looking to book this hotel again.

First impressions of reception was bright with nice furniture. Room we were given was complete opposite.Dark furniture in a dark room.Daylight was minimal due to trees and walls from our bathroom and one next door blocking out light. Lights in the room gave minimal glow meaning we were glad we only had to suffer 1 night in room 8.

This hotel was perfect for us, but our stay was marred by the attitude of the restaurant manager on our last night. She was very curt with us when there had been a problem with the booking for our meal- which was an error on the part of the hotel. Every other staff member we spoke to was lovely but on our last night, her manner was very abrupt & less than helpful. Very disappointing, especially as we had stayed for 4 nights.

Friendly and polite staff from reception to bar/restaurant to housekeeping. Beautiful decor giving all public areas a sense of comfortable style and an upmarket but ´ at home ´ feeling. Rooms were spacious enough and bathrooms clean and well maintained. The only tiny niggle was the dinner menu which wasn’t hugely inspiring (mainly in the starter area) and also the pie which, although filling was absolutely delicious, was not encased in pastry but also the pastry topper was bit stodgy and not flaky puff pastry. As I say a tiny thing but when coming up North from London you look forward to an excellent pie. The other mains were excellent and all were piping hot. Breakfast was also fine, nicely cooked full breakfast and lots of choice for cereals, yogurt and toast, although didn’t see any croissants, as was on the menu. We visited as a large family group, overall a wonderful stay and all have said we would stay here again. Thanks Crooklands.
