点评:Having had a spectacular stay at South Lodge last year we wanted to try another in the Exclusive Group. The one redeeming aspect was a spectacular meal in the Latymer and service by Bradley. Otherwise the food was mediocre and the breakfast poor. Definitely not cooked fresh despite it being a la carte, it had clearly been sitting in chafing dishes in the kitchen. This is a conference hotel so do not go as a romantic get away. First impressions were poor, the large vases of flowers in reception area were dead and the grand piano so dusty someone had drawn their fingers to make two lines through it. The room and bathroom though big are in need of any date. There is no facility to plug your phone by your bed without unplugging something and the bathroom decor is circa 1980s with bows on rope border bathroom tiles! This hotel is comparative in pricing to South lodge but is the definite poor relation. This was an expensive two days, which I am happy to pay out if the experience matches. This certainly did not.
翻译:去年在South Lodge酒店度过了一段美好的时光,这次我们想尝试Exclusive Group的另一家酒店。唯一值得庆幸的是Latymer餐厅的餐点和Bradley的服务。除此之外,食物很平庸,早餐也很差。虽然是点菜,但绝对不是新鲜烹制的,显然是放在厨房的火锅里煮的。这是一家会议酒店,所以不适合作为浪漫之旅。第一印象很差,接待区的大花瓶里的花都枯死了,三角钢琴上积满了灰尘,像是有人用手指在上面画了两道线。房间和浴室虽然很大,但需要一些时间。没有设施可以在不拔掉电源的情况下将手机放在床边充电,浴室的装饰大约是20世纪80年代的风格,浴室瓷砖边缘的绳子上系着蝴蝶结!这家酒店的价格与South Lodge酒店差不多,但绝对是后者的劣势。这两天的住宿花费不菲,如果体验能达到预期,我很乐意为此支付这笔费用。但这家酒店显然不符合预期。
