    Review: A charming experience at Jackson's, with a spacious and immaculate room. The lively atmosphere matched well with friendly staff who gave us a good entrance to the function room. the breakfast offerings need attention, as some items appeared a bit dry and lacking in variety. , rating: 8, date of stay: 2024-02-15}

    Newly remodelled rooms with nice opening windows for fresh air, a glass of bubbly, as example, very clean pool. Stunning, unbeatable location right in the centre of town. Also - just next door to the restaurant, the river and all town amenities.

    delicious breakfast
    too soft bed

    We had a grand time! The staff were fabulously friendly, and the breakfast was canny lush, with loads of options. Only downside was the bed—bit too squishy for my liking. Would definitely recommend!

    spacious room
    indoor pool
    relaxing sauna
    limited menu

    I had a fantastic experience here. the early check-in was a lifesaver, and the spacious room was spotlessly clean. The leisure centre was a blast, with a lovely indoor pool and a relaxing sauna perfect for unwinding after a long day. The only downside was the slightly limited menu at dinner, but everything tasted great, so I can't complain too much!

    Nice pool, cozy vibes

    The kids loved the pool area, super fun for them. Our room was spacious and comfy, but had a bit of an old vibe. The bar had a nice selection, and we enjoyed some cocktails. Just wish the drinks weren't so pricey! It was a decent spot to relax.

    The hotel's beautiful gardens and cozy lounge area seemed like a picturesque fairy tale, making me feel welcomed like a cherished guest in a charming castle.

    Long walks to certain floors could be improved.

    spacious room
    delicious dinner
    excellent breakfast
    unstable connection
    inaccessible wifi

    During this quiet weekend, the room was spacious and spotlessly clean, and i enjoyed the delicious three-course dinner with a fine view of the river. The breakfast spread was excellent too, with various options catering to dietary needs, which really exceeded my expectations.

    the wifi connection was unstable.

    The leisure facilities were pretty decent, with a pool and a gym that certainly came in handy after a long day of traversing the galaxy. The restaurant had some solid options, and the spicy burger I had was particularly noteworthy. It packed a punch that left me satisfied.

    While the food was generally good, I found the menu somewhat limited, especially at dinner. The noise levels could be quite disruptive, too. I could hear every word spoken from the room above me. The room itself felt a bit dated and didn't match the four-star expectations I had. To top it off, there was a persistent noise coming from an outside vent that kept me tossing and turning all night.
