Summary: Our stay was fine…. However I definitely wouldn’t say it was a four star hotel. The shower was broken and the room was damp with excessive condensation on the inside of the window. Phoned and asked for shower to be looked at at 4pm and still not done by 9pm. We were assured the GM would contact us the following morning but nil contact. Apart from that the staff were nice at check in, and at breakfast. Children enjoyed the pool and the disco.

Summary: Enjoyed our stay, very clean and comfy room with nice shower. Friendly and efficient staff. Very good buffet breakfast with lots of choices. Only negative is expensive wine at the bar
Andrew Jun 17, 2025 08:10:27 PM
Summary: Good comfy stay with excellent facilities. Aspect restaurant as only dining option on site was a bit too posh for liking. Buildings look a bit old and tired but still in good condition. Am waiting for partial refund due to check out 2 days early so will see if get it. Walking directions from station were not provided and no directions on site so not easy to find hotel for initial check in.
Emma Jun 15, 2025 09:05:31 PM
Summary: Great location and good breakfast. However, hotel overall extremely dated and things look dirty. The pool area was extremely dirty looking and the Spa pool was not on so extremely disappointing. None of these would be major issues if it were not for the price you pay. One of the things we paid to go there for was a spa pool. The bed was comfy enough. There are only two usable sockets for plugs in room as others are the special lamp sockets so not great if have more than two things to be plugged in at once.

Summary: Good place for me & my Son for a night away together
Brian Apr 4, 2025 10:56:42 PM
Summary: Once we found where to go, check in was straight forward...room was fine..problem with shower screen, allowing water to escape onto floor...food at breakfast was okay, adequate though nothing special...quite busy...amenities at hotel are good..grandson loved the pool...would visit again...even with the rude awakening with the fire alarm on friday morning..!!

Summary: Friendly staff…clean room…excellent breakfast
paul Jan 5, 2025 01:05:36 AM
Summary: The shower intermittently went from normal to scalding without warning so my young children got scalded by it. The breakfast were not good, the food was overcooked and even when we came down early for breakfast one of the days(07:30) the food was already dried out. The buffet breakfasts at premier inn and travel lodge is way better than your breakfast , I would expect a lot better from you since you are charging a premium for staying there ( plus having to pay extra for the breakfast) I have been in the hospitality business for over 32 years, so I know there is no excuse for these things.

Summary: Came for the skiing over NY but not able to due to warm weather. Faculties at the hotel were great and it was clean and comfortable. It is within walking distance of all the restaurants and bars on the Main Street. Great location to travel to activities but a car is recommended. We would certainly recommend and will be returning in March.

Summary: Have stayed at the Macdonald resort often and have always been thoroughly happy with our rooms This time I was disappointed with the room we were booked into. Though it was clean and functional it was very old fashioned. and felt as if the area we were in was more like staff quarters.
