Very disappointed. Not the hotel it used to be.

Most of staff were indifferent at best and miserable at worst. Had to chase tidying up and preparation of room every day. Public area toilets were in a poor state. Annoyed that a separate payment was required to use the pool in what is supposed to be a spa hotel. Service was slow. The hotel lacked any form of front of house leadership or motivation or support. Nothing made us feel like we would like to come to Cottons again

Family birthday

The staff were very helpful on arrival by holding the door open as some of our party had mobility issues. Very welcoming. Busy pub but staff very efficient without rushing guests to choose food or drink. Excellent food. Good sized portions. Had salmon and prawn cocktail. Duck chorizo salad and goats cheese parcel. Mains were beef and mushrooms pot pie and thai salmon salad. Very tasty.

Not a good experience

First and last visit, Friday 5pm. Mt husband ordered fish and chips, the fish was small to say the least! I ordered gammon pineapple and egg. The egg was a rubber blob, chips dry and served with salad. We didn't stay for desert. We were asked if we enjoyed our meal when we went to pay! Our negative reply was "oh dear" ( with a smile) we weren't offered a stopper for our half bottle of wine that we decided to take home. We will not be returning.

Lovely food.

Myself and my partner went for a meal after work. I've got to say the steak was perfect. I always order medium rare and in a lot of restaurants it can be hit and miss. But it was perfect. My partners pie was delicious. Loved the Christmas decorations and ambience. Even though the manageress was on her own there was no fault in service. We will be back very soon.

This spa is not worth 1 star!

After being told my party of 7 could turn up Sunday and use their pay as you gym spa pass and then have afternoon tea without needing payment. So we were all set rang today to book a treatment to now be told we are unable to go as they didn’t book it in. I managed to get a call back from the so called manager who more or less told me we were not told that and he could not accommodate us so bang goes my birthday treat as now too late to book anywhere else.

Quite uncomfortable due to the freezing cold room

The room was freezing cold. We couldn't get the temperature above 15oC and the air conditioning blew cold air all night. The shower room was freezing , even with the heated towel rail on. The breakfast wasn't very hot. The receptionist took a note of the problems we had encountered but didn't really offer any apology.

Great village pub.

I’d heard very good things about the new management.The service was friendly, the food was absolutely brilliant. Good wholesome pub food. I had the steak pie which was lovely, with a lovely rich gravy. All plates cleared. We will definitely return, I think if this is the standard, the other pubs in the area should be worried. Thanks again. We will definitely return.

Overpriced, badly managed and bad service

The fact that its a spa hotel yet we couldn't use the Spa. Priority was given to locals and ppl who booked outside of booking.com. Feel cheated out of that given its a spa hotel and that's why we paid the overpriced rate yo go there. Also the service was bad and the food was bad. Took 40 minutes for breakfast to arrive and when it did it was presented by a young gentlemen who was covered in what patches. Poor guy, but not an appetising sight.

A disappointing night away from home.

When I arrived the reception staff were abrupt and unwelcoming. The room was adequate although the pillows were awful. For a room costing over £200 I would say it was barely worth a quarter of that. I will not be returning. Oh and the advertised bath products were tiny. Don’t try to order a la carte at breakfast as you can’t. What you can do is order the fixed options without various of the things!!!!

Awful night's sleep at the Cottons Hotel.

The noise in bedroom 300 from the heating or plumbing sounded like a jet taking of at times. woke me in the night several times.

Aztetec hotel's spa is disgusting, it's cold

Both the pool and the saunas are cold and full of children going in and out of the saunas and leaving the door open, the jacuzzi is closed but they were letting the children in and out of it, as well as splashing water in the pool and yelling, and understand me, it's a spa, not a public pool.

Thats our first last time we will come here.

We visited as a family and we were not impressed. The layout is not accommodating nor warm, the food was not great. I personally ordered the Haloumi starter which lacked flavour and texture and for mains I ordered the chicken and ham pie which tasted odd and had perfectly squared chicken pieces in a white sauce with chunky pieces of bacon; similar to that you get a KG of for a few quid along with a mass produced pastry lid.
