We live in Doncaster and have only visited this hotel for daytime events. As it was our 2nd wedding anniversary we decided to treat ourselves to a stay in the Sanctuary Spa Suite......Wow! What a treat!!
Now, the spa rooms are pretty expensive, but it really was like living in luxury for the evening. We paid for late check out to get more time in the room and also had breakfast in the room. I did think that the £10 charge for each cooked breakfast in the room was extortionate as we had already paid for breakfast, so we went for the continental option, which was lovely and actually made a nice change.
We spent quite a while trying to choose our spa suite before booking, and I feel that this one is a great balance of having a lovely grand, more traditional room, with a modern and well designed bathroom. The only questionable design in the bedroom was the mirror and a piece of art on the wall that were very garish and out of place in the traditional style of the room. The bathroom was brilliant, containing a very spacious Jacuzzi bath which was surrounded with mood lighting, a refreshing large shower and a lovely sauna which was just right for 2 people.
In general, the staff were friendly and efficient, the Garden restaurant was amazing, and I certainly wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again. less
