Philipburn Hotel, BW Signature Collection

We stayed for three nights in September on dinner, bed and breakfast terms. This was our first experience of a hotel operating under the coronavirus protocols and I thought the hotel was doing a very good job. Everywhere was exceptionally clean, there were several hand sanitisers available and the law on mask wearing was being observed by all the guests and staff. Though it seemed strange that there was so little human interaction, almost none except in the restaurant and bar. And also unusual that our room was never serviced during our stay. We stayed in a garden room which was on two levels. It had a very large bathroom on the upper level and a good sized, well equipped and comfortable room on the lower level. However describing it as a ‘garden room’ was very misleading as the hotel’s lovely gardens were not even visible from the room; instead we had a narrow patio looking onto the wall of a fairly newly built function room. This was a disappointment to us. All meals were a la carte with no breakfast buffet. Breakfasts were very good but we did find the main dinner courses a little disappointing. The curry was clearly from a catering pack and not at all spicy and the chips were undercooked. Otherwise very good. Overall we had a pleasant stay. less

We first visited this hotel in May 2015 and promised ourselves a return visit. We were so happy to see that the first class standard remains so. After a misunderstanding regarding our room (my fault) is was smoothly and efficiently rectified. Our room was completely spotless and very comfortable with a lovely view over the rear garden which is also meticulously looked after. Furnishings, linen, towels were lovely. We had two evening meals which were delicious and the breakfasts equally so. The restaurant is beautifully decorated and modern but blends superbly with the rest of the hotel. COVID precautions were very well explained and managed. Well done to the whole team and keep up the good work. A special mention to the lady who served our breakfast the first morning. Every hotel should have a waitress like her, cheery, friendly and efficient!! less
