The Spencer Hotel

I was there for a meeting/conference, and the rooms were more than adequate. The host for the first day, Junior, was also very attentive, friendly, and helpful. The health centre was also very well equipped, with an excellent steam room and sauna. The pool is small, but it was quiet.

This hotel has potential, but in the end was let down in execution. The main issue i had was that there was work being carried out within the hotel. This meant that walls near my room and around the hotel were plain plasterboard. This is itself is not that bad, but the fact there were workers during the day outside the room using tools could have been quite disruptive. Also, this plastering/plasterboard was being carried out in a number of areas of the hotel, so at times it felt like you were in the middle of work being carried out. I don't mind - as this needs to be done - but perhaps at leats offer something for the slight inconvenience (breakfast, cheaper rooms, or at least apologise for the work). Nothing was even mentioned. I would have been annoyed if i had been woken by a drill/work tool outside my room.

Liked the location Staff where extremely helpful Room was very comfortable

Felt the menu in Restaurant was very limited Just enjoyed our stay very much due to pleasant surrounding and genuinely lovely staff
