Just the overall experience was first class even in mddle of building work. Plus staff performance second to none brilliant!
Would recommend a stay to King Charles !!
A wonderful hotel, super friendly and happy to help with everything. Also very accommodating of our 6 month old baby, giving us a bigger room for the cot and also making a baby breakfast. The rooms are very comfortable.
Our stay at Marcliffe was wonderful and felt truly luxurious. The staff went to every length to make sure we were comfortable. While there were small mix-ups with our breakfasts, the inconvenience was quickly overshadowed by the service of having the meal delivered to our room and the delicious cooked meals. It was so special staying here, and we would highly recommend it to our friends and family.
Great stay, really comfy bed which helps a lot. Super friendly and smiley service. Couldnt really fault anything except there could be plug sockets next to the bed.
