This is a really lovely, comfortable hotel in great location. Beautifil decor, great views. Staff are very attentive and welcoming. Greeted with a welcome drink and an upgraded room with a hot tub. Nice spa very relaxing. Food in the mizumi restaurant was delicious with lovely surroundings and great service. We would definately return, a fabulous experience.

This is the third time we have stayed at the Lakes Hotel and Spa, on this occasion it was our first year anniversary and they really made a big deal of it. We went to the cocktail terrace, which had some really delicious cocktails (personally would recommend the lake’s tiramisu), and then we had a relaxing couple of hours in the stunning spa, which has great facilities. Finally, the private hot tub on the balcony makes the trip special, and is one of the main reasons we have gone back.

Great hotel. Staff all lovely. Great cocktail Bar overlooking the lake which also does food. On site restaurant mizumi is excellent. Great atmosphere. It was nice to have an evening where we didn’t need to leave the hotel. The only points for improvement would be the bathroom could do with modernising and having a walk in shower and the superior room we had could have done with a set of drawers as we felt this was lacking. That being said we would definitely book again. We had a great visit
