Alexandria Spa Hotels

"Wonderful stay. Beautiful location, clean and comfortable rooms, and welcoming staff. "

"I booked this hotel because of its pool, so I could swim whilst away from home. When I checked in I was informed the pool was closed. No advanced warning, no apology, no offer to use another hotel's pool. Room was okay, very basic, sachets of cheap instant coffee and a couple of teabags, no snacks or even water. Probably not the hotel's fault but the whole place was evacuated because of a fire alarm and we had to stand on the corner of a freezing cold windy street whilst the fire engines came and went one evening. Again, no apology. I came back from my conference exhausted, made my way to my hotel room to find the key didn't work, had to go back to the lobby and join an extensively long queue to have my key reactivated. Again, no apology, just a barrage of questions from a young woman who clearly thought I looked like some sort of criminal trying to break into my own hotel room, in my smart conference wear, and quizzed me relentlessly before she sneered at me and reactivated it without apology. If the staff learned to apologise for the errors that impact guests' stays, they'd land a lot easier. But this was a catalogue of errors dealt with by utterly miserable staff who haven't learned the word 'sorry' No idea what the breakfast was like as apparently it wasn't included."

"Booked this hotel for swimming pool and spa facilities. Not easy to access from main hotel."

"Our room was excellent. Lovely view. Very clean. A negative was that the sink was completely blocked in the shower room. The food wasn’t great. The fish and chips came with “wedges” We told the server. The restaurant charged an extra £2.00 for a small bit of cheese on my son’s burger (child’s menu) When our bill was brought to us the server stood over us until we paid instead of giving us time to look through over our bill.
