Reviews and Ratings

Reviews from guests about their experience.

Harper

8.8/10

My stay at the hotel was a mixed bag. While the amenities like the spa and games room were fantastic, the room itself was disappointingly hot and in need of some serious attention. The dining experience was overall positive with great breakfast options, but my overall joy was slightly dampened by the noise from outside. However, the lively atmosphere and various entertainment options more than made up for some of the shortcomings.

I had a fantastic three-night stay at the hotel, with extremely helpful staff and plenty of activities to keep everyone entertained. The breakfast spread was outstanding, and the spa treatments were top-notch. However, the rooms could get a bit warm at night, and I would have loved to see a bit more variety in the evening entertainment. Overall, a great experience that I would happily repeat!

We had a lovely stay at the TLH Carlton, which had a lot to offer for families, including great entertainment options and a spacious pool area. The breakfast was especially delicious, providing plenty of choices each morning. However, the dining experience for evening meals was a bit hit-or-miss, and our room was on the warm side with limited air circulation, which could be uncomfortable at night.

I had a delightful experience at this spa hotel, perfect for a weekend getaway with friends or family. The quality of the spa treatments was superb, and the variety of food, especially at breakfast, was impressive. However, while the overall atmosphere was vibrant, I found the large pool a bit too crowded for relaxing moments, and some areas of the hotel felt outdated.

Rooms

Breakfast was excellent with a wide range of tasty options. The evening meal, however, didn't quite live up to expectations and would benefit from more variety and better execution.

Facilities

The facilities, particularly the spa and games room, were enjoyable and well-maintained. I did find the large pool a bit hectic, which detracted from the relaxing spa experience.
