The room was clean beds super comfy. The pressure in the shower wasn't amazing but I find it hard to find any hotel with good water pressure. The heated pool and spa were great he kids loved it. The breakfast wasn't the best so we only ate down there once but that is also due to fussy kids. Rooms do get a little hot but we just turned the air con on all night. Staff were fantastic though. Would book and stay there again.

We stayed for 2 days in a superior room with a queen bed. The Copthorne hotel is quiet, comfortable, and easy to access, with stunning views out of the window. Especially, the duvet is very soft and smooth. It's good for deep sleep. Thanks.

Average condition very comfy bed

The rooms were clean and the bed was extremely comfy for lovers of a soft bed but the hotel was a lot more run down than I expected. The carpets were worn and the pool area was in a sorry state. The pool wasn’t that warm and the two hot tubs were tiny.

We had an overall enjoyable stay at the hotel. The room was clean and well-kept, which we really appreciated. That said, a few small upgrades could significantly improve the guest experience. For example, the room still uses a traditional key instead of a key card, which feels a bit outdated for a hotel. Also, while the bathroom was tidy, the shower head was rusty, which gave a less-than-ideal first impression. These are minor details, but updating them would help elevate the overall quality of the stay.
