I appreciated the staff's attentiveness and how they anticipated needs. The hotel provided a pillow menu (what a treat!), allowing guests to customize their sleeping experience to their preference.
I found that the room was quite small. The mattress and pillows were uncomfortable (unfortunately) and caused some neck and back pain .

attentive staffdelicious foodwonderful experienceperfect wedding
the staff were really good. they worked tirelessly to ensure all guests had a wonderful experience, especially those staying at the hotel. the food was excellent both at the wedding and throughout our stay.
my only very small observation is that there was some minor building work, which slightly disrupted the otherwise peaceful atmosphere during the day.
