The only complaint that it was a little too warm in the room and no matter what I set the AC on, it felt that it was too hot. Given that we stayed at the property in the middle of October, I was hoping that the room would feel cooler. But it was a minor inconvenience. Otherwise - super friendly staff, great restaurant and bar on premises and just great impression overall. ##### Julie Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2025 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [The Wick, Hudson, A Tribute Portfolio Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hudson-Hotels-The-Wick.h19742697.Hotel-Information) > > [Apartments Honiton](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Honiton-Apartments.d177947-aaApartments.Travel-Guide-Accommodation) > > [Prince Park Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Benidorm-Hotels-Hotel-Prince-Park.h1468254.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels with Indoor Pools in Valencia](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Valencia-Hotels-Hotels-With-Indoor-Pools.0-0-d3713-tHotelswithIndoorPools.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Segara Lombok](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Lombok-Hotels-Segara-Lombok-Lodge.h39085036.Hotel-Information) > > [High Beckside - Traditional Lakeland Cottage near Ullswater.
