    room unprepared

    The treatment at check-in was disappointing after a long journey, and the room setup lacked basic amenities. Finding someone's luggage in our assigned room was particularly frustrating.

    average food

    The staff were heaps friendly, but the noisy air vent made for a restless sleep. The food was just average, really could do with some improvement.

    lake-facing view

    Consider booking a lake-facing room for a better view and natural light, especially if you're sensitive to claustrophobia.

    delightful buffet
    outdated room

    The breakfast buffet was an absolute delight, featuring a wide array of

    Choices that truly set the day right. The staff were exceptionally friendly and provided great service. the room seemed a bit outdated and could greatly benefit from some maintenance and refreshing.

    varied breakfast
    garden view
    dated decor

    great location with excellent breakfast

    The breakfast exceeded my expectations with a wide variety of delicious options. the staff quickly prepared our room after our early arrival, which was appreciated after a long journey. The picturesque garden view from our room added a lovely touch to our stay.

    The room decor felt slightly dated.

    clean spacious room
    friendly staff

    staying at lord charles was a great experience! the location is ideal with options to dine outside in the courtyard or next to the pool. my deluxe double room was spacious and clean. the staff were super friendly and always ready to help, which really made my stay special.

    would recommend a bit of maintenance, as some areas felt slightly worn down.
