    Disappointing
    Disappointing
    I liked how the theme of the room and the hotel but it didn't follow through on the theme, I don't imagine gods zapping lightening but there should be an option ti make the room a bit lighter as settling on a specific theme defeats the purpose of getting customers if you only attract who you want to. The theme was really nice
    The lighting and the lack of windows restricting accessibility by blocked the room off giving it the illusion of being really small which it was. Not sure about the more deluxe room but this is what I know from my stay, the covers were too heavy and the shower water would run through to the main floor outside the bathroom. Would not say worth the money, sold reputation higher than objectively valued. Not wanting to be mean but felt sold short on the price relatively to experience inbalanced ratio.

    Superb
    Great experience to stay here.
    Staff at the HOG are really lovely and approachable. Room was cosy and interestingly decorated. We enjoyed the buttons for fizz & cookies that were included on our locked up package. This place is an experience in itself.
    Place is a bit dark - but thats how it is intended to be. Wasnt overly clear what was included in the room - E.g. the minibar and snacks.. however we didnt ask either.

    Lovely hotel, better mattress needed...
    We really liked the dcor of the room, liked the location and enjoyed the breakfast hamper.
    Unfortunately the bed wasn't very comfortable at all. The mattress was way too hard.

    Fun, cosy visit. Quirky hotel, great extras.
    Quirky decoration, great shower, comfy bed, unexpected extras (Prosecco on arrival, 10 bar tab). Welcome was very warm and enthusiastic. Property was lovely, the cabin rooms are small but we knew this, and it didnt matter because it made it even cosier. Most of the staff were very friendly.

    It were different quirky and we enjoyed our stay
    It was brought to our room on the time we booked in a whicker hamper baguettes orange juice water in a flask for tea flask of coffee, we laid on the bed to eat. it were different but we knew what to expect when we booked,
    We had to communicate through wassap and one member of staff said we have no wifi which manager was not happy we were told this, however it were all sorted out by the helpful staff and us old school soon got the hang of it. lighting everywhere were dark and dim no wardrobes to hang clothes, but as said before we knew this after reading reviews.

    Wonderful weekend
    The breakfast was delicious and the location was fab!
    The cabin bed, although it was comfortable, the person nearest to the window (me) struggled to get out of bed without waking husband

    No complaints but very costly for what you get
    The staff couldnt do enough for you
    Although there is no complaints, unfortunately the hotel isn't worth the money I paid. Plus the images that was showed on the room on booking.com wasn't the room we received it was totally different. On the booking room images there was a copper bath.

    Definitely a one off kind of visit. Just not worth the money.
    Cant fault the staff, every one of them were extremely helpful and always willing to help. The most attentive and friendly staff Ive encountered, to be honest.
    I felt the rooms were very small, with nowhere to relax and have a drink while we were getting ready. We were just kinda jammed in with only one small chair between us. The bathroom was just a wet room. It looked nice and was fairly comfortable but at 560 for one night, you expect a higher standard. The bar is nice and we enjoyed a few drinks there but we didnt realise we would be asked to give up our table after only two hours which was a little annoying. The rooms kind of put me in mind of a place you would get a room last minute if youre lucky enough to pull while on a night out and need a bed. I get the idea of it supposedly being sexy and decadent but its really just a very small room with a red light on the bed.
