Has the ability to be a great place but is looking very tired and run down, although was clean and staff friendly and helpful. The availability of hot snacks would have been good!

Check in was atrocious. Only two staff members on for two large booking parties. We waited 40 minutes. The room was more suitable for a single bed. The bathroom wasn't clean, I have photo's, the bathroom window had no frosting or curtain on it, people across the street could see in especially when the light was on so we left it off. Three other people tried to get into the room whilst we were trying to sleep which was impossible due to how uncomfortable the bed was. There was no remote control for the TV so we didn't use that. The duvet cover was inside out. The bathroom door didn't close properly as it was damaged. The curtain in the room wouldn't open properly once it had been closed. There was no hot water in the bathroom, my husband had to shower in cold water, I didn't use it but boiled the kettle for a wash instead. Most of the onsite vending machines were out of order. The mini break was booked for my husbands birthday. I'm afraid to say that we will not be returning to Norbreck Castle. Having been twice before he specifically requested it. I'm sorely disappointed with our stay this time.

Pool out of use.
One of main reasons we booked this hotel was for the pool but unfortunately it was not in use and had not been for a few days prior. They should have specified this on their website.

Not ideal for everyone
No WiFi in room, unless you pay for premium. I wasn't aware of the £3 a night parking, until I'd got to check in. And no information was available and I wasn't made aware, until I asked in the restaurant, that you needed to pre pay for evening meal, but sadly by then they where all sold up. I was looking forward to a swim, and time in the sauna, but it was all closed up. Room was clean, with fresh linen, and towels, working hairdryer and kettle was also in the room. But the extractor fan in the bathroom didn't work, and the water took over 10 minutes to get warm. Also there was a gale force wind, coming from the window. Evening entertainment not my cup of tea, and the band was boring, and they didn't even try to get people to feel included. Long queue for the bar, and at check in too. And it's quite a long walk to any other entertainment or food places.

We had a nice time at the Norbreck Castle hotel the staff were friendly and helpful, the food was very good and plentiful ,also our bedroom was clean with nice white sheets and clean white towels. I think they could make the frontage of the hotel much better by having freshly painted doors with maybe some nice greenery outside and giving the windows a good clean.

Windows inside the room were filthy and there was a vape left from previous guest. Property so old, floorboards creaking everywhere. Difficult to sleep with guests coming back late and floorboards in bad way. Poured hot water into cup for tea in buffet lounge and had floating black bits in it. Remote control filthy in room.

Coincided with pool competition stood for an hour and a half just to check in. Perhaps a pool only check in separate from regular guests. Room, more than tired. Nothing like pictures. Smokers at the front doors should be moved away from hotel
