Mount Wolseley Hotel, Golf and Spa Resort
10/10 Excellent
"We checked in and discovered our room didn’t have a bath, we were swapped to a room with one immediately, not a problem to the staff. The room was clean, spacious and the bathroom was also spotless. Bath and shower were separate, water pressure was fab and hot water always available no matter what time of day you were using it. Mini fridge, kettle, coffee machine with pods, hair dryer, iron and ironing board all provided. Breakfast selection was plentiful and hot food was replenished regularly. Many options to choose from for cereal, continental, hot food and pastries. There was even fresh honey on the comb, what a treat! We had breakfast 3 mornings and never had the same thing twice. We ate in both Frederick’s and Aaron lounge, amazing food available from both. The cocktails were also very good, great taste and not too heavy with the alcohol, you could taste all the elements of each. Lastly, the staff were all very attentive, friendly and made you feel at home. Would highly recommend a stay here either as a couple or family."

8/10 Good
"Beautiful location, friendly staff and nice restaurant with variety of food options. But rooms are outdated. We stayed at newer building where the Smokehouse is, so can't say anything about main building and how well it maintained."
