My stay at Bonnington Hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The cleanliness of the rooms was impressive, and the pool area was well-maintained and enjoyable, especially for my preschooler.

I had a mixed experience at the Bonnington Hotel. On one hand, the food was delicious - especially in McGettigan's - and the staff were friendly and attentive. However, I faced several issues during my stay, including an uncomfortable bed and a shower that didn't function well. Overall, while there were some positives, the negatives significantly impacted my stay. 😕

My room was clean but uncomfortable. I booked an 'upgrade', only to find it was two single beds pushed together, which felt quite hard. The bathroom had some maintenance issues, and the air conditioning didn't work, leaving the room uncomfortably warm. Overall, the room was dated and not up to a good standard.

Dining at McGettigan's was a delight - the food was plentiful and tasty. However, my husband's experience was disappointing when he found a bug in his burger at the Croft. While the staff handled it professionally, it definitely left a bad impression.

The leisure facilities, especially the pool, were another positive aspect of my stay. However, I had to buy bathing caps to access the pool, which felt like an unnecessary added expense.
