Second home at Palé
Impeccable service here at Palé. Staff can’t do enough to make sure your stay is comfortable, relaxing and that your every need is attended to. Luxury feel throughout and the food is top notch. Our second time here and certainly won’t be our last. A second home in the UK.

A gem of a hotel
Palé Hall is a lovely building, but it is the staff that made it into an exceptional stay. All very friendly and couldn’t do enough for us. It was all very special, without being snooty or pretentious. Highly recommended

Nice Building & Staff Extremely Overpriced
Hotel building and grounds are beautiful. The staff very nice cant do enough for you. However the food and drinks are way overpriced I had fish and chips the fish its not home battered like in a pub but like you would buy from Iceland and a few thick cut chips did it justify £45 certainly not.My husband had steak in peppercorn sauce with french fries and ended up with food poisoning (I assume it was the cream in the sauce) again £45. however the manageress removed my husbands meal from our bill which was very kind. our room was lovely but we could not get it warm despite having extra electric heaters put in there. would we stay there NO.
