The pool in the spa was freezing cold. It says a lot when there's more people out of the pool than in the pool. The staff on reception where extremely rude. She asked me to pay even though I had already paid, she booked 1 person in for breakfast when they where two of us staying in a doubke room. Not very approachable or friendly seen as though she is front of house. I waited 10 minutes at the bar to get a drink as there was no one serving so I had to go and find someone. Not very good if you ask me.

Average
Warm welcome from the reception team, great first impression. Bedroom was a bit tired, curtains hanging off the rails and some damp stain and wallpaper coming away in the corners, a bulb out on arrival in the room. Obviously housekeeping manager not checking rooms after they have been serviced. Great bar, restaurant and spa staff. coming down for breakfast at the later time of 9.30am, appeared to be a lack of replenishment of the breakfast area, no pastries, chopped fruit bowl empty, orange juice ran out.

Great Hotel
Great customer service delivery from reception and bar staff. Room was to a high standard. Disappointed with the food from the bar. I ordered a burger which on the menu included a tomato salad. When it came out no salad but shavings of cucumber, so asked for another one. But made to feel I was in the wrong for pointing this out, when really it was the chefs issue poor checks and balances before food left the kitchen.

Spa was not cleaned from one day to the next. Changing rooms and showers were dirty. Refills of shampoo and shower gel just left on floor and empty bottles were left on wall. Breakfast was good. Hotel was tired but clean.

Rowton Hall is set in a quiet area within some lovely grounds. The rooms are spacious but very hot and uncomfortable due to the temperature. Little ventilation due to the windows only being able to open slightly. There was no airconditioning only a fan. The hot water in the bathroom was boiling hot and care had to be taken when using it. My kettle didnt work in my room which I didnt discover until the morning. The veiw from my window was awful. The hotel needs some updating especially in the corridors leading to the rooms. I was looking forward to my stay but overall I was dissapointed with my room.

Nice stay but disappointing breakfast.
Stay was nice and room very nice, but breakfast options la were limited without paying a £5 supplement in things like avocado on toast or a full English. When the too was already close to £200 this seems unreasonable.

Setting is lovely, facilities are great and staff were excellent, however room was a let down. Windows looked on to a roof with extractor fans, which were very noisy. Old building, so no air on. Room was super stuffy, so much so it was really difficult to sleep. A fan was provided but this made an awful noise, which made it even more difficult to sleep.

Amazing food and good service. I was disappointed the bar did not have a cocktail menu though and only serves what is on the tap. The room was beautiful although the door and lock could use a refurbish. Also soundproofing to the hallway was bad as many times people knocking or entering doors opposite, or along the hall to me, sounding like it was coming right from my door.

Been twice - that's enough.
We had used this hotel once before many years ago and found it a really good venue to meet up with family. Can't comment on the spa as its of no interest to us, but we did feel that the hotel is looking a bit tired. Also, our bedroom TV was not working and the manager in charge said there was nothing they could do about it until the next week. Great customer service ! Dinner menu was smaller that we had remembered and staff seemed to have an average age of about 16. Not sure how they would have coped had we asked questions about the wine list. I'm guessing that their main focus is where the money is - Spa weekends, hen parties, weddings etc. Not hugely disappointing but probably won't go back.

Lovely grounds and lovely looking hotel, excellent staff. But the rooms are old fashioned and need brining into the 21st centry. Spa is dirty, sauna was not working, swimming pool room and changing rooms are cold. Everything needs a deep clean.

Needs money spent on it
Sadly the hotel needs some much needed work done to it. The room we had badly needed renovation with a badly worn carpet through to the threads, stained chairs, worn headboard, socket hanging off the wall and bath panel corroded. This hotel was once immaculate but they now have pet friendly rooms so make sure that you are not in one of those if staying without dogs.
