We have just returned home from our 3 night stay at Bodelwyddan Castle. The hotel ,staff were very friendly, our standard room very clean and comfortable, the food was good (could have been a little hotter) the Entertainment was good. Our only complaint was having no waitress service for drinks during the entertainment. This we found very difficult because the lighting is dimmed which made it impossible for my husband to see so I had the job of fetching a drink. Also many people were complaining about the long wait to be served at the bar. Lack of staff seemed to be the problem. I hasten to add we are NOT big drinkers but many people do like a few drinks during the evening. Also you certainly know how to charge for drinks the prices were outrageous.

Boo to warners. After many years of lovely holidays I am soo disappointed with my telephone conversation today. I explained that due to Vivid and now poor health i can no longer take holiday with them. . I cancelled holiday for 2020 due to lock down. Money refunded except for £20. Which they Held for next holiday. I also hold vouchers for this holiday. which apparently are out of date and although they extended them for 6 months. That is still during lockdown so couldn't be used!! Apparently they can't do anything about it because everyone would want refunds. Apparently the £20 deposit is only a gesture of goodwill. Rip off. sooo disappointed in them.

We went to CORTON. I am concerned that the food was good, nice place. Chalet was good.Entertainment...Butlin style. Staff very welcoming and helpful. BUT The HUGE let down is the shower . DO WARNERS THINK ALL LADIES CAN DO A HANDSTAND TO WASH THEIR LADY BITS IN SHOWER! !! There is a fitted shower which cannot be moved. We used bottles to spray water in that area! Come on Warner you letting the side down!!!

Stayed at Studley castle the first time staying at a Warners hotel. I was very impressed with how lovely it was inside with the refurbishment it has gone through. You get a very warm welcome on arrival and everything explained at check in. The hotel grounds and amenities are lovely and kept clean.The rooms are beautifully decorated and with the balcony the view is amazing. we soon got chatting to people . Lovely large walk I shower with fluffy gowns which are great to use in the spa. The cafe area and bar are very spacious. The staff there are very friendly. We were given a table in the restaurant for our 2 night stay and I must say a mention to Jasmine Crane who manages her team of waiter/ waitresses well under busy circumstances. Our waitress Sarah Kennedy served us with a smile and explained everything well nothing was too much trouble if we asked then she helped.It is a very large restaurant to serve so many . The buffet had good choice although I found the food mediocre. The entertainment was good with the resident band. Liked Ami Vasari her voice was amazing. The spa area could do with more loungers as we had to wait to get to use it to relax. All in all I enjoyed my stay here all the staff were lovely and friendly from the manager Graeme to the room attendants. Would stay again.

First time of visiting a Warners, checked in at 15.00 and after the first 15 minutes of problems at reception went to our room and was impressed with it. Hotel was clean, majority of the staff were friendly, nice grounds and entertainment was okay. Entertainment team were brilliant both throughout the day and evening. Motown & 60's night was disappointing but the entertainment teams Queen Rock night was superb. Problem with restaurant on first night made the wife want to pack up and leave at around 19.00 but the Hotel Manager and myself came to an agreement and we did stay and enjoyed ou 4 night break. To Senior Management: Big Bright Signs on either side of drive to hotel to make it easier for guests to find? An email 1 or 2 days before arrival to tell guests to pick up their keys and information from the hut on the left hand side of the driveway? Also in that email explain to guests that that upon entering the restaurant for the first time you "HAVE TO BE ALLOCATED A TABLE" by the restaurant manager!! In spite of this we would go back again.

Thorsby Hall 27 June - 4July Left a day early after too many issues with food, uncooked eggs, cold food, bacon on vegetarian breakfast, restaurants unable to offer dishes on menu, speciality gins offered but not available, no brown rolls for 6 days, fresh fish ran out by 6.30pm, no orange juice for breakfast, no marmalade.2 days after a deep clean was advertised Brassierre 32 restaurant still had food crumbs and celebration silver stars under the tables and on some seats. Sofa type seating with black greasy head marks. Felt sorry for staff facing customers complaints but no managers to deal with problems. Decided to leave in the morning a day early as no manager available until 5pm. NEVER AGAIN TO WARNERS only go if you like the beautiful halls and gardens

Holme Lacy Hotel. I Chose help yourself Carvery Restaurant , on arrival "Table service" only available . Less food "portion control" ( 3 small roast potatoes with everything) Less choice of menus . Usually given "Table for entire stay " now it's "Musical Tables" for every meal , ridiculous!. Meals timed and takes 90 mins ( by design not chance !) . For "Every meal" for some ridiculous reason ? staff couldn't find our name and room number on their list ,more delay and incompetence !. So after 30 years of going to Warner's this is the first Complaint from us , and if this is how the "Dinning Experience" continues , then our Holidays with Warner's will cease .

Presently at Lakeside. Our woodland lodge is lovely but cannot say the same for the rest of the facilities The pool and gym is closed Monday and Friday and only open 9am to 4pm midweek so no opportunity for pre dinner swim. Not as advertised on web site. The restaurant service is poor and lots ot items are not available due to no food being ordered as menu is to change next week. Staff shortages adding to the problems. Worst Warner holiday ever. Daily activities are all sport based, cinema closed, very few other things to do. So disappointed.

Worst break in the ten years of going to Warner's. Lack of staff, luke-warm, under cooked food, no alternative entertainment to the main show, no tea available after 10pm...we don't all drink alcohol! Told on numerous occasions 'table-service' only...but no-one came to take orders! Only one bar open after 9.40 on Sunday evening (19/06/22) Some of the things we experienced, were like an episode of Fawlty Towers! We even had a rat outside our garden Room! (Basil!) Am hoping Cricket St. Thomas is not a sign of things to come!

Hi just back from a long weekend at Cricket St Thomas 17th June to 20th of June and had a great time the grounds are stunning , the room was great we had a patio room 477, the housekeepers did a very good job. It would be good to add bar staff during the day in the main hotel , Maxine the bar laddy worked her boots off to satisfy all in the queue what a credit to your company, all staff are polite and professional nothing was to much trouble for them to make your stay the best it can be. Well done Warner's

We have enjoyed a 4 night stay at Bodelwyddan and found the accommodation and food excellent. Having missed our evening meal on the 6 June due to a long slow journey we were pleased to receive a salad brought to our room -a much appreciated gesture The grounds of the hotel are beautiful and a credit to the maintenance staff. Thank you

Just had a lovely weekend at Bodelwyddan Castle, all of the staff were really friendly and very helpful especially in the restaurant and also Dave who worked in the Atrium. The highlight of the weekend was the James Williams Showband on the Saturday evening, it was spectacular. James had so much energy and his voice was amazing. Can't wait to go again.

I take a Warner's holiday at least twice a year but I would think twice after my recent experiences. I stayed at Studley Hall and had a very pleasant weekend there. On my return I tried to pay the balance for an upcoming holiday with friends. Getting through on the phone is a challenge in its self. I eventually had to make do with an on line live chat where I was given the wrong information. I was told that each of my friends had to phone to use the money they had in a hols account. They were told this wasn't the case. After another on line live chat I was told I had to make the call. Half a dozen futile phone calls and I decided to email. This I did followed by a reminder a week later. Still no reply or acknowledgement. Their admin is appalling. Is it too much to expect a reply from them. I'm sure they will be in touch when the balance is due, but this just isn't good enough. I am frustrated beyond belief. I do wonder if they read any of these reviews because they on't appear to reply to any.

Our stay at Bodelwyddan. Breakfast was good but we didn't think that the dinner choices and quality were up to the same standard as previous visits when we had rated Bodelwyddan as the best for food. Although our main waiter was efficient, others were not, resulting in me having to clear plates from our table when he wasn't on duty. There seemed to be a shortage of trained staff. There was a comedian appearing on the last evening in the Mulberry lounge and our party had to stand throughout his hour and a half performance because there was insufficient seating. Not impressed. Hope things have improved if we visit again.
