Just returned from a weekend break at kenwood hall.
I got a great deal through laterooms.com £76 per night with an upgarde to an executive room and a bottle of wine on arrival. Check in staff very friendly and helpful, Found the room very easily.
The room was lovely. Very spacious and well laid out, A huge bed with georgeous bedding and a private balcong over looking the lake! The bathroom was a litle dated, but was spacious, very clean and had plenty of fluffy towels and toiletries.
On check in I was told that our bottle of wine should of been in the room , but wasnt, Reception quicky sent a bottle to us.
The only problem we had was the power went off in our room and the room next door for about 15mins we sat in the dark, as there was no emergancy lighting.
Breckfast was a buffet, served in the lovely restaurant with great views over the lake. Breckfast was served untill 11am so got a lie in aswell! Didn't eat dinner here but the choice and quility of breckfast was first class.
When we arrived on the friday out corridor was quite noisey as a football team were staying over, but this was only in the afternoon and we didnt hear them again.
There were two weddings in the hotel on the saturday but this didnt effect us at all, as weddings where in another part of the hotel compleatly, the only issue was finding a parking space.
Working in a luxuary hotel myself i tend to be a little picky, but our stay was fantastic, Hotel lovely, staff even better. Cant wait to go back.

We stayed at this hotel and it was the best night sleep we had ever had, Marriot hotels have the best rooms I have seen in the UK for a long time.

Breakfast was great
The bar is very expensive, We looked at the evening menu and it was very expensive so we asked Reception to organise a taxi and we went to the Rossi italian resturant about 10 mins away and it was a fab place and the food was great.

The pool etc is great and the garden's are lovely.


I will go back to this hotel in 2008 at some point

Not a new hotel,this was the Sheffield Marriott until the 1st of December.Now a Principal Hotel.Stayed one night with a coach party.Reception efficient and friendly,room warm and welcoming and above expectations.Service at evening meal very good,but the main course in particular was disappointing,noticed quite a few meals nowhere near finished.Breakfast was fine,unless you fancied a pancake,they were rock hard.Overall though a good experience,and it will be interesting to read reviews when Principal have been in charge a bit longer

This is a huge rambling place. My room was a good 5 minute walk from Reception and up and down stairs. If I were a disabled person with mobility problems I would want to be very selective about rooms and bookings.
That said, the room was huge, airy, and very comfortable although the plumbing belonged to another era. Breakfast was fine and the staff efficient if not over friendly. It was Okay but I wouldn't rush back.
