Overall, I had a good stay at New Place. The room was clean and comfortable, and the leisure facilities were good.
My only criticism concerns the catering options, which are obscenely expensive for poor quality. A half-pint bottle of lemonade cost £3.75, which is absurd; a small chicken burger and some chips cost £22, and the chicken was badly overcooked; a ham sandwich (which I had assumed would be on good bread, but was in fact simply on sliced white bread) cost £12. The only chips available were 'chunky' chips, with no fries available at all.
Further, I was disappointed at how limited the options were for room service. My time at the hotel coincided with the middle of a storm, and I didn't particularly want to have to brave the rain to go to the main hotel building for food. But upon calling (there was no room service menu in the room), I was told that the only options were pizza or a hamburger (with no cheese or other addons available). This was very disappointing considering how extensive the main restaurant menu is.
In all, I enjoyed my stay, but I would hope that the hotel works on its menus and makes catering easier (and cheaper!) because it is currently unbelievably expensive for poor quality food.
