Nice but room felt tired. Little or no staff around and due to kettle not working , and no one answering the phones, had to make a trip to reception to sort the problem out. Dining room was run like a circus, no organisation at all and waiting times for evening meal were long. Queues for breakfast even longer. Aware numerous staff had resigned leaving the hotel under pressure but why. A friends son getting married at Oulton next year - hope they sort out the problems they have. Golf great, really friendly and obliging staff. Made the weekend as a little disappointed with the running of the hotel

The hotel could do with a few things really. Or if the rooms had room service trays outside it for nearly a day, the cleaners for the rooms didn’t even take them away. For teas and coffees in the morning we had to use plastic cups which is obviously dangerous. Other than those 2 little things it was great

Lovely Hotel. Lounges, bar area and dining lovely rooms but they could have been slightly warmer. Maybe some of the entrance doors should have been closed as the first set of doors were automatic and the cool wind at the time was blowing right through the lower hotel areas. Probably okay in warmer weather. Dining menu very good and food excellant as were the staff. Rooms good with lovely beds.

We experienced many disappointments during our visit Having phoned ahead to arrange certain things (eg. Coffee & cobs on arrival) we found that this request had not been passed on. We were finally able to access these once we had made someone aware of the situation. However, these were extremely expensive. The clubhouse was not operating when we arrived or even on the Monday afternoon when we left. One or two staff were very helpful but, overall, we experienced a distinct lack of service. After not being able to access a drink at the clubhouse before departure, we adjourned to the hotel to experience an unacceptable wait for service. We left after half an hour without being served. The rooms were comfortable. The evening meal was acceptable if not fully catering for the dietary needs of our party. However, the restaurant staff were the most helpful staff that we encountered & they made good efforts to cater for us. Overall, I would have expected much better service & amenities from a venue that is set up to cater for society groups.

When we booked in we were told there was a £10 surcharge for eating in the hotel restaurant rather than in the club house for our evening meal. The staff told us this was a condition in the small print. However when I retrieved the email no mention of this could I find. Whereas eating in the clubhouse is fine for a group of men etc , we were a group of 4 mixed couples . We managed to get it rescindedbut thought you should know for future reference . We discussed this as a group and decided this condition might prevent us booking oulton hall again as a future venue. However we enjoyed it this time.

Hotel in parts is fantastic with good leisure facilities, but let down by tiredness of carpets, bathrooms new staff with limited training and poor restaurant service. No gin glasses available on 2 consecutive nights in bar - drinks were served in 2 half pint mugs !! With drinks costing over £10 each this is not acceptable for a hotel of this standing.

The Hotel facilities and rooms are top quality - but each time I have been (this was the third time) little things seem to go wrong. This time it was double bed configurations in our three twin rooms and our booking for 20:30 for dinner didn’t seem to have been auctioned. Both of these were on our booking confirmation and acknowledged by the reception staff as being booked.

Our 4 ball enjoyed the 2 games we had although a little wet when we commenced the first day and the ground in places became quite sodden in places. My wife required a buggy each day and at the end of September the price was rather high at £35.00 each day. (average prices at golf clubs is usually around £25.00)The greens were not true when putting as tining and sanding had started on the greens. My wife spoke with the golf shop person in charge but to no avail because he said this was there rates at this time of the year but he would speak to somebody about this a ring my wife in a couple of days.That was 6 days ago.

On the Sunday, we had to wait on the first tee due to congestion & misinformation about tee times with the society in front. Once on the course, the round flowed well. Having played the course 3 years ago I was extremely disappointed with the quality of the tees & especially the greens this time around. The greens had lots of infection on them but they had also been recently hollow tined. Apparently they do this in September every year. It would have been good to know this so that we could have adjusted the date of any proposed visit. This element had a distinctly demoralising effect on the members of our group who were looking forward to playing the course as I had described from my previous visit. As organiser I felt responsible for this disappointment. All 3 nines have interest in them but the enjoyment was totally undermined by the state of the greens. We understand that there have been problems due to Covid-19 but all courses have experienced this and yet have been able to produce greens of good quality. It’s fair to say that we won’t be coming back.
