My recent stay at the hotel was nothing short of delightful. The staff was incredibly attentive and friendly, making me feel welcomed from the moment I arrived. I especially enjoyed the spacious room and the fantastic dining options offered, but I did find the breakfast service a bit slow at times, which was a minor downside. Overall, it was a wonderful experience filled with luxury and comfort, and I would definitely return.

Doxford Hall is a beautifully restored hotel that offers a luxurious experience with spacious rooms and excellent dining options. The staff were attentive and friendly, making my stay even more enjoyable. On the downside, some public areas could use a bit of cleaning, and I found the crockery unexpectedly chunky for the hotel's elegant style. Overall, it was a delightful experience with great value for money.

I had a mixed experience at the hotel, starting off with a beautiful setting and lovely food. However, the service left much to be desired, with long waits and cold food during my meals. The staff was accommodating, but there were significant lapses in service quality that were hard to overlook. Despite the lovely ambiance, these service issues detracted from my overall enjoyment of my stay.

Doxford Hall offers beautiful grounds and a peaceful atmosphere, perfect for a relaxing getaway. The attentive staff make you feel welcomed, and the spacious rooms provide comfort, although some updates would enhance the experience. Unfortunately, the dining options need considerable improvement, particularly breakfast, which was underwhelming and inconsistent. Overall, it's a lovely spot for those seeking relaxation, but it could shine brighter with better dining choices.
