Arniston Spa Hotel

1 night birthday celebration. Ive been before, hubby not. As usual the venue is perfect. The views are perfect! Reception welcoming but I was passed on from 1 to the other which I dont like. Room os what expected, nothing wrong except when we finally retired which was just before midnight we realised the 1 foot of the bed was broken and gone...lol. We did mention it the next day to reception, no apology, just a giggle. We wanted to eat at Bistro but was apparently booked out for private function. And this after I was notified by reception via email that we could eat at either but I should book at Bistro.. anyway, Bistro's menu was served at main dining room and my, the food was excellent! Now, biggest complaint and I mention this as to help improvement. The barmen's service at Bistro is beyond bad and unprofessional. I asked for cocktails, was sent to another off the side bar where I was ignored. Went back to main bar where we were eventually assisted. Waited for more than half an hour. I eventually went to ask and was told I must go fetch it myself from the other bar where it has been standing for about 15 minutes. Next day lunch time I ordered a mojito and got brown "off' mint. I went to the bar to ask for a fresh one, bartender continued to fish the leaves out from the glass in front of me, luckily using tongs. I told him Id prefer a new one and he replied they have run out of mint and used the previous days'....got a 'new" drink with no mint but of course asked for payment first. That's not service.

We really enjoyed swimming in the sea, as this is very relaxing and healing. Treatment at the Spa is also recommended.

At the end of the world there is a lovley hotel at the beach. We had a very big room witch was totaly equiped, at the baech side. Everybody was very friendly and the food in the restaurant was great!
