Corick House Hotel & Spa

Pros Comfortable beds, Damien and another restaurant server (didn’t get his name) were lovely, nice food at breakfast. Cons Room was filthy when we arrived, it looked like it hadn’t been cleaned (see attached photos). We spoke to a manager and they offered us another room in an older part of the hotel as they were fully booked. This room was dusty and had stains on the bed and flies began to appear in the bathroom. No towels were provided in the bathroom and no robes or slippers. The biscuits provided were out of date. There was a noise all night that sounded like a boiler turning off and on, so we got no sleep. We then moved back to the original room the next day, after it had been cleaned. As we entered the room we got the fright of our lives when a member of staff was standing right in front of us. Reception called to check on the room, I said we would stay the night but it still wasn’t clean. The kettle was dirty, the grout in the shower was still stained yellow, stain still on the light switch. Flies also began to appear in this bathroom also! No safe or mini fridge in any rooms other than the suites. We ordered lunch to the room and there was hair on both of the dishes. Understaffed in every department, spa, bar, restaurant, reception. Hotel very run down, windowsills broken in hallways. Wallpaper ripped off walls. Lift very dirty. The spa was small. Staff stressed out, couldn’t get a hold of anyone for queries. No coffee pods or teaspoons in spa relaxation room, I had to walk around looking for someone. Steam room door gets stuck so be careful! Initially we were only offered 20% off the bill which we did not believe was good enough considering the horrible experience we had. We were then offered 50% off but safe to say we won’t be back. I wanted to love this hotel but sadly it cannot meet basic standards for a two star never mind 4.

We stayed for 1 night bed and breakfast which was a Christmas gift. The staff were friendly and the room was basic but clean. We were very disappointed with the spa. We had to pay an extra £10 each and this was just to use the thermal suite which had a stream room, sauna and hydrotherapy pool. It was very small. Only about 12 people could use it at any given time. The hydro pool was cold so not suitable to relax in. We had a man shaving in the steam room which we felt was very unhygienic. Perhaps signs up to advise people not to shave would be helpful. The food was very good and the bar was a nice place to relax. A nice enough stay but wouldn't rush back.

Amazing from start to finish. Fabulous room, really spacious, spotless clean throughout the room, and hotel in general. We had the 3 course meal included and access to the spa (for an extra £10 per person). Spa area was spotless clean and looked well maintained. My partner didn’t have any treatments but I’m sure she will the next time. Steam room at the spa was excellent. One small issue for me was the thermal pool wasn’t actually very warm - maybe it’s meant to be that way but I was definitely expecting it to be a bit hot. No real issue though once we were in a while. Bar and restaurant area is stunning. Lovely fire in the bar area, and nice seating dotted throughout the bar /restaurant. Bedroom was extremely spacious and very warm. The cold weather snap has passed but it’s still hardly tropical outside! Room was warm without the heating even being on, which was nice. Food in the restaurant, absolutely outstanding! The steak was cooked to perfection and the vegetables just melted in your mouth. My partner had the lamb which was absolutely amazing also. Wine that we had with the diner was also excellent. Every staff member that we dealt with were all pleasant and very helpful. In particular during the meal, Simon was extremely helpful and knowledgeable, as were the ladies at breakfast this morning. We only stayed one night (12/01/25), we will be back though and will stay longer. Only other minor issue was that my partner paid extra for a Prosecco and sweat treat extra package , but they didn’t have the sweet treats, just strawberries with the Prosecco - not a game changer but just being honest. Maybe the extra should’ve been reduced in price for that reason. The sweet treats in the pictures looked amazing.
