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 The biscuits provided were out of date.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 are just back from a fantastic stay in Corick House. Had the most beautiful room, which we were told is the honeymoon suite. We struck lucky and the sun was out for our stay, felt like we were on holidays. Hotel wasn't crammed either. Special mention to Damian and Simon in restaurant who were lovely and so kind. Although all staff were great. Food was really good too. The spa is so nice. Lovely hydrotherapy room which costs £10 per person. There is an outdoor hottub but that has to be booked well in advance. Have already booked to go back for my birthday in January. Highly recommend.

We attended Corick House as a large family to celebrate a special birthday. Sunday lunch was outstanding with an excellent menu. The service from the staff was also faultless. Their attention to detail was very impressive. Everything was perfect. I would highly recommend and cannot wait to return.
