Beautiful property in need of TLC & staff training
We experienced a mix bag. The waitstaff was excellent, the food was very good. The condition of the building was rough in areas. The view out one window of our room was of the water--beautiful! Out another window was a roof repair that had been half-completed and all the construction debris left. The exterior of the building was needing TLC as were the gardens. The check in staff was lacking in training as was the spa staff.

Magical! Hastings House offers the most stunning setting for walks, drinks and dinner. The suites are unique and luxurious with beautiful views. Service was outstanding and what a treat to find warm, fresh-baked muffins at your door in the morning. Enjoyed fabulous massages at the spa. A quick and lovely walk to Ganges shops.

While the property is like a quaint country side with lots of flowers and meadows, the facilities themselves were like a step up from camping. We stayed in a suite with a nice peekaboo view however, the room was not cleaned even once in the 4 days we stayed. We asked numerous times to have it cleaned to come back to it in the same state. Our plumbing went at one point and they gave us another room (which was still dirty from the last guest) to use the washrooms. When we came back to our room, all of our soap was gone and toilet not fixed. There were large ants all over the room and the "warm muffins" they say they leave you in a basket were mini bite sized snacks left in a soggy paper bag that you got lunches in back in the 80's. It felt like a pity muffin. The "4-diamond" restaurant was more like a 1-pebble with an extremely overpriced menu for subpar service. Do not recommend.

Hastings House is a beautiful property. The only hiccup was the TV in our room wasn’t working due to a faulty cable box. Unfortunately the cable box could not be switched out. The only available rooms had not been cleaned. We were told this right after we checked in, as we checked out the TV right away. Fortunately the Manager (Allan), made everything right and arranged for another room to be cleaned prepared for us. It was ready by the time we finished dinner. We were also upgraded to one of the newer air conditioned units; which was greatly appreciated as this was during a heatwave. The staff are all very efficient and helpful. A Fantastic place to stay!

The restaurant needs resuscitation
Gorgeous property. We stayed at one of the Hillside suites and the setup and amenities are very nice. The real disappointment is the restaurant. The menu reads like it hasn’t been changed in decades (think escargot). In the right hands old fashioned can be amazing but unfortunately, there is no finesse to the food, which at the price point is really unforgivable. For example the scallops and prawns - served with a heaping pile of bland caesar salad and the kind of overly salted matchstick fries that were really trendy in the 90’s. Why? Other dishes though less mysterious in their design were also disappointing. It’s a shame because the grounds are serene and well kept.

Charming country hotel. Not Relais&Chateau level
This hotel is in a great location with a lovely garden. It is definitely not the standard of a Relais & Chateau however. The restaurant and food were deplorable. The menu seems not to have changed since the 1980s. Presentation wasn’t interesting. Lamb special was chewy with a salty sauce and overcooked broccoli. Salad had far too much oil and was served on a plate too tiny for the whole pieces of lettuce. Prawn avocado salad was served on a warm plate swimming with a sauce that was far too spicy. The value was not there considering the high prices. And that was just dinner in the fine dining room. Breakfast was not good either and service was sadly lacking. We understand these are challenging times but when you pay that much, you deserve better! The room we had called Manor East is right over the kitchen and very noisy in the morning. Don’t book it unless you want to be woken at 6:30 a.m. The things we did like were lots of big fluffy towels and pillows. We enjoyed walking around the gardens and being close to Moby’s where the food is good for the price. We booked Hastings House thinking it would be like the manor houses we stayed at in the Cotswolds, UK and other Relais &Chateau hotels but it was nowhere close to them. Overall it was disappointing, especially as it was to celebrate an important anniversary.
