酒店房間很小，不像國內酒店一樣，性價比很差，兩個白人女前台有種族歧視，房間似乎有監控，衹要房間白天有第三人出現就會很快來電話叫我們讓第三人退出房間！

就是比較好的民宿，説實話欣賞不來。
一個樓裏一間房，樓下是餐廳。

羅萊夏朵的酒店，但是定的時候衹有這個房間了，沒想到這麼小，有條件的還是定大點的吧，住着舒服，酒店樓下有米其林餐廳。

We booked the lake house for one night and the spa lodge for 2 nights Loved both experiences The only negative thing about the lake house spa suite was the hot tub cover which really needed replacing but apart from that everything else was stunning we were given a warm welcome and the views and the facilities amazing Breakfast in room was a plus Then we moved onto the spa lodges for 2 nights again stunning Everything there that we needed Staff at brekfast were friendly and welcoming The spa was beautiful and I loved my treatment Only one downside really and that’s the service charge I think at the 2300 we paid for 3 nights was more than enough to pay and a service charge made me feel a little bit embrassed having to ask to remove it , I hadn’t been made aware this was added on booking But we will be back hopefully over Xmas

Beautiful location, lovely rooms, and excellent food at two onsite restaurants, including Michelin-rated "Source". The staff is very attentive and seeks to meet your every need.

We chose to stay at The Gilpin Lake House for our wedding anniversary. After driving for a couple of hours we found the main hotel and were then provided directions to get to the Lake House, a 6 min drive down a country lane. Through the automatic iron gates, then around to the lake house. This used to be a family house and has been converted into a luxury boutique hotel. On arrival we were greeted warmly and professionally from a member of the team. We sat in the lounge and had a sandwich and drink from the bar whilst we waited for our room. Afternoon tea was also being served in the small dining room. All rooms had a great view of the serene private lake. We were then informed that we had been given an upgrade to one of the Lake House Spa Suites. We were shown to our room, just 50 yards away from reception. It was a magnificent open plan space, with a huge balcony overlooking the private lake. The room had its own sauna, steam room and hot tub. Fantastic. (The shared hot tubs at the hotel are booked out in slots so you don’t have to share with other guests, which we don’t enjoy) There are several places to chill out in the grounds along with a boat house to chill out in whilst looking out across the lake. There are also two rowing boats if you fancy having a row on the lake.. We had dinner at the Spice restaurant as we didn’t want the Michelin star tasting menu. Food and service were excellent. After dinner we had a drink in the hotel bar. There is a complimentary private Porsche with a driver to get you from the lake house to the restaurant and back. Breakfast in the small dining room was fantastic, full a la carte menu to choose from. Really enjoyable. We’ve stayed at many 5 star hotels and this was quite different from the modern city hotels. It was fabulous and an utterly peaceful and relaxing stay. Highly recommend this if you just want to get away from the rat race! .

From the moment we arrived at the Gilpin Hotel, we knew we were in for something special but we never could have anticipated just how incredible our stay would be. A huge thank you to Emma at reception for the warmest of welcomes and for the welcome call just before we arrived, to Rob for looking after us so attentively, and to Tom, the Maltese manager, whose hospitality was second to none. We were staying there because we were doing the Ultra Challenge, and the entire team made sure we were not only looked after but truly pampered. Nothing was too much trouble, and they made us feel genuinely special throughout our time there. We also had the pleasure of dining at Gilpin Spice, and the food was absolutely outstanding a real highlight of the trip. Every dish was packed with flavour and beautifully presented; a true culinary treat that we won’t soon forget. The spa facilities were just the cherry on top, a perfect place to unwind and recover after the challenge. We honestly couldn’t have asked for more. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for making our stay so memorable. We would not hesitate for a second to recommend the Gilpin Hotel and all of its incredible staff. We can’t wait to return.

Our first meal at Gilpin was an absolute delight! Dinner for two in Gilpin Spice was delicious and service was fantastic with very cheerful and attentive staff. We are already looking forward to our next visit.
