SG4 Brasserie at the Needham House Hotel

It's a big place and a bit confusing to get into. The entrance is not where you think it is and it's not well lit when you drive in. Keep left. Keeping to that theme, I couldn't see the way into the hotel itself. The obvious entrance isn't the entrance. It looks like you are going through the doors of a function room. An impression not at all helped by all the machinery for wheelchair lifts up the steps. One piece of advice don't park under the trees, the local avian population will leave you some fairly hefty presents on your car if you do. Service at the desk was excellent, even if it looks like they are sat at a hastily erected table in a corridor. Up to the room and it was a bit of a trek, it's big. The room itself was lovely, I had a standard double with a huge bathroom. Bed comfy. Ate in the restaurant in the evening with colleagues. The experience was good, the menu was interesting, and the food when it arrived nicely done. Bit loud and echoing with low ceiling. Need some acoustic tiles on the roof I think. The price was up market but not overly so. Finally the best bit...it's generally a cool place, as in not hot. Heating in the room is up to you. So for once I slept like a baby. Very comfortable. A good hotel, with enough quirks to make it memorable.
