My wife took me here for the day as a birthday surprise. I had a one hour massage in Jules Spa and Becki, it was brilliant. We then went for a swim, sauna, steam room a jacuzzi. Other then the pool being a little chilly and cold changing rooms, we had a great time. Afterwards we went to the Time Restaurant and the staff and food was amazing. Great service. My wife had the beef burger and I had the roast beef. Both really nice dishes. Special thanks to Aaron who served us, as well as the rest of the team (Ciara, Jessica, Oliver and Evie) for looking after us. It really tipped off a great day. We'll worth a visit

Booked a late night away and was delighted with hotel everything from the check-in to check out was excellent. Customer service throughout stay was second to none. There were two big events going on during our stay, and our experience wasn't affected in the slightest. The room was huge and spotless, and dinner in the bar and breakfast following morning were superb. Would highly recommend and will be returning

The hotel itself was lovely and staff were excellent. We also used the restaurant which was very nice. The were 2 small negatives: we didn't realise you had to book a time slot for the pool, and the slot that would have suited didn't even show on the website to try it. We found the hotel very warm and didn't really understand how to use the heating/air in our room to try to cool it down. However, we would definitely stay again.

We had our wedding at the Pillo Hotel in August 2023. I don't even know where to begin. The whole day from start to finish was absolutely amazing!!! Francesca, what a woman. She was so lovely to deal with right the way through. She kept us up to date throughout the build up, even to the point of just checking in to see how we are or if there was anything we needed from them. There were even a few surprises on the day too which were absolutely brilliant. I won't say too much as I'd hate to ruin the surprises for other couples. We were lucky enough to have a beautiful day so our photos in the gardens look absolutely stunning. Gareth was the Duty Manager on shift that day and he looked after us so well. There was another manager on but I didn't get her name and I'm raging!! My sister had an accident and ended up covered in smoke bomb dye. The lady manager took her into the bathroom and helped her clean up her dress and make up. The little things like that were just so helpful. The food was delicious, the atmosphere was incredible. The staff got involved in our reception entrance to hype up the guests. It was all just amazing. I can't fault the Pillo at all. The staff, the service, the food, the cleanliness, professionalism, everything was a 10/10 across the board. 100% recommend the Pillo Hotel. I wish I could do it all over again. Thank you so much Francesca and team for making our day so special. xx…

Just finished my birthday weekend in the Pillo, the manager ciara was exceptional and helped us with anything we needed. We had a lovely meal in the Time restaurant, Aaron and Celine made it extra special and with great service! We also got treatments done in the spa with Becky and another lovely girl whose name I actually didn’t catch. It was so relaxing and really made for a special birthday weekend. The hotel itself was gorgeous and beds were super comfy and clean. We’ll definitely be back!
