Langdon Hall Country House Hotel & Spa

Food and accommodations were superlative. Service by staff who love their jobs. Little missteps that were easily sorted. Thoughtful consideration for celiacs. Loved the valet and porter service. And the consideration for our dogs. They had an amazing time. It was an wonderful Christmas experience.

After dinner I got extremely sick and I was up the whole night with diarrhea/vomiting and only started to recover around 130pm the next day. Food & Beverage director took a few days to get back to me and said I likely have a deep food sensitivity. I don’t have allergies or sensitivities. I asked for a refund of dinner and he offered lunch for two and I said it would be inconvenient for me to drive back for lunch and get childcare. He never responded back to me. There were also little things throughout the day - we came early they said they would let us know if room was ready early. We mentioned if it’s not ready early to leave our bags at the front so we could change for spa appointment - they ended up taking our bags anyway. So we had to have them bring it back down. They said the room was ready but wasn’t inspected so we couldn’t go in. When I was extremely sick there was one guy at the front who seemed hesitant to let me checkout beyond 1pm - even though I explained I physically could not go home yet until my stomach settled. I thought it was a bit rude and insensitive. He said “let’s play it by ear”. Poor service!! While the grounds were lovely - the room was spacious but a bit tired and needs a refresh. The spa service itself was great but the spa facilities were lackluster - seems like what you would get at a 3 star Marriott hotel. I much prefer the Four Seasons spa which has much nicer facilities - save yourself the drive.

We were guests at a recent wedding at Langdon Hall and were fortunate to snap up the last available room for the night. It was our first time at Langdon and we were pleasantly surprised. We had heard good things from others about the food. We arrived at Langdon a few hours ahead of the wedding and elected to sit outside the main building in one of the shaded outdoor seating areas. Listening to the falling water and splash of a water feature into a small man made pond with lovely background music wafting through the air we felt like we were at a country estate in Ireland or somewhere else in Europe, not 1 1/2 hours outside Toronto. With the wonderful atmosphere we enjoyed some drinks and snacks and just felt so relaxed, already planning another visit. The main building has all sorts of areas to lounge in as well as a room with a pool table, scrabble and other games. We had a lovely cloister room (room 24) with a small outdoor patio, a super plush queen bed, great air conditioning, tv, free wifi, a wood burning fire place, seating area, a soaking tub and separate shower. The linens were high end by Au Lit and a Dyson hair dryer. The grounds are beautifully landscaped and you will enjoy a walk through the vegetable gardens with super tall stalks of corn, sunflowers and all sorts of wonderful greens that are cut and used to prepare hotel meals. While we didn’t use the pool we did peek through the gate and there was ample seating and it looked really lovely. Our time didn’t allow us to spend any time at the spa so we’ll look forward to that some other time. Breakfast is expensive at $52 but it was delicious and well plated. We can’t wait to go back.
