"However we are operational during this period and can clarify we are not in receivership or administration.

"In the meantime, we sincerely apologise for the inconvenience this will cause, any concerns or quesitons regarding the impact our closure should be emailed to [email protected] where a member of our team will be happy to contact you by return."

The hotel turned off comments on its Facebook post and its website has been deactivated.
