We stayed in room 19 which is lovely and spacious with an equally spacious bathroom. The bed is very comfortable and the bathroom was immaculate. There is a sofa and additional chairs which is a real treat in any hotel room. Having windows that open is so rare and very welcome.

Breakfast was amazing … we opted for poached eggs on toast and a mushroom and cheese omelette. Both were delicious … we could tell it was cooked by a professional cook or chef.

The staff at the Hopping Hare are first class … nothing is too much trouble and they are friendly, helpful and very welcoming. It’s always a pleasure to stay here and we’ll return soon. Thank you as always.

Lovely hotel however extremely hot in the room, although there was a fan in the room thus wasn’t powerful enough to cool the room.
Breakfast was of good quality however extremely slow with just one member of staff working

Absolutely unreal. The staff, every single one of them are fantastic. Here for a wedding locally and we greeted were warmly by all the staff here. The room is very large, very clean and well ventilated. The small touches in the room were very welcome, good towels, comfortable large bed and great coffee tray.
We went for lunch in the restaurant and it was out of this world, the duo of lamb being the absolute favourite. It was so tender, the ragu tartlet was rich and delicious with the pastry case crispy and melt in the mouth. Staff here are very attentive, ready for any request and are super friendly. Would HIGHLY RECOMMEND

Lovely brick building from 1902 retaining all its old charm.

Now a modern pub/hotel. Staff were very friendly and helpful. We had food that evening which was very good. Wine and beer prices were quite step but that's par for the course nowadays!!!

The bedroom was well appointed etc.

All in all, a great stay there.

They fed back to me that they really enjoyed staying at the Hopping Hare. The hospitality was amazing and the food was really delicious.

It’s definitely somewhere to return to.

Pleasant stay. Would revisit and recommend.

We really enjoyed our stay at the Hopping Hare. Service was exemplary, room was clean and plenty big enough. Restaurant food was a notch above your usual pub grub and reasonably priced. Would definitely stay here again and would recommend to others. We stayed one night for a World Cup rugby match at Franklins Gardens which was within walking distance.

We have stayed at the Hopping Hare a few times. It is a great pub, the food is very good, and the staff are very helpful. We would recommend the Hopping Hare to anyone. Only down side is getting to the rooms can be a little tricky - narrow passage ways and stairs.

Excellent food and service with a really nice atmosphere. Room was spacious and clean. My only complaint would be the mattress was slightly too firm for me and my wifes liking. Will definitely stay again if in the area.

Great breakfast and helpful friendly staff.

Food was exceptional for both evening meal and breakfast and staff was on hand and very helpful and friendly to deal with during my stay. Rooms were of a very good and clean but of an average standard but would stay again just for the food.

A Perfect Stay

Our stay was perfect from the minute we arrived to the minute we left. The room was spacious, stylish and spotless. The bathroom was great. The staff who work here are so welcoming and nothing is too much trouble. Everyone has a smile. We had an evening meal and breakfast and both were delicious. We couldn’t fault anything and will definitely be back very soon.

Jenny (staff) is efficient and caring about customer service. I watched her working hard at a busy lunch hour managing multiple tasks. She was courteous and helpful, answering my transportation questions and taking care of so much at once. The food is excellent and room quiet, clean and comfortable.

Cannot wait to come back for dinner & stay!

It was lovely, I am planning to come back to stay for dinner and and a night's stay to really make the most of it - it was a fantastic room, very large and the bed was huge!
The breakfast too was amazing as others have mentioned - absolutely stuffed and was one of the best I've ever had at a hotel.
Literally already planning a comeback!

Standard of Hotel and Food

Hotel & Room are a bit tired and needs a bit of an update/refurbishment. Noticed a bit of mould of a couple of windows but room was very clean. Breakfast was good and of high standard plus plentiful.

The team were very helpful and friendly, my room was cosy but spacious with a great cooked breakfast.

The food in the restaurant was absolutely amazing, far and way above average pub grub.

I travel a lot of work and this is now one of my favourite places to stay.

My fiancée and I returned recently from a pre-wedding trip to England, and the Hopping Hare was our jumping-off point for things we'd scheduled to do while in the Midlands. At every opportunity, the staff went above and beyond to make it a most enjoyable stay. We had one of the smaller rooms...small, but nicely appointed and well-maintained. In the mornings, I'd get the day started with a Full English, while my fiancée went through some of the other options. One evening, we stayed in for dinner and drinks. In every case, our food choices were exceptional. If you find yourself in or near Northampton and need a place to stay, stay here. You won't be disappointed.

The hopping hair was absolutely darling! The staff was so friendly and helpful. Dinner was fabulous. We stayed from seven till eleven. Had the full English breakfast in the morning and it was more than I could eat. Delicious delicious delicious. Check in was super simple and so was checking out so sad to have to leave.
