Kerry
Spacious bedroom. Grass area to exercise dogs staying with you but nothing else provided.
Needs maintenance and cleaning inside and out.
Benches rickety and planters full of weeds.
Shower in room needs full replacement due to timescale build up, damaged tiles, mould and dirt making the shower unusable during our stay.
Noise does transfer between the rooms out in the car park building.
Breakfast offer was not edible due to having been frozen in the bread and simply left to defrost for guests. Would suggest a rate of closer to £50 a night not £80+ for such accommodation.
An informative and welcoming check in.

Large room, fridge with milk, water and orange juice, plus cereals for breakfast. Separate annex with access to garden for dogs was perfect.
Lee
While the room was cheap it wasn’t very clean the shower was filthy the windows was filthy the vinyl the soap dispensers was very dirty, had a hand towel with the edges all frailed at the ends no light as you come out the room onto the landing I was left a soft brown banana that was left for the breakfast two days in a row and a slight brown apple . The breakfast sandwich was a cold defrosted bacon and sausage sandwich with the date it was frozen or defrosted on it I can’t remember. I’ve stayed in several places that cost the same that was very clean with a continental style breakfast. I know it was low budget but never expected that.
Stephen
Great place especially for the price I paid and that included a breakfast :) had a mini fridge, desk, staff were excellent and the room was clean. I would stay again.
Liam
room was freezing cold, even with heating on. couldn’t alter the shower temperature due to the thermostat not working, it was stuck on boiling hot. bed very uncomfortable, impossible to sleep through the night.
LEE
Room tired, needs a refresh.

Room dusty and pillow cases and towels seem better days, could do with a few things freshened up.

Quiet
Quiet friendly place with food that wasn't bad. Off the beaten track but that suited me. A very cold night and even with extra heater was still nippy. Couldn't recommend in winter.
Stephen
I loved it!
Its a delightful tavern. Plenty of room on the car park and onto a traditional, friendly bar where my hosts booked me in quickly and with a great intro to how everything worked. I had room 2, in a purpose built outbuilding and I was really pleased with the first impression. Everything worked as it should and there were lots of extras not normally given in this type of accommodation. The bed was kingsize, the room had alot of space, a fridge, hot chocolate as well as the usual tea and coffee. My breakfast was in the room (see pictures). Edit - the pictures won't upload!
I arrived too late to use the restaurant but the menu was varied and looked like the meals were good value - maybe next time...

River Don Tavern - Not up to scratch
Needs to make it clearer in the details that the restaurant does not operate on a Monday (and no local takeaways) & that the breakfast is sort of continental in the room.
Single room in main building is small but adequate, small fridge (but noisy).
Bed not very comfy.
Will not be staying here again

River Don Review
Easy check in at the bar and a friendly welcome. Car park was big enough to find a space at the rear. Room was clean and cosy, and I slept soundly. DIY breakfast in the room, though hot meals available for those planning a longer stay. Good, honest establishment and great value for money.
Racheal
The room was a good size with plenty of room for 2 people to stay comfortably. There was a fridge with a large bottle of drinkable tap water.
The bed was okay but I have a bad back so brought a single topper with me.
The staff were lovely and helpful. The TV remote wasn’t working so the lady swapped it for me. She also got me an extra bottle of water every day.

I tried to cancel this booking but was unable to and Hotels.com isnt very helpful when trying to do this. I spoke with the property owner and he was unable to cancel the booking either.

Dean
Received a warm welcome from the owners and staff at The River Don Tavern. Had a lovely meal, well cook with generous portions. Good size room with large bed, plenty of tea, coffee, chocolate and biscuits. Good breakfast supplied. Shower a bit dated, but clean with plenty of hot water. Spacious car park. Quiet farming village with safe walks for our dog. Enjoyed our stay.
Lisa
Great little spot
Great value place to stay with breakfast. I had informed them I would be arriving after 10pm someone was there to check me in. Super friendly too! I would go back for sure. All amenities in my room with a fridge and breakfast all in the fridge! Thanks for a restful stay.
Stuart
Friendly and Comfortable
You check in at the tavern and the rooms are in the lodge at the rear of the property. Everyone was really friendly, the room was very clean and the bed really comfortable. Would recommend staying here if you need somewhere to stay in the area.

Gary
My stay of choice when in the Scunthorpe area. Friendly traditional pub atmosphere, so rare these days. Excellent food, service and welcoming staff. Can recommend happily!!
Martin
Comfortable, great food, good value!
I've stayed here before, so i expected it to be good, and it was. A comfortable single room, with a well-lit desk for doing some work. The evening meal was excellent! (Unfortunately I was unable to have breakfast, but i know it would have been good.)

Friendly inn
Great friendly welcome, excellent room and great food
Mark
When we arrived, the restaurant was closed for reasons beyond their control, but they helped us order takeaway, which we ate in their pub.
N
Not as good as the rating
The staff in the pub were very welcoming. The accommodation is not in the pub but in a separate building at the back of the car park. The building has four, ground storey bedrooms. The bed linen was a yellowish colour and the bed not very comfortable. The room was rather dated ad tired looking, really not sure how this location got a 'superb' rating.
Luke
Impressed
The room was far better than the picture on website so impressed straight away

Him and his wife are very friendly and anything u need he is sure to accommodate

Great stay at the Don
Warm welcome, spacious room with fresh milk and water in bedroom fridge, so much nicer than little uht pots. Good value, well cooked meal in the bar with excellent real ale. Breakfast served within flexible timeframe and was again, very nicely cooked and plentiful. Would stay here again.

Business overnight
NOTE!! It is in a small village 30 minutes drive from Scunthorpe.
My room was in a lodge at the end of the car park, quiet, good size, but not the warmest (I was actually cold) and poor wi-fi, also I could not get the shower to a usable temperature in the morning, so had to wash in the basin. Food nothing special.

Cold room and parking unsafe without video cameras
Room was cold and radiator was just warmish. In bathroom was very cold. Pillows where dirty and unchanged for a long time. There is no internet Wifi only in lobby but very bad. Parking is not safe and without video cameras. Breakfast was good english traditional, with some fresh fruits, yogurt. On the table was a bottle with water but unsealed and it is from the sink.
