Hotel was situated next to the river and although very close to the airport it was quiet and very scenic. The rooms were a little dated although our shower pressure was amazing. Evening meal was a bit hit and miss. I wasn’t impressed with the price or quantity of mine but others said their meal was nice. The breakfast however was amazing and the gentleman running it was extremely organised and accommodating to our needs. Definitely worth the money.

Really nice looking property with easy parking. Food was excellent and location was out of the way quiet but still easy to get to.
Some negatives was that the matteress was old and soft so you rolled toward the center and one of the receptionists had limited people skills. No conversation loke 'good morning, how was your stay.... anything and one of the advertised benefits of that roaring fire was not kept alight so any though of having a drink after dinner infront of it ..you can forget. Consideringvwe were there when it was snowing what a missed opportunity. Rest of the team were good.
Would i go back.... no, i dont think so as the beds so bad, foods pricy ( but amazing) and the lounge a bit unwelcoming without that roaring fire.

The hotel is in a lovely setting and has the potential to be great but the shower hose spurted water everywhere and it was impossible to turn the bath taps so had to fill the bath with the spurting shower. The decoration in the room was tired. It needs investment to get it up to scratch.
On a plus point, the room was very clean, the food was very good, the restaurant very nice and the staff were lovely.

Nice hotel near Castle Donnington. Accommodation in cottage was ok but in need of updating.
This is second time I’ve stayed here.
Biggest issue on both occasions is noise in early hours. Must be airport runs. People talking at high volume between 3-4am with no regard to others.
Suggest the hotel puts a sign up to ask people to respect others by being quiet after 11pm!

The property was very clean, amd the surroundings absolutely lovely, even despite the heavy rain of storm Claudia. It's an old, OLD building, so some creaks and age-related setbacks were expected. However it does seem that the maintenance team is slacking somewhat. Mine and my neighbours' toilets had poor drain venting, and would gurgle loudly. A few electrical sockets were loose or broken. The electric radiator seemed to struggle to keep a comfortable temperature on colder nights (0°C), having been placed bizarrely next to the old single-pane windows.
The staff however were top-notch and the hotel was pristinely clean, with quite a solid breakfast option. Parking was quite plentiful, but beware the kerbs and dips in lowered cars.

Overall a nice experience, but maintenance could be better.

A worn out hotel
Arrived 5 minutes after kitchen last orders and advised no food was possible and was given my rooms, having booked main house double rooms i was given 2 single rooms in the annnex building.
Receptionist was completely uninterested blaming hotels.com and no other rings were avaliable and that no refund of the price difference was offered.
The annex rooms were poor at best, badly decorated and very dirty, evidence of damp in the paint marks, a worn out single bed with a mattress clearly passed it's prime. The pictures on the walls one had a smashed glass and the remains were still stuck in the frame.
To top it off in the morning the shower was cold.
This place might look good in the images but in reality it's one of the worst places I've stayed.

An old and very tired hotel - needs an uplift

Where do I start? - I travel a lot on business and stay in a lot of different hotels. I'm a working class man who has simple tastes, so I am NOT a hotel snob. Clean and functional is generally all I'm after. Thos hotel provided neither.
I was moved to a executive room in the main building after being put in a cottage room - see my previous feedback for that one.
The only thing that might have defined this room as an \"Executive\" room was the fact it had a separate chair in there - which was old and uncomfortable.
The room itself was very tired and very dated. The TV was at least 20 years old - hardly any Freeview channels and not a smart TV - really!!!! - In this day and age?
The bed was comfortable I'll give them that, but the paint work was blotchy, the carpet was probably as old as the TV.
The bathroom looked like it had been improved - but the bath leaked and there was water on the floor of the bathroom constantly - there was a smell of stagnant water in the bathroom which seemed to be coming from the toilet. The shower gel was impossible to get out of the little container - I don;t know who designed those.
The Wifi was very intermittent - making it difficult to do FaceTime calls to family.
It's a real pity because the location is very nice.
My view - this is a perfect example of hotel owners who never stay in their own hotel - they'd be horrified if they were to live as a customer in this hotel - or they might not be bothered?
Definitely won't be staying here again

Just not up to standard - poor

This hotel looks nothing like the pictures on the website. The cottage rooms were frankly appalling. The whole area around them looked like a crack den. very poorly maintained and in an awful condition. furniture was old, bed was awful, condition of room was awful - paintwork hadn't been touched up. The TV was at least 20 years old (no smart TV is just not acceptable for today's travellers.
The room was SO bad, I got the receptionist to move me to a room in the main house. she was great, but the room is still very average at best. This hotel needs a full makeover, probably looks the same as it did 25 years ago. I won't be staying there again

A fun and joyful stay

We stayed in the cottages next to the main hotel. Two of the group were in the ground floor units which unfortunately suffered from damp. The musty smell was overpowering at night especially as it was unwise to leave the windows open due to the water flies getting in from the river.
We asked for the two rooms be changed to upper rooms on the second night which was done without question. The rooms generally were clean and the beds comfortable.
The food in the restaurant was excellent and the staff team very attentive.

The restaurant and food was faultless. But unfortunately the cottage we were allocated had a smell of damp and mould. We were given another,slightly less smelly room, but still in the Cottages, This had flies on the curtain and windowsill plus the window frame was rotten and no way to open and securing the window open. Very disappointing.. we were told the cottage's are to be refurbished. Sorry but they are not fit for purpose and should be closed off. This is a lovely location and the property could be very special but not until it is brought up to standards. Other things wrong but could be accepted if the rooms were up to standard. Really disappointed with our stay..

Overall substandard

We stayed for a wedding, the photos online look amazing. When we arrived I was shocked, the place is run down and in need of some TLC. The public areas, bar, lounge, restaurant was ok, breakfast was ok it was a buffet style, however I only ate the pastries so not sure on the quality.

Other than one night porter I think his name was Jay, who stepped in to help they were all a little slow to respond to anything. With it being a wedding that cost a fair bit of money you would have expected everyone to know what was going on and a bit more forward in helping. There was definitely no special treatment for the bride.
Rooms, main building were ok, spiders everywhere. Some of the taps in the rooms were broken, missing indices, generally in need of replacing. Cottage, rooms were small, loads of spiders, in need of a refresh, one room on the ground floor was covered in mould so they had to move rooms.
Wedding food, they had a change of staff just before so the food was not as expected from the tasting day, it did taste lovely but the presentation wasn’t the best.
Overall substandard, I would not come back to this hotel.

The only downside is that the parking is a bit away from the cottages. There is 2 parking places for many cottages. We have a blue badge but can't be used. It is a fair walk with the luggage our dogs and their pet beds. But the room is very good and ideal for pets. The shower is probably the most powerful shower i have ever used.

The whole place could be amazing. Please do the basic maintenance on this lovely building (fixing dripping taps, washing carpets, fixing walls & new curtains wouldnt break the bank). You really feel the wow factor as soon as you drive up to this beautiful place and building. Unfortunately the lack of maintenance of the beautiful buildings and surrounding let the place down (now wow factor when you open the door). The bridge (which has plastic road blocks at the edge) looks like it to could collapse at any minute and the river edge patio is just a blocked off area of bricks. The rooms in the main building look very small and the cottage rooms really do need some TLC & some character. The hotel is very function focussed so reception etc.. is loverly but it is over priced until the rooms are in better condition. The bed was very comfortable but take air plugs if you are staying in the cottage rooms as you can hear every move the neighbours make and hear ever car that drives far to fast you window. Hopefully at some point the repairs will be done and I would then like to go back.

We stayed for one night and found the hotel to offer good value for the price we paid. Its location was very convenient for the Donington Park race circuit, which was a key factor for us. The restaurant was still open when we arrived late in the evening, with friendly service and reasonable pricing, though the menu options were somewhat limited. The accommodation, especially in the area away from the main house, could benefit from a refresh, but for a short stay at the price we paid, it met our needs. Overall, it was a pleasant experience, and we would consider staying again if the price remains competitive.

Unhelpful Receptionist

Receptionist was most unhelpful to the point of being rude. My party needed to book a taxi to the airport and she insisted we would need a 7 seater for 3 people with only hand luggage. She also overcharged for the agreed room rate

Power cut and staff unable to rest the water pump so no water to 6:50am and I needed to leave by 7am so I was unable to shower.
No bottled water available even to clean teeth.
Staff dismissive and no apology.

Awful mattress on the bed!

We had booked an admittedly low price room which meant we stayed in one of the row of cottage rooms separate from the hotel. The room itself felt slightly damp but there were two other problems. One was there was no hair dryer in the room. However the main problem was the mattress on the bed. Frankly it should have been replaced months ago as the springs at the edge had failed. Quite simply it was the most uncomfortable hotel bed I have ever tried to sleep in!
We were not impressed.

Booked the restaurant, for the restaurant to then please closed so had food at the bar. Staff lost order and tried to overcharge by £10 until pointing out the deal they had which was 3 plates for £18. Room is in a \"Cottage\" which is not a cottage but a long 2 floor external building, basic room, squeeky uncomfy bed, flaking paint in bathroom. Better quality at a budget hotel which are half price, very disappointed.
