The “compact double” live up to its billing but the room was clean, tidy and well appointed. Location of The Rugby Hotel is fantastic with lots of amenities within walking distance. The only drawback for me was the record-breaking high temperatures during my stay and, of course, the hotel doesn’t offer air conditioning—or even a fan. My top floor room became a sauna and even opening windows provided zero relief. Otherwise, it was a great stay.

Nice hotel in a good location. The main areas of the hotel are good except the corridors and staircases leading to the rooms which are tired and dated. The room itself was a good size with a really nice bed. The only negative regarding the room was the movement sensor light in the bathroom. I personally don’t see that this is needed. If someone went to the toilet in the night the sensor would turn on the very bright light which stayed on for around 5 minutes afterwards.

Nice hotel in pedestrian zone

Nice hotel in the center of Rugby, within walking distance of lots of places to eat. It's an old building and thus doesn't have double glasing, so it was rather cold at night. The heating wasn't on as it was only September. For the rest, the hotel is nice enough, room was small, bed was comfy and bathroom was clean. Staff was friendly.

The customer service was great, and the cleanliness and general order was on par with most at this price point. They were accommodating of us bringing a pet, even if this did come with a non-advertised charge.

However, I booked this stay in preparation for a very important interview day, and found myself consistently disturbed by the quite audible noise from other residents and the alleyway below, during the nighttime and daytime. I would attribute this to rather thin walls and no soundproofing measures on the windows or doors.

I was woken at 5:15am to the sound of a large vehicle and smashing glass, most likely the local council just doing their job, but this and the other noise really dampened my stay. It was also noticeable there was some clear staining on the ceilings and a partially unattached toilet seat.

Overall, not great, perhaps good?

the rear room was fine, but
the window was single-glazed with '60s louuvre ventilation which let in all the noise - traffic from warwick street and hilmorton road, and loud bottle and rubbish collection at 4am.
there was no advertised times for breakfast.
their website says their rooms have \"Flat screen, digital TV with over 100 channels plus you can cast from any device\", but for the life of me i could not cast from my phone and there were no instructions on how to.
also, the tv guide function was a couple of hours ahead, i.e. at midnight it seemed to think it was 2.30am. scrolling through the guide was pitiful. in the end i had to be content without the tv altogether.
i asked to see the ballroom, which the duty manager was pleased to show me. it stank of air-freshener which to my mind was to mask a worse smell of mustiness.
the bed and linens were really comfoetable, and the en-suite was excellent.
but you gotta do something about those wndows. i just don't buy that yiu can't do anything about it just because it's a listed building.

We will be back!

We stay in Rugby a couple of times a year and have always used the Travel Lodge. I am so glad that I decided to switch things up. This was probably THE most comfortable bed I have ever stayed in. Staff were lovely and the room suited our needs. Rooms are clean, tidy and look quite new however, as others have mentioned, they can get quite warm, so consider this if you're someone thats gets hot at night anyway. The hallways/carpet could use modernising to improve the overall look, but this is just cosmetic. We will defintely be back here again. Xx

Area was quite run down. So many shops closed down. Booked in to find that i had to park in ASDA car park and pay for parking when it clearly states that the hotel has onsite parking and that its free.
Staff were ok but for a 3star hotel you would expect a uniform and some professionalism.
Property is old but nice.
They have room services and do food amd drink but we didn't sample it so cant comment.

Wonderful hotel with outstanding staff and rooms who are efficient polite and customer-focused. Point of reference: if arriving after dark, park in Asda car park as close to The Prince of Wales as possible.

3)No hot water in the morning, only option was a cold shower, despite waiting 1h for it to turn warm(er)
4)tv with limited amount of channels, most channels weren’t accessible. No streaming option

Looks like it has had a recent refurbishment and the room was quite good however it was difficult to check in and even though it had a very large smart TV I could not make the cast function work. I also was not expecting an additional charge of £5 for parking

Room was small but clean and ok to stay for one day, but unfortunately the bed lights weren't working. View from the window was for the very ugly and dirty roof.
Breakfast, quite expensive for what we received. The only warm option is English breakfast but they were missing mushrooms (which we were not informed before ordering), fried egg was broken and looked more like an omlet.. no coffee express, but missing option of a warm milk. There was noone available to ask a question or even talk with.

Lovely, well run, historic & characterful hotel

This was a last minute booking, when our AirBnB apartment turned out to be a disaster. The hotel accommodated us at short notice and it turned out to be terrific. It was centrally located, clean, warm, and well maintained. The staff were welcoming and helpful. We only stayed the one night, but would definitely return if we had occasion to visit Rugby again.

The Hotel was fine. The directions for the car park were not good: the satnav postcode tried to take me into the carpark through the bollards & it was not clear how to drive round to the real entrance. I stopped the car and walked onto Sheep St to ask at the Hotel, but it was labelled 'The Horseshoe'! When I got inside, there was no-one at reception so I dialled the number from the phone on the desk & a mobile phone on charge on the shelf started ringing! Another guest explained to me how to get into the carpark, which I managed to do. On re-arrival I again had difficulty checking in. The room was comfortable & the check-out was fine!

Staff very friendly and welcoming. Breakfast was good value. Difficult to find initially as not clearly signed. Should let visitors know upon booking that they should park in the Asda carpark.

Avoid for a while

This hotel should close until the refurbishment has been completed.
Hazards everywhere.
Builder accessed my room while I was showering.
This hotel is very tired. Dog barking in the night…
Perfectly placed in what is now a run down town

Fabulous staff . Have a little patience , it will

The staff were the best , super friendly and eager to please . The hotel is under reconstruction so there are the odd blips . I had a small single room which will be great when renovated . They had redesigned the bathroom which looked good but a few design flaws 1. The steep bend in the sink faucet did not accommodate trying to fill the tea kettle full , you had to fill the cup three times then tip it into the kettle to fill it , 2. The spare toilet roll holder is down to the left of the commode and the paper roll gets absolutely soaked from the water spray of the open shower . Maybe these two things need corrected before all the bathrooms are reconditioned if you wish to save £ on toilet paper and kettle grumblings from guests . Cheers . Oh the glass window in 201 is cracked , sure it’s up for replacement. Did I mention the employees did everything to make your stay comfortable and were friendly and professional. I hope you keep them post refurbishment.

Very pleasant stay, though hot!

Staff was delightful. Bathroom was amazing, although it could use something non-slip in the shower. It could use a hook or 2 in the bathroom. No air conditioning and very hot with only a tiny fan. Staff more than made up for this. They were wonderful.

The room I assigned had a very strong smell of paint fumes that would have made me sick had I stayed. I turned on the tap in the bathroom and brown water came out. I explained this to the receptionist (who was very friendly and helpful) and asked for another room. He didn't have any so he kindly refunded my booking and found me another hotel nearby. I generally stay in budget hotels and hostels. I do not expect luxury - just basic facilities. But this is the first time I have been confronted with a room that was clearly not fit for human habitation.

Rugby stink pit

Not great, only one staff working, customers were waiting to be served in the bar/restaurant, the bar didn’t take cash? This place is in dire need of a refurbishment, The room smelt of damp and the carpets and curtains are dirty, certainly not worth the £85 I paid, I definitely wouldn’t stay here again unless some major changes were made.☹️
