"Value For Money Hotel Ideal For Nottingham and Southwell Races,"

9.0

Very pleasant inn/hotel with riverside views ( The Trent ). Friendly and efficient staff. Large,pleasant and quiet bar. Very spacious car park. Above all great value for money. As a solo traveller I got quite a large ensuite double room with a cooked breakfast for about £55.

Nothing of any significance. Possibly a bit of tlc needed in places but at the price no complaint from me.

It was clean.

Its not a 4 stars hotel at all. Maximum 2. Everything is very old and tired, things don't work or are broken.

"Relaxing stay"

8.0

Nice view of the river in the front. Large dining room downstairs. Overall relaxed atmosphere, very friendly staff. Comfortable bed, good water pressure in bathroom, Yorkshire coffee and tea - offering a better brand may be a small thing but it shows care. Plenty of storage space in the room (wardrobe plus medium-size chest of drawers, practical bedside tables), large room. Lots of parking behind the building.

"Avoid at all costs."

3.0

Nice place to stay. Probably much nicer in the summer than winter. Room was OK although not very clean, bed was comfy.

Sadly, a lot more than I liked. Room was dingy. Several light bulbs not working. Radiators need bleeding so room was cold. No shower gel or shampoo. Asked twice but never sorted. No toilet paper. Unforgivable. I got some when I went and asked. Despite advertising a residents bar it closed at 9pm as ‘quiet’. Ridiculous. No food, no drinks. We ended up dragging chairs out of our rooms into the lobby and sharing a bottle of wine we were lucky enough to have in one of our cars. Yes, quiet time of year but don’t advertise facilities if they are not available! Overall this was a very poor experience. Some of the staff were excellent but sadly some were shockingly bad. We booked 5 rooms for 2 nights and will never stay here again.
