Reception staff very nice, bar staff not very friendly, excellent breakfast, room smelt musty , TV not working properly, bed was dusty needs a good airing.
Bathroom clean
Beautiful setting right on the river Trent lovey old build been restored staff and food are great if in the area of donnington it’s a must stay location
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.
Paid for executive room but it was not an executive room, it was much smaller than it should be, only two plug sockets, small fan as you weren’t allowed to use air con in the height of summer the room was like a sauna, couldn’t use bathroom sink as plug didn’t work, meal times were disorganised chaos food running out and not being replaced quick enough, menu was pathetic most food had chilli which I cannot eat, overpriced tiny portions and unsatisfactorily cooked I’ve eaten better at Wetherspoons for less money the whole hotel needs a refurbishing as very dated and scruffy would not recommend or go there again.
Avoid at all cost
The location was prefect, parking available lovely view of the river. Meet and greeted by a friendly lady. Room is nice considering the building is old, I was at the back and the ventilation system was on so I couldn’t open the window, air conditioning wasn’t working. Lots of noise from people coming in and out, which disturbed my sleep.

Good but could do with some updating
The hotel is set in beautiful grounds with ample parking. The cottages exterior and communal areas could do with some updating. The shower room has been updated and the amenities in the room with tea and coffee making facilties. The choice at the buffet breakfast was ample with a very wide variety of hot and cold items. Check in and out was very efficient. The bed was slightly on the soft side for my weak back.

Disappointing
Looked tired and needed updating. We stayed in room 6 and i can't be the only lady who needs a hairdryer where she can also see a mirror - a very basic request. The bathroom door didn't close properly and the room was generally disappointing - unlikely to return. Breakfast was good.
Lovely hotel stayed fircaxwedding and the room was very nice

Nice
Nice room but lights outside shine all night in to bedroom. Bath water would only get to tepid and the bath tap of hot in room 18 was so hard to turn off I bruised my knuckle. Gorgeous setting and quiet at night
What a great hotel! I booked because of its proximity to Donington Park race circuit and didn't really look at the details. The location is remarkable. Picturesque, next to a river, at the end of a pretty country lane. The room was large, well appointed and clean. It was a hot day but a fan was provided in the room. The pillows are particularly good, as is the shower. Staff were welcoming and food and drink was tasty and reasonably priced. The place has character, free parking too.

Stayed in the cottages, the mattress was very old and worn out, the property felt like it needed some care.
Both dinner and breakfast were fine but nothing special. Lovely setting but overall will probably look elsewhere next time.
