Reviews and Ratings
The hotel rooms were well decorated with good-size bathrooms, although the one I stayed in had a problem with the shower. The breakfast was offered at a more affordable price, which was a plus. However, the noise from other guests late at night didn't fit the hotel's business-oriented image.
My stay at the hotel was overall pleasant. The rooms were a bit noisy and not as spacious or comfortable as I had hoped, especially considering the higher range rooms. The service was exceptional, with staff being very helpful and accommodating. The location was ideal for my visit to Nottingham University but was somewhat affected by noisy guests at times. The dining experience left much to be desired, with some disappointing food options.
I had a fantastic stay at the hotel in a beautiful location. The room was of excellent standard with an amazing shower and a huge, very comfortable bed. However, there were some periodic noises from the air conditioning unit. The service was welcoming and attentive, quickly sorting us with the right room. The location was perfect, within the Parkland of the university campus. The dining experience was a bit limited, but everything else was great. The facilities were well-maintained and enjoyable.
I had a pleasant stay at the hotel. The 'executive' room I stayed in was spacious and well-equipped, and I even got breakfast at a discounted rate. However, the handle of the kettle in my room was broken, and the temperature was slightly cool. The service, although friendly and apologetic, could have been more professional. On the positive side, the hotel's location was perfect for my needs, clean, modern, and well-planned, allowing for nice walks. The dining experience was fantastic, especially with a great selection of gluten-free options. Overall, a good value for money stay.
The hotel is in a lovely location, making it a peaceful and delightful base within easy walking distance of Wollaton Hall. The rooms were clean, quiet, and dark with the curtains closed, although a bit small with no shelving for clothes. The staff were all very helpful and pleasant, while the dining experience offered nice options but felt a bit like a scrum at times. Overall a great location with friendly service but could improve some room amenities and dining organization.
The hotel offered immaculately clean, spacious, and warm rooms, but facing issues like not being able to wash hands or brush teeth can be quite disappointing. The management should pay more attention to guest comfort. Despite this, the cozy rooms were a highlight.
The hotel's location is convenient for events and visits, while the rooms could use some updates but offer a spacious and clean stay. The service is attentive and polite, though improvements on communication are needed. Dining options are decent but could be simplified for a better experience.
The hotel is centrally located on the university campus, offering good, clean, and comfortable rooms with air conditioning. The service was efficient and friendly. The location is excellent, bordering a beautiful park and gardens area, perfect for walking. The dining experience was great with a varied menu. Overall, a peaceful place with pleasant grounds for a stay.
