Convenient location and lovely staff
The hotel is perfect for a stay if you are going to the Race Circuit.
The staff are really pleasant and helpful.
Breakfast was fab and at only £10 each a real bargain.
There was a nice little bar with a good selection available.
This is an old Manor House, with creaky floors and lots of original detail. We were there 3 nights and feel it offered everything we needed. It’s not the Ritz, but the price reflects that.
Right in the centre of Castle Donington-plenty of private parking.
Will stay again next year.

Quaint but tired.
We tried to check in at 2pm, but no staff was available. We missed out opportunity to tour the Nottingham caves as a result. Room was quaint but tired. Sink space was tiny, water pressure was low.

Tired and needs better management
On arrival my room had no bedding. I was then moved to another room with no bedding as well. The third room I was given had bedding but the heating did not work.
The duvet covers fit the bed correctly but the duvet inside is not the correct size leaving lots of loose material with no duvet inside, which doesnt help when the heating does not work.
The room does not have a secondary method of securely locking the door from the inside.
Other than this the staff were understanding and helpful.

The people were friendly, the food was very good, plenty of free parking. The hotel itself was fine, although our room in the courtyard was rather tired and could do with a makeover and it was impossible to get WiFi in that room. Very conveniently situated for Donington Park race circuit.

TLC required
Enjoyed my stay Hotel has a certain character about it should we say, rooms comfortable and very spacious they are a little tired though really crying out for a good clean and decorate. The satins on the carpet around the toilet just are not right. The staff were brilliant and told us the intention is to redecorate and give the place some TLC. Do this and you would get 5 stars from me.

Room had cobwebs and dead flies all over the sash windows that has obviously been there for some time. Disgusting. When complained room was changed immediately. Will never stay there again as a result that the management, cleaning management and staff think that it is acceptable to even offer the room in the standard.

Desperately needs a refurb
Room looked like it was last refurbished in the 70s. Smelled of damp. Very old toilet flush would get stuck. No wifi reception. On a positive side I arrived very late and the night receptionist was friendly and helpful.

Beautiful quirky hotel
We had a lovely two night stay. A beautiful pet friendly hotel. Some gorgeous vintage pieces in the hotel. The staff were all helpful & friendly. The room was clean, spacious and nicely decorated with huge private bathroom, we even had a balcony off the bedroom/living area. The room had everything we needed. A few parts around the hotel could do with a bit of a "touch up" here & there but all in all we had a lovely stay and enjoyed all the quirky features like the trouser press & patterned bathroom suite.

Hotel is currently undergoing a major renovation and is no position to offer paying customers any level of service. No restuarant or bar open. Had i have known this before, i would not have booked to stay here. As i checked out there was a massive leak of water into reception!

OK but ...
Booked a standard King with ensuite, but was given a converted meeting room. Double bed was old and lumpy, pillow flat and lumpy. No ensuite, no dressing table, no wardrobes or chest of drawers - 2 clothes rails with 3 hangers - 1 bedside table. No curtains and the blinds at the front were defective. Very little effort has been made to make the meeting room actually feel like a bedroom. Kitchen extractor fan very noisy. On the plus side, we had access to the courtyard for the dogs, the manager and maintenance man were very helpful and friendly. Breakfast was good.

Car Park is too small for hotel, restaurant was closed, check in was chaos, shower was pathetic, TV did not work in room. It would have been nice to get an email or text telling us the restaurant was closed, it was being used for a private event. There was a busy event locally so none of the other restaurants had tables and we didn't want to drive elsewhere because we would lose our parking spot. Very stressful stay. Will never use this hotel again.
