Rooms were too hot despite turning radiators off. Restaurant food was great but there was a definite need for restaurant/ waitering staff training and reorganising

Beautiful location in a stunning, historic building. Reception staff were very helpful. Rooms and hotel exceptionally clean, cosy and comfortable. Perfect for walking the Viking Way

Breakfast - service was spoiled with too few staff meaning those on rota seemed stressed as it was a busy service. Also, some items had run out and not been replaced (bread rolls, pastries, condiments). It wasn’t a cheap breakfast at £15 a head, hence our disappointment as we had expected everything to be perfect

The history, the architecture, the charm and the location

The atmosphere was lovely. All the staff were excellent. Nothing was too much trouble. A special mention to the lady in the restaurant who had been there for 20 years......she was brilliant! Bed was comfy and loved all the history in the place!

Room was very hot and there was a noise (a low hum) that disturbed our sleep.

The hotel was lovely. Breakfast was good but buffet style when I was expecting a menu with a choice of a hot breakfast. There was plenty though and a choice of cold buffet too with cold meats, cheese, cereals and cakes!

We very much enjoyed our stay. The room was lovely and the staff were very helpful and friendly.

Beautiful property with a fascinating history

The receptionist wasn't all that welcoming and gave us only the very basic information on arrival. We paid for breakfast extra to our room, at at cost of £60 for two mornings I thought was a little over charged for what was on offer.

The historical connection with the 617 Dambusters. Grounds and location where excellent.

Was just a little disappointed with service for breakfast Had a wedding party in and our service appeared to be affected

Stayed in March 2024

Breakfast service very poor, staff made us feel like we were a nuisance asking for a table because they were busy with a wedding party, we were sat down but not notified it was self service , once we got breakfast we waited 10 minutes and went to the waitress and asked if we could have tea and toast , the waitress gave the impression we were bothering them, no interaction just chucked toast and tea down, I then had to fetch our sugar from another table , can’t say we enjoyed eating the breakfast

Been many times and we even got married there so we have good memories

A beautiful building with so much history and character.

Room not upgraded as paid for

Breakfast as good as anything we have had. Room was good but we had paid Booking.com to upgrade us to an executive room and this didn’t happen. A la carte dinner was nice but limited in choice

Amazing building and grounds! Cozy well equipped room. Plenty of parking. Delicious food. Friendly staff and super comfy bed! Slept like a baby.

No mobile phone service--by that is not the Hotel's fault!

Restaurant menu has become very expensive. We opted to go out for dinners. Breakfast service was pretty good; marred only by one fairly unpleasant server (who has been there for many years). The young server was very good. The Terrace Bar Restaurant offers Fillet Medallions, but serves up only the tenderloin tail tip which is a cheat. Otherwise the food was good. The bar staff were very good.

We upgraded our room on arrival for a competitive price and were pleased with the room. Little added touches such as a bath robe and slippers were welcome. Our room was generous in size and the bed was exceptionally comfortable. We had a view of the garden which was lovely. Breakfast was also generous and there was plenty of choice. I am allergic to dairy and the staff ensured that I had oat milk and met all of my dietary needs without it seeming like an effort. There are plenty of places to sit in the hotel if you do not wish to stay in your room; in particular a gorgeous window seat at the top of the stairs above main reception - a perfect place for a cuppa! The hotel itself is in walking distance to the town (0.5 miles). We would highly recommend it.
