Reviews and Ratings
When I arrived, the rooms smelt a bit musty and seemed a bit dated and tired. The bed was on the small side, and breakfast felt rushed, with cold toast and quick-to-cool coffee. The staff didn't check if everything was satisfactory, which was a letdown.
The hotel overlooks Main Street and could benefit from some redecorating but offers a great location in the town center. The rooms, although smaller than expected from the website photos, are clean and comfortable. The service is friendly and welcoming, and the hotel presents excellent parking facilities. The dining experience is decent, though a bit overpriced. Overall, a traditional inn with potential for improvements.
My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms, though a bit dated, were tidy and clean, resembling the ones shown during booking. The service was top-notch with very friendly and helpful staff. The location was excellent, being centrally located with convenient parking. However, the dining options were limited, and the staff's demeanor was not the most welcoming. Overall, a decent stay with some room for improvement.
Upon entering the hotel, I noticed a musty smell and the lack of a telephone in the room was inconvenient in case we needed assistance from reception. The breakfast service felt rushed, with cold toast and coffee served before our English breakfast. The staff didn't check on our satisfaction, and the tired decor could use a refresh. While nicely appointed, the stay was marred by a lack of heating and a grubby bar.
I had a pleasant stay at the hotel, with clean and cozy rooms and extremely helpful and understanding staff. The location was convenient, and the dining options were decent though slightly overpriced. The facilities met my expectations, providing a comfortable experience overall.
The hotel is centrally located right on the main high street, offering easy access to shops, bars, and restaurants. The rooms, although a bit musty upon entering, provided a budget-friendly stay. The breakfast service felt rushed with cold toast and coffee served before the English breakfast, which affected our overall satisfaction.
The hotel is located away from the main building, and despite the helpful staff, I will not return. The room had everything we needed like storage, an iron and board, and a bath, but it was so hot it was impossible to sleep.
Upon early arrival, the desk receptionist was very nice, and the bed was very comfy. The dining room was a bit small, leading to a rushed breakfast experience. The hotel could benefit from redecorating, including the public areas.
The hotel is conveniently located on the main street to the lovely town of Market Harborough, making it easy to find. The rooms were a bit disappointing as they smelled badly of damp and were very dated, but the service was friendly and helpful. The dining experience was really tasty and served quickly, and the location is right in the center of town. However, the hotel needs a good bit of work in terms of room maintenance. Despite the downsides, the good food and central location make it a decent option for visitors.
The hotel is conveniently located for exploring Market Harborough, with free parking and easy access to bars and restaurants. The rooms could use some updating, especially during breakfast time due to limited space despite having a fan running. The staff seem aware of issues, attributing them to third-party commissions, impacting costs and overall service quality.
