The hotel itself was lovely - it's a very good wedding venue. Small things could improve the room i.e. The mirror in the bathroom was far too high ( I could only see above my eyebrows ) I had to ask for a glass for the bathroom., The full length mirror on the back of the door was little use because the desk was so close to it that you could only stand approximately 6 inches away There was no mirror at all above the desk - this could be easily remedied. When you are going to a wedding at the venue I'm surprised that such small but obvious things were overlooked.

Check-in was excellent, very pleasant and helpful receptionist, I had completed the electronic check-in prior to arrival. Breakfast is excellent and starts at 07:00hr which is a major bonus when visiting Donington Circuit as Driver briefings tend to commence circa 08:00hr. Evening meals in the restaruant are acceptable, the menu could do with more fish and vegetarian options. The restaurant staff are very pleasant and helpful.

The rooms could do with a refresh. Certain items are a little tired and perhaps past their sell-by date. However, the rooms are clean and comfortable.

We love the hotel, it is in a beautiful setting, the cottages are dog friendly and have easy access to outside. The bed was super comfy. Bathroom was excellent with great shower, and complimentary toiletries. We loved the Derbyshire tourist book to get ideas of where to go. Our second time back here and would certainly recommend.

The only thing is that their was a wedding in the house which didn’t bother us at all until it was pick up time at midnight, there were lots of cars and people coming and going for about an hour, people shouting outside, which upset our dogs, so may just a heads up that there was a wedding during our stay we could have prepared for it. But other than this it was great!

I'm reluctant to leave such a great review because this is the best kept secret in the Midlands and I don't want everyone booking up all the rooms! I absolutely love it here. The location is exquisite. The food is superb. The staff are fantastic. I just can't fault it. And when I say the price is incredible, you'd be a fool not to try it. (Please don't put the prices up though, management). The river ambling alongside the property is so tranquil, the history is intriguing. It's actually located in the hamlet of King's Newton. How cute is that? I will stay here whenever I can as long as the quality stays the same and the prices don't go up too much. Lol. I used to think that about Whittlebury Spa in Northampton and then literally everyone and their aunty went flooding there and I haven't been back since. We were crammed in like sardines and the service went downhill. So, yeah, this place is amazing. But don't book all the rooms when I want to go please!

The only thing that I can think of, which is a bit petty I suppose, is that I got skinny fries with my burger (which wasn't cheap) and I was hoping for chunky homemade chips. But, hey, I'm not mad l!

Friendly staff, I feel they do go above and beyond to make your stay the best that it can be. Dog friendly. Very clean room. The hotel was spotlessly clean. The drive down and the area are very picturesque Best shower Best scrambled eggs There are plenty of options for breakfast and the fact that you can decide how much or little you want so there is no waste is a great idea. Great grounds for walking the dog. Overlooking the river Trent We will definitely be booking again. It is an old building and yes it is tired looking in places and going on old reviews some people just don't appreciate that these buildings take some looking after and the owners are doing their best, therefore I feel they have priced it right. It is architecturally amazing.

Old carpet (stains) in the room but it was hovered well. Coffee at breakfast was not palatable at all but they did bring me peppermint tea when I asked.

The room was a great size, it was lovely and warm. The staff were very friendly and made is feel right at home. This place has beautiful rooms, the decor is stunning and very tasteful. It was warm, clean and had everything we needed. Beautiful little place 5 minute drive from the airport. Will definitely be using it again before our flights.

I'm aware the rooms are old and the odd creaky floorboard is part of the charm but it was pretty much every floorboard the creaked and we almost didn't want to move around at all so that we didn't disturb the guest below us. I'm not sure what's involved in amending this but if it's possible then I think that'd be a much welcomed change as I can't imagine it was great for the people below when we were moving around to leave at 5am, even when we tiptoed. It wouldn't put us off staying again but I thought it was worth mentioning for the comfort of the guest both in the room and below.

The Executive Suit was massive, very clean. Access was fine for me, but climbing 2 fights of a circular staircase may be a challenge to guests with restricted mobility. View from the room at the top of the tower was very nice. Breakfast served from 07:00hr, which suited my race schedule, very good selection with vegetarian option to the cooked breakfast. Evening meals of a good standard with very nice staff in the bar area. My activities in the area were based at Donington Race Circuit, and for this the hotel location is excellent, circa 12mins.

The hotel decor is a little tired and dated, but conversly you could say it adds to the 'charm/character'.

Great location, nice room, lovely communal areas to sit with a drink and as weather was good we spent the early evening outside the bar before dinner which was really peaceful and had great views of the old mill workings and the river Had food there, which was good quality and a reasonable selection, also had breakfast which was cooked to order and again, good selection well presented. The staff in the restaurant for both evening and breakfast were great, really welcoming and entertaining to talk to

Nothing to not like this trip

We had a fantastic experience during our stay! The surroundings were stunning, and we enjoyed taking a leisurely walk along the river. Our visit was centered around the world superbikes, and it was an incredible experience! The biking track was a short drive away, and we were warmly welcomed. The dining and drinks were exceptional! The bartender was delightful, attentive, and engaging, while the waiter was polite and pleasantly surprised us by pouring our drinks. The rooms were charming, and having a bath was a delightful bonus! Overall, our stay was wonderful, and we are looking forward to returning next year!

Easy to find, sign posted. Set in a beautiful location Riverside , really picturesque. Nice entrance into reception. Helpful and polite staff.Plenty of free parking. Very quite and peaceful. Easy access to airports and local town castle donnington. Good strong WiFi. Overall.... a nice stay.

Stayed in an executive standard suite. Room was slightly outdated. TV was big enough for the room but could do with an upgrade ( not a smart TV, couldn't access any netflix ,amazon prime etc). There was no information pack or any details about what the hotel offers. No indication of any menus for the resturant or bar. Bathroom also could be updated slightly. Silicon showing signs of failure and tiles need regrouting.
