Good food.

Very few other guests. ##### Jane Stayed 6 nights in Sep 2023 ### 4/10 Poor #### Sara 26 May 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service Disliked: Room comfort #### Not good Understanding the hotel is in a 400 year old building and not wanting to sound like an entitled American. The hot water didn’t work none not a drop, that being said the beds sucked felt like I was on a box spring. Now that said the staff was grate and the food was good the location is amazing. We did however have a grate view of the roof top with old broken ironing boards and an old painting that was crumbling in the rain. The place has issues and not at all worth the price we paid ##### Sara Stayed 1 night in May 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### phil 29 Jul 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Value for money Value for money ! Ok the hotel shows its age in places, but our room was very clean, the bathroom had recently been refitted and was excellent The manager "Sam" could not of been more helpful and friendly Highly recommend the Indian restaurant, which is partnof the hotel, probably the best curry I've every had ! ##### phil Stayed 1 night in Jul 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Frank 18 May 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities I don't understand why the previous reviews were so negative. I've stayed in various hotels all over the world and this one was perfectly fine. Room was clean, bed comfy, bathroom clean and power shower worked great. Manager didn't speak great English, but once we got chatting, he turned out to be a really nice guy. ##### Frank Stayed 2 nights in May 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Sharon 14 Aug 2023 Liked: Room comfort Disliked: Property conditions & facilities #### adequate the hotel needs updating, the rooms were ok but require a little bit of tidying up, paint finger prints on inside bathroom door, cracked tile in bathroom, paint and finishing on walls needs addressing. indian meal amazing, breakfast ok. there needs to be someone in the check in area / bar at all times, i think it loses a lot of trade with there being no one there to greet public. all in all i would give hotel 5/10 indian meal 10/10 kev Lake Leicester ##### Sharon Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2023 ### 4/10 Poor #### Nigel 18 Aug 2023 Liked: Cleanliness Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities The service was poor with the hotel needing more staff. The breakfast was amateurish and the cooked bit was luke warm. The towels were still damp. This is the first hotel which I have had to remember to lock the room door. The room itself was a contrast - the bathroom was excellent but the room itself was dowdy. The corridor to the room was dirty and scruffy. The evening meal was fine. ##### Nigel Stayed 1 night in Aug 2023 ### 4/10 Poor #### Ian 22 Aug 2023 #### Poor Service Ordered a curry from restaurant. It took over 5 minutes to arrive. Pappadoms were soggy. No mango chutney. Yes really, no mango chutney. Chicken tikka was more like a jalfrezi. Biryani was.......anythng but a Biryani (this was left over vegetables, chopped up and thrown in a raw hot sauce). Truly ghastly. We should refused to pay for it. God knows why we did pay. Room was OK ish. Service was appalling (clueless in fact). Shower was very good. Overall.....rather disappointing. I would have expected better from a Schooner Hotel. ##### Ian Stayed 1 night in Aug 2023 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Etrop Grange Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Manchester-Hotels-Etrop-Grange.h49116.Hotel-Information) > > [Lakeside Lodge with 6 berth hot tub and private fishing peg](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Lincoln-Hotels-Delightful-Lakeside-Lodge-With-Hot-Tub-Private-Fishing-Peg-With-Stunning-View.h27123912.Hotel-Information) > > [Delta Hotels by Marriott Warwick](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Warwick-Hotels-M40-J15-Warwick-Hotel.h10444.Hotel-Information) > > [Newton Hall Courtyard Rooms](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Alnwick-Hotels-Courtyard-Rooms.h96173019.Hotel-Information) > > [Wychnor Park Country Club](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Burton-On-Trent-Hotels-Wychnor-Park-Country-Club.h1927715.Hotel-Information) > > [Ox Hotel Manchester](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Manchester-Hotels-Milton-Manchester-Hotel.h18787802.Hotel-Information) > > [Cambridge Belfry Hotel & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cambridge-Hotels-Cambridge-Belfry.h1103020.Hotel-Information) > > [Cheltenham Chase Hotel & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cheltenham-Hotels-Delta-By-Marriott-Cheltenham-Chase-Hotel.h9657.Hotel-Information) > > [The Derwent Manor Boutique Hotel ](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Consett-Hotels-The-Derwent-Manor-Boutique-Hotel.h9535.Hotel-Information) > > [Old Colliery Cottage](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Alnwick-Hotels-2-Bedroom-Accommodation-In-Shilbottle.h92312684.Hotel-Information) > > [Northlands Farm & Lakes](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Chichester-Hotels-Northlands-Farm-Lakes-Premium-Chalet-1.h37797465.Hotel-Information) > > [Cave Hotel & Golf Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Faversham-Hotels-Cave-Hotel-Golf-Resort.h33410673.Hotel-Information) > > [The Pepper Pot](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Alnwick-Hotels-The-Pepper-Pot.h70030029.Hotel-Information) > > [Caverswall Castle](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Stoke-On-Trent-Hotels-Caverswall-Castle.h23959535.Hotel-Information) > > [Luxury caravan at Butlins Skegness](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Skegness-Hotels-Luxury-Caravan-At-Butlins-Skegness.h36376338.Hotel-Information) > > [The New French Partridge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Northampton-Hotels-The-New-French-Partridge.h2288818.Hotel-Information) > > [The Tankerville Arms](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Alnwick-Hotels-Tankerville-Arms.h34500811.Hotel-Information) > > [Rock Lobster - a family friendly that sleeps 8 guests in 4 bedrooms](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Alnwick-Hotels-Rock-Lobster-A-Family-Friendly-That-Sleeps-8-Guests-In-4-Bedrooms.h72503106.Hotel-Information) > > [DoubleTree by Hilton Manchester Airport](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Manchester-Hotels-DoubleTree-By-Hilton-Manchester-Airport.h26104.Hotel-Information) > > [Urban Beach Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bournemouth-Hotels-Urban-Beach-Hotel.h2814369.Hotel-Information) > > [The Dunstanburgh Castle Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Alnwick-Hotels-The-Dunstanburgh-Castle-Hotel.h110484638.Hotel-Information) > > [De Vere Tortworth Court](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bristol-Hotels-De-Vere-Tortworth-Court.h570412.Hotel-Information) > > [Splash Landings Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Stoke-On-Trent-Hotels-Splash-Landings-Hotel.h1160988.Hotel-Information) > > [Pine Lake Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Carnforth-Hotels-Pine-Lake-Resort.h1928661.Hotel-Information) > > [Bredbury Hall by Accor](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Stockport-Hotels-Bredbury-Hall.h64706.Hotel-Information) > > [Saltmoore](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Whitby-Hotels-Raithwaite-Sandsend.h4276816.Hotel-Information) > > [Delta Hotels by Marriott Colchester](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Colchester-Hotels-Delta-Hotels-By-Marriott-Colchester.h14251.Hotel-Information) > > [DoubleTree by Hilton Stoke on Trent](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Stoke-On-Trent-Hotels-DoubleTree-By-Hilton-Stoke-On-Trent.h6788.Hotel-Information) > > [Makeney Hall Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Belper-Hotels-Makeney-Hall-Hotel.h1206529.Hotel-Information) ---
