Lovely room excellent staff - great breakfast - couldn’t fault it!

Central location

1.0 / 10.0

Terrible.

Location and breakfast.

Staff inattentive, miserable, very poor service all round from check in to leaving. Dirty mattress in the car park, glass broken in the window in the room, bathroom radiator filthy looked like urine stains. Holes were filled in on the walls and not painted looked shabby. Wardrobe nob fell off in hand when opened. Was asked to call the night porter to gain access after 11pm which we did at 11:55 he was rude as we had woken him up, came down to let us in wearing just boxer shorts and didn’t speak just stormed off ahead of us.

Disappointing

Breakfast was lovely.

Room and furniture were very tired. Pillows were old and lumpy. Windows were mouldy. Bed was horrible.

5.0 / 10.0

Not great but not bad enough to warrant a complaint during the stay.

Staff were great

The room was across a flooded car park. The room was claustrophobic and over hot even with windows open. It all seemed a bit ‘tired’ and in need of an update.

9.0 / 10.0

A great choice for a pre Christmas stay away.

We loved the characterful room across the courtyard to the Inn. The dining room was lovely for both dinner and breakfast. Evening meal was delicious and relaxed.

There was nothing we didn't like.

8.0 / 10.0

Ideal for an overnight stay in Oakham.

The pub is ideally located in Oakham town centre. The rooms have recently been tastefully upgraded. The dining and bar areas are comfortable with open fires. All staff were friendly, helpful and responsive. There was an interesting breakfast menu and portions were very generous.

It was difficult to find the car park without specific instructions and post code from the pub staff. Whilst the room was very comfortable, the door didn't feel very secure and you felt somewhat exposed to people looking in and so it was necessary to have the curtains closed the whole time.

8.0 / 10.0

Comfortable once we found the car park which was not easy.

Location

The car park is very difficult to access , in a courtyard at the back of the building.

Good value just needs a little more attention to detail to be really good.

Great location and nice bar and restaurant. Dinner and Breakfast was superb. Staff service and attitudes variable in bar but serving staff really good both dinner and breakfast.

Car Park was tricky to find … room was chilly as Radiator needed bleeding so got screwdriver from car and bled radiator … radiator in bathroom didn’t work at all but main one, once bled was sufficient

10.0 / 10.0

Cosy, comfortable and welcoming.

Lovely period property with the rooms in character with the building, it was clean with quality bedding and condiments, breakfast was also a highlight. Not a dealbreaker, but the TV worked and it was big enough to see, and there was parking on site. The pub was also lovely inside with a great choice of food and drinks and a cosy atmosphere.

It was all great.

Lovely location pub was great, very disappointed with the room.

Hotel was located perfectly, The pub was lovely and welcoming, all the staff were great. Great breakfast.

Rooms were not clean and very disappointing. Cob webs, grout missing and a filthy fan just a few things to mention. Not sure if there was a staff room above our room but there was loud creaking floorboards from people walking around before 6am

7.0 / 10.0

Food was excellent, staff were lovely just need to sort blinds in bedroom.

Central and staff really helpful

Our room was at the front of the property it didn’t have black out blinds and the street light shine in the room all night.

3.0 / 10.0

Food and service were great but.....

The food and service were excellent. Made to feel welcome and management were at pains to confirm closing time and an emphasis of keeping noise and fuss to a minimum.

The room was above the bar and overlooking High Street so you'd expect some noise. Given the point made by management earlier it would be alright, right? However, when an owner of the venue decides to reopen the bar, play loud music and hold loud conversations to rise above the music and continuing until way past midnight could be construed as quite inconsiderate to paying guests. The room and bathroom itself were large enough. The bathroom didn't have a bath (not made clear so best to check) and the shower, whilst hot, lacked power. The room itself was not as a good a standard I'd have expected for the price asked.

Ok - could have been much better with a decent matress and better sleep

Great location , very nice evening food but portions on the small side for the price paid . Great breakfast as always .

The room I’ve stayed in a couple of times most recently Dec 25 on a business trip . The mattress is old and was uncomfortable . Made noises when in bed sounded like old springs disturbed sleep .

Great team, wonderful breakfast, friendly and good location

I’m a light sleeper and a room in the front was noisy for me, but others may be fine

Lovely country hotel. Need to sort parking issues.

The location is perfect, shops and restaurants on your doorstep. The hotel has a lovely vibe. Warm , friendly and cosy with the roaring fire. Our room was small but comfortable. The shower was great. All the staff were very friendly.

We arrived at 3pm to be told there were no parking spaces! We had to park the car out at the front of the hotel in a one hour parking rule only. We had to keep nipping out to make sure we did not receive a parking ticket! A parking space did not become available in the hotel car park, we were lucky we did not get a parking fine ! You do state free parking and that’s what your guests should receive. Breakfast took 40 minutes to arrive. It was just warm and dried up… looked like it had been left under heat for too long which was a shame because it would of been delicious had we received it when it was freshly cooked.

Overall a good stay but in my optinion the negatives need to be addressed which took the shine off a well managed hotel

Location decor staff and food all great

Room was cold only a towel radiator for warmth and with no curtains the blind gave no protection from the high street lights

Our stay was lovely, relaxing and great food.

The location in the centre of Oakham was ideal. We were in rooms to the back of the building so it was really quiet. James and the other staff were very welcoming and professional. The food was really good. We had dinner and breakfast and both were equally tasty.

Room bring on the front street meant our room and bathroom were overlooked - frosted glass or screens that still allowed natural light would have been good
