Reviews and Ratings
I had a cozy stay at this hotel. The rooms, though a bit small, were well-designed and perfect for a comfortable stay. The location is in a quiet area, the bed was comfy, the shower was great, and the staff was pleasant. It was clean and offered good value for money.
The hotel offers spacious and characterful rooms, but the bedding is dated, and the bed was uncomfortably high off the ground. The service is consistently friendly and welcoming, with the owner personally ensuring high-quality mattresses. The location is ideal for various activities, though it may be challenging to reach via public transport. The dining options are good, with a buffet style that offers a variety of choices. The hotel provides a charming and atmospheric experience in a former estate village.
The hotel was wonderful with lovely rooms featuring a four-poster bed and a jacuzzi bath. However, it was a bit disappointing to find dark, dusty cobwebs that seemed neglected for weeks. The service was excellent upon arrival and during lunch, with courteous and helpful staff. The location was ideal, especially for visitors to Rugby and Coventry, offering a hearty breakfast and a chance to dine in the cozy pub. The dining experience was delicious, and the hotel also provided free parking and WiFi. Overall, a great stay with a few minor drawbacks.
