Overall Ratings & Reviews The Lawns Hotel

The room I was allocated was sub standard. The bathroom was an old avocado suite style with rusty plugs and was damp. Lack of plug sockets close to a mirror made it hard to get ready in the morning. Very thin walls - I could hear my neighbours every move. Ridiculously hot as well despite the window being open and fan going. Very disappointing.

Lovely stay during download festival, very welcoming, great breakfast and comfy bed

It was ok for a 1 night stay

We use the Hotel for BSB (British Super Bike) 15mins if Traffic is kind. Staff are 5* Food and service 5* The Salmon and I had the Bacon 🍔 WOW!! Reasonably priced. Bedroom adequate for our needs. Just a wee nit pick. Room 10. The Shower needed to be held as just needed a wee tighten up. Lovely Continental Breakfast. Keep up the good work. We are back in September. The bar is bouncing Saturday Evening. As noise doesn't bother us. Not a problem.

Nice pub

Although the room was very clean it was a little tired. The staff were very friendly and helpful, couldnt do enough for you. We had an evening meal and also the continental breakfast both of which were excellent. Would definitely stay here again

Staff very friendly & went out of their way to help. Room could do with updating but still clean.

Handy for town Used to visit family. Good food

Without sugar coating it, it was a filthy room, staff were great, food was nice, but the room looked nothing like the pictures online! Mouldy bathroom, and i was above the woman's toilets so i constantly heard the hand dryer going up until midnight.

Lovely Hotel/Bar.. Area.. Clean room for our stop over for The British Superbike at Donington. Daniel was very helpful. The Breakfast Staff. And the Bar Staff again. Nothing was to much trouble. Will be back next season.

Room was very small. Just wide enough for the double bed. Not enough room for a real door on the bathroom, just a sliding panel with no handle. Pillow had a plastic liner of some sort, so i awoke at 4am with damp hair and didnt go back to sleep. At 6am wafts if smoke started to come in the room from people smoking outside. Shower good. Breakfast good. Car parking spaces not wide enough for my car.

We only stayed one night but we were impressed by the friendliness of the staff, the excellent food and the evening entertainment. The bedrooms are looking a little tired but were overall clean and comfortable.

I cancelled the booking on Thursday. Apparently they still intend to charge me full price despite me giving nearly 3 days notice let alone 24 hours. I wouldn’t use them again ever. And I have used them many times before.

Very friendly staff. It is a pub so noisy 'till about 23pm. Car park safe and shops close by, 2min walk.

All round fine for one night.

The hotel has a very loud karaoke on the night we stayed. The room was shaking from the noise vibrations. Water was too hot and the room smelled of the bathroom throughout

Not a bad hotel, just a very tired room. The room was above the beer garden so if I opened the window smoke came in and pointless loud talking from an old fella.

No air con , couldn’t sit on the toilet because sink was in the way. Not clean , room was boiling

aphazard parking by others made parking difficult on arrival. Maybe car park lines need to be redone? Interesting that it’s called the Lawns when there wasn’t a lawn? Wasn’t clear where to go to book in, but was ushered inside by helpful person having a drink outside. Was shown quickly to my room by helpful member of staff. Room was clean and tidy and looked recently refurbished. Nice modern shower room. New hard flooring looked nice but needed attention to detail (gaps between planks). Carpet was worn and had threads pulled from it. Bed looked welcoming, but when I sat on it, it was rock hard and the edges of the mattress were higher than the centre. Maybe could benefit from a new mattress? Lots of pillow choice, however, one of the pillow cases I had a tear in it. Door to shower room kept half closing, so I walked into it a few times as I went into the room and turned round to come out again. The shower cubicle was spacious and clean. New wiring in the wardrobe on view. When I returned in the evening (Saturday night, 10.15) music was playing to guests outside the pub, which finished before midnight. My room was on the back of the building, but it could be heard. Continental breakfast was cereal, toast and jam/marmalade/marmite, a croissant and a pain au chocolate, orange or apple juice and a cup of tea or coffee. Breakfast took place in the bar, maybe because of renovations? Staff friendly and welcoming.

Staff very friendly food was delicious and the sleep was good
