Rating & Review Keseluruhan Darrington Hotel by Greene King Inns

Sunday lunch could be better,breakfast good.

The hotel was isolated. It was very quiet at evening times so would not like to sit in the bar more or less by ourselves. No access to Sky Sports ( which Greene King is well known for) so we travelled to other venues. It is a lovely hotel and bar but only for those who like a really quiet time.

Great service and no problems with parking etc

It's a pity because the building is nice and has character, like the bar/dining area. The staff were nice and the food was good. But the bedroom... All 4 doors to access the bedrooms were dirty in the area where ppl push them open. Our door, which was hard ro open, looked like it had been prised open and no-one had bothered to repair it. The room looked nice at a first glance, but then I saw the walls were dirty, TV aerial cable was dangling from the wall socket, not plugged in to the TV, bathroom extractor fan didn't work, toilet seat was wrong size and a dirty hand soap dispenser on the wall was empty, but another one with soap in was lying on the side. See photos. Again, it's a pity because a bit of attention could make the place look if not good, at least minimum standards. I get the impression that someone managing the place has a no f12ks given attitude towards the place. I pay the same and less to stay in clean presentable hotels which also have children's breakfast included.

Rooms decorated nicely although a bit tired looking. Staff very friendly. Bathroom had not been cleaned properly, hair still in the shower and sink and an awful stain running down the side of the sink. Room was advertised as having a rainfall shower, I received a room with a tiny broken shower head that was leaking so badly there was no pressure, it was also far too low, I’m 6ft and I had to bend down to shower. You can also hear all the noise from the corridor as there are large gaps in the door.

Was a lovely hotel with lovely staff in a nice location, I do like the kings inn hotels but admittedly the bathroom wasn’t very clean nor modern and it did smell a little, but it was still good for the price we paid to stay there. The bed was comfortable and we had a sleep without any disturbances. Also breakfast was nice, and the bar maids were very nice and it was very calm and chilled to sit and have a drink in the evening.

Convenient, clean

Staff at breakfast didn’t seem overly bothered that we had to keep asking for bread, milk, plates etc

Check out on the Hotels.com website says 12:00 noon check out but its 11:00 am, main carpets need cleaning and a little paint in the room wouldn't go a miss Toilet takes required to pump the flush. TV signal on and off. Would stay again even though a few minor points.also first time ever I've seen a insect trap in the room at the side of the Bed and I've travelled the world.

Enjoyed my stay overnight and food was nice my only issue was there was no hot water at the night or next morning

Bathroom in the bedroom was dirty, roof peeling black mold around shower. Picture frame in main bedroom broken and sharp edge. Staircase is missing a spindle which is surely against the law with risk of a child falling through. Banister outside broken and unsafe. All outside area dirty rubbish blowing around seating area at front of pub dirty tables & manus in pub area. The best thing about the pub is the manager who was on shift Saturday day / night.

Great location friendly staff, great breakfast

Lovley hotel the staff were very friendly,

The darrington is a lovely upbeat place to stay the decor is in line with the place and building itself just right. The pub within the building is great the staff are always helpful even when the bar is full and busy. A pleasant place to stay.

Fantastic staff gave a great welcome from reception to the bar team. Room was brilliant really spacious, clean and comfortable. Food was brilliant with friendly and attentive staff

Friendly staff, however I feel sorry for them working in an establishment that as had no investment or upkeep for a long time. Our room was very tired, the bathroom was dusty, mold in the shower and the ceiling was in great need of attention, the corridor was smelly. Shame on a company like Greene King not to take more care of one of its establishment.

Very happy with my stay. Molly was very helpful.

All good no problems

Quick trip to the area. Hotel was very handy for where i needed to be. Plenty of free parking.. check in lady was great. Room was fine. A bit chilly but the heating soon sorted that. Neighbours were a pain in the rear end. Noisy at 1am. Not the fault of the hotel of course. Had dinner on site. Reasonably priced and very nice. Breakfast was included and was great. Key drop check out. Will i use this one again. Definitely yes.

How quiet the hotel was after the bar closd for the night.
