I stayed with my best friend on the freetime Friday deal, which was dinner bed and breakfast for £125. We also received £20 towards a spa treatment of our choice. Overall we had a good time but that is because we enjoy one another's company, would I go again, unlikely, I have been here a few times before and for... more

Management response from
Philip Cox, General Manager

The Restaurant at Sopwell is an AA rosetted fine dining restaurant and is priced to compete with other similar restaurants in the local area. All of our produce is of an extremely high quality, the majority of which is sourced from local suppliers in order to guarantee freshness and provenance. In addition to The Restaurant we offer a number of...

Attended a friend's wedding and stayed two nights. It's a lovely hotel, but we received an unwanted wake-up call at 6am on the morning after the wedding! Brought it to the attention of the staff and they promised someone would get back to me. General manager phoned to say that it was nothing to do with them as 'we all... more

Management response from
Philip Cox, General Manager

Thank you for your positive comments about your recent stay at Sopwell and I apologise that you had a poor experience when dealing with the previous general manager. I took over the reins as General Manager towards the end of October and I hope that you have the opportunity to return to Sopwell in the near future. Philip Cox

Lovely location, spa excellent (just needs some attention in the ladies shower area and the sauna showers), room wonderful and the food was outstanding. Really good value for money. Excellent treatments carried out by attentive staff. more

We have stayed in central London in and are disillusioned by overpriced accommodation and indifferent staff. We decided to try this Hotel a year ago because it had a pool and the reviews were good. We have just completed our second stay and wish to thank the Management and all the Staff for making our short stay so pleasant. As... more

Accomodation is perfectly acceptable and you get what you pay for, however, the Hotel appears to focus more on large groups such as weddings, hen parties having spa days, and football teams. The Spa facilities are generally good but the Hotel seems to have a pack them in philosphy leading to overcrowding and noise. The ladies changing rooms needed a... more

Very relaxing hotel, lovely pool area with huge amount of loungers. Plenty of people reading books then walking through to brasserie in their spa robes. Pleasant grounds, plenty of space for running around. Food was very good however the service in the restaurant was absolutely dreadful. When raised with front of house they could not care less. Room functional and... more

Sopwell House was a huge disapointment for me and my girlfriend. Had heard good things about it and website made it out to look great but on visit it was a let-down. Set in beautiful grounds no doubt, but the interior is like something out of faulty towers. I can see why it USED to be where international football teams... more

My wife and I arrived on the 15th exhaused from our flight from the US. The first thing that impressed us was that there was a uniformed porter to carry our bags at 11 p.m. Then my wife fell in love with the fragrance of the bedlinen and towels , so much so that she had to compliment housekeeping the... more
