“About right for the town.”

Reviewed 10 June 2013

A bit of a mixed bag this one as I will try to explain. We stayed at this hotel midweek and were walking the Rutland Round and so arrived on foot and therefore cannot comment about the car parking arrangements. We had booked a twin room and on checking in were given the key to "Old Berkley" in the rear... More

“Disgusted”

Reviewed 16 May 2013

A wonderful birthday present ruined by a money grabbing hotel. A night away with afternoon tea was booked through Super Breaks for two people.

“Great Sunday Roast”

Reviewed 26 April 2013

We didnt actually stay at this hotel but just stopped here for their special Sunday Roast one evening. Must say, we were very impressed with what we had. The bar served the local Oakham Brewery Ale and the bar / restaurant areas had a great atmosphere.
