1/1 found this review helpful

Booked through bookings.com my stay was for one night to attend a friend's birthday celebrations out on the town that Saturday night.

The Regent is conveniently situated, being about 15 minutes walk from the railway station and bus station (or a short taxi ride if you don't know the way or have lots of luggage). It is also about 15 minutes walk from the racecourse, and only a few minutes walk from the the town's 'nightlife'.

Check-in was quick, friendly and efficient, and I was offered help with my bags, a wake-up call, and a newspaper in the morning (although I declined all three).

I had a single room, no.41, and if returning I would look to request the same room as it was at the end of a series of corridors and not therefore likely to suffer too badly from the noise of inconsiderate people returning to their rooms during the wee small hours that other reviewers have mentioned.

I arrived at 8pm and to be honest there was a lot of noise coming from one of the downstairs bars, but by midnight the noise had reduced considerably - no more music just some conversation which soon also died down.

I didn't have an evening meal there as I didn't have time (though I used to live in Doncaster and have eaten there previously on several occasions and enjoyed the food).

On the occasion of my visit there did seem to be a problem with breakfast service, which was supposed to be available from 0800 on the Sunday morning.

Although the cereals, fruit, and fruit juice were available at this time the tea/coffee arrived at about 0810 and the hot buffet items just after 0815. This resulted in the buffet breakfast service turning into a bit of an unseemly scrum unfortunately.

Maybe it was a one-off due to someone turning up for work late or not turning in at all, I would hope it isn't a regular problem.

In summary, I found the hotel to be clean and the staff friendly and efficient. I would stay there again if I was in Doncaster because of its convenient location for the town centre and public transport (rail/bus).

I recently stayed at the Regent and i received a very warm welcome, the room was lovely, they have recently refurbished the bar and have a new room called the Park View Suite which is lovely. I found it really well priced for the quality, especially as it is in the centre of Doncaster. All the staff are friendly and helpful, especially Monica and Simon the Manager. Downstairs they have a bar named Abbey Road - Beatles themed, wonderful food and a good selection of drinks and wine!! I would reccomend this to anyone who is staying in Doncaster, the location is also spot on right in the centre of town, easily accessible to everywhere, it also has a modern lounge/bar which can be booked out for events and parties which i found useful to know!

Had a 2 night weekend break which was great value for money. Our room on the first floor was very spacious, had a kingsize bed & was very clean. The bathroom positively shone. All the staff were very friendly & helpful. We only had breakfast which was both substantial & with plenty of choice. It was all freshly cooked. Position excellent as only 10 minutes walk to main centre & 15/20 minutes to rail or bus stations.
Very pleasant & would certainly recommend.

We stayed there for a weekend night out and could not fault the hotel or its staff when we were checking in there were a loud bragging toffee nosed couple who must have thought they were checking in at the radisson and were moaning because they couldnt park outside the door and wanted compensation "pathetic" [must have got a new motability car and wanted to show it off] we got parked no bother.i left my keys with the manager and in the morning my car was outside the door Why do wannabees always check in at cheaper hotels and expect 5 star service then pick on the receptionists wanting free upgrades etc professional moaners i call them. The staff were very friendly and helpful the rooms were clean and modern and its only a minute or so to the town centre.I would recommend this hotel to anyone and we will definately be going back

“A Civil Celebration”

Save Review
5 of 5 stars
Doncaster,England
26 Jul 2007

We held our Civil Partnership party there in the Abbey Road Studio & Bar followed by an overnight stay.
We could not fault this hotel or it's staff. The food & hospitality was excellent, service perfect, location fantastic & room excellent.
If you want a good party or just an overnight or weekend break then this is perfect.
It's own restaurant is fantastic, food delicious or it's location makes it perfect for a short walk to the centre of Doncaster with it's many bars & restaurants.

A Big Thank You to Jenny & Stuart of The Regent.
