Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.
Learn more about our review moderation.

Had heard that the new chef is good so we thought we would try the Royal George again. The chef is good. The three of us enjoyed our evening meal and the service was friendly. Will return.

No serious issues. Stayed for two nights at short notice, landlady was pleasant and accommodating. Room was small and cramped, especially the bathroom. The bar and restaurant are managed by children who seem to have no hospitality experience. Had booked with an evening meal and...breakfast for both nights, but this wasn't registered on the system. Came down for evening meal on the Sunday to be told that they stopped serving at 5pm. Wasn't told this beforehand. Just little things. The place looks good on the surface, but it's a case of 'all show, no go'. Not a disaster, but wouldn't recommend.More

Just had the most delicious Sunday lunch and never had such tender tasty roast beef as this. The portions are generous and the puddings and desserts ended the meal perfectly. Staff were very friendly and helpful, nothing too much trouble. If you want a really...nice Sunday lunch then visit The Royal George, I can thoroughly recommend.More

We had a fantastic meal to celebrate a birthday. The steaks were perfectly cooked to taste and the deserts just the right portion and delicious. The staff were very friendly and efficient, contributing to a good atmosphere. We stayed the night in a very comfortable...ensuite room with everything we needed. Highly recommendMore

Lovely welcome, the new chef came and spoke to us and offered to make sea bass for me. Wow! AmazIng sea bass with crayfish hollandaise and griddled asparagus. Service was impeccable and a very nice Sancerre. Having been disappointed in the past few months I...must say glad we tried again. My husband had a really tasty steak with sides. We will be back.More

Great range of food on the menu, and good size portions. Staff were very attentive and friendly. And a very reasonable bill at the end. Highly recommend and we will definitely be returning. Hugely enjoyable Saturday night out.

Customer service was horrible. Waited about 2 hours for my food only for it to be the wrong order. Which I was also charged for even though I never ordered it in the first place. I was ignored when spoke to my waiter and asked...for another drink. Had the bill thrown onto the table after I asked for it. Overall will not be returning! Or recommending this place.More

We spent three nights here in the rural village of Cottingham, close to Corby and Market Harborough. It proved to be an ideal base for visits to Oakham, Castle, the Rennie Mackintosh House in Northampton and the National Space Centre in Leicester. Our room was...well laid out with nice furniture and a first rate en suite. Breakfasts, which were were included were brilliant full English with various partial versions available. The evening meals had limited options but they were of excellent quality at reasonable prices. There was a great range of beers also available at the bar. All the staff were polite, efficient and friendly.. We intend to go to the area and the Royal George again in the summer.More
