"OK"

central location; car park and shower OK

room layout a bit untidy; terrible pillows!

"Will not be staying there again"

Staff were competent

The room was a box like struture with the bathroom the size of a closet. No remote control for the TV

"Satisfactory"

Breakfast, very reasonable price

Shower stuck, no restaurant service that evening

"Hotel was in a good position for our trip to Donington circuit. Good restaurants in Loughborough."

Staff friendly. Good position in Loughborough.

Horrendous noise from private party in the bar on the Saturday evening. We were at the far end of the hotel, but had to put cotton wool in our ears to try and sleep. Noise went on until early hours. Someone wedged the fire door open with a rubber wedge in the corridor upstairs. The TV remote was broken.

"we just needed somewhere to sleep drop bags off, go out all day to download festival, return last thing at night, then sleep this did achieve our requirments so we cannot complain too much but i would reccommend only for 1 night stays."

close to town centre, free car park 2 mins walk to town.

very small room, hot and stuffy room, ground level so we couldnt leave window open.

"Poor value and gloomy atmosphere in room. "

Bathroom

Gloomy dull small room, no bedside lights, no bedside table, dim central light, TV remote did not work, no evening meals,

"very good"

everything good , advise installing hair dryers in rooms

"Adequate for an overnight stay / clean and comfortable probably 2 star rating "

Nice people / good solid clean rooms with no frills very freindly and relaxed with a good social life in teh bar

bar area is good but toilets in bar could do with renovation

"Overall stay was good."

In town centre, easy to get to. Not too expensive. Provided all facilities needed-bed,breakfast,close to local amenities,parking etc;

No one at desk to check in at 12 o'clock-had to wait for between 5-10 minutes. Had a further 15 minute wait to get into room-still being cleaned.

Location. The breakfast was good. Staff friendly.

Staircase narrow and steep. Room quite basic.

"An awful experience, never to be repeated. Would certainly have moved on if it hadn't been so late and I had not been so tired. Whole hotel felt grubby and dirty and I couldn't wait to leave as early as possible in the morning. Final insult was I had of course TO PAY for this!!!!! "

adequate parking

Smelly dog and dog food at reception had to step over it to check in, pregnant receptionist was inappropriately dressed with bare midriff and bare stomach, curtly told my room no. no assistance or information re. hotel was given. Bedroom grubby with filthy carpet,broken window, no curtains, blind too short, no bedside lamp, very noisy location. Food absolutely appalling and staff totally disinterested.

"Served its purpose for the weekend."

Staff was helpful and very hospitable.

Area of hotel, not best area of town.

"Hotel was reasonable"

Room was very clean and modern

Kitchen looked very dirty and untidy. Did not like the idea of a dog lying around in the hotel and dog food water looked like it had not been changed for days. When we arrived at the hotel around 7.00pm I was told that the hotel had stopped serving food, as it was late in the evening for cooking

shower upgrade needed

"Booked hotel on basis of other reviews which were favourable. The positions of electrical points in the room were at odds with the layout, but other than that no complaints at all. A lot of refurbishment has been carried out by the owners to a good standard, and for two nights stay it was good value in a town which suffers from a lack of decent hotel accommodation."

conveniently placed for work and reasonably priced.

No wireless internet connection.

central location

probably the dustiest room i've stayed in :

"Hotel was well situated and had good secure parking facilities. Staff were very helpful and advised us on local eating places etc. Every one was very friendly. Breakfast was excellent - We are both vegetarian and there was still plenty of choice."

large room, modern decor, Everything we needed was there. Generally relaxed feel

Too hot and a bit noisy - could hear people above moving about

Helpful Friendly staff, good food, close to town centre

"Excellent. Friendly staff, clean rooms, good breakfast"

Well presented nicely decorated room with TV, Tea making etc

"Tidy establishment - of the older variety. Breakfast very good."

Friendly - home from home atmosphere.

Shabby hotel, in need of repair. Also not very clean.

"As above excellent accomadation - friendly staff - please change the pillows, Thanks"

overall the Beauchief Hotel was very good value for money the rooms were clean and comfortable, we would certainely recommend the Beauchief to friends & family. The breakfast staff were very friendly and made us feel at home, nothing was too much trouble. A big thankyou to them.

Just one thing - the pillows were far too hard - I don't like the pillows to be too soft but a medium support pillow would be much better.

Room was too hot and too noisy

Close to the centre.

"pleased with overall stay of one night. outside of hotel gave poor impression but once inside was pleasantly surprised. very friendly & helpful staff. hotel comfortable. food good."

overall cleanliness very good. room layout good. staff friendly and helpful.

room was at front of hotel and was very noisy due to traffic overnight.

The furnitures in the room and the cleaness of the stuff in the room.

the entrance is via a coffee shop or bar of the hotel.

"The room was close to the road and extremely noisy. People fighting outside smashing bottles in the early hours of the morning"

Close to the university

The room was close to the road and extremely noisy. People fighting outside smashing bottles in the early hours of the morning

"Too noisy from traffic on the main road."

The breakfast was very good, beds comfortable.

Noise from the main road, no bedside light

"hotel in need of updating,furniture and fittings well worn and tired.Especially in the bar area."

shower leaked and water slow to drain away and nearly overflowed.bed was double and not queen size as stated when i booked.room was too close to the patio area therefore lots of noise from drinkers.

Friendly staff and good value for money, good breakfast!

Hotel could do with tidying up a bit

"Very nice people, very helpful and made you feel welcome. Would stay again if in the area."

Excellent location. Little, cousy,friendly and warm hotel. I recommend to everyone!!!

"If I had seen a picture of the room I would be staying in I would have chosen a different hotel."

My room was tiny, smallest room I've ever stayed in. Just enough room for a single bed and drawers.

"The Hotel was ideally situated for the town centre. The room was very clean and spacious. The hotel was full of character which was a bonus. We enjoyed our short stay and would definately use this hotel again."

Cleanliness, friendly staff, own carpark

"Needed a bed for the night, thats all it was."

Location.

A dog running around the hotel and jumping on furniture. The dog food and water bowls on the floor next to reception. The whole hotel smelt of smoke. The furniture in the room was broken. The TV had extremely poor reception and meant it was un watchable. The tap didnt turn off properly.

CLEAN AND TIDY

The sky tv as advertised, was 1 music channel that didnt always work. The heated towel rail did not heat at all.

The attitude and incompetance of the staff

The room was very clean and newly decorated and the staff were very welcoming and helpful.

The room was a bit small - but was adequate for a single. It could have done with a bedside lamp - there was only one main light in the room with the switch by the door.
