Great place to stay if you are visiting Donington race track. Owners are fantastic. Lovely Breakfast. Top marks all round. They even have a secured yard as a car park.
Hotel\Inn has no bad points Note: there are no footpaths on road to Donington race track, so car\bike is essential.

"As an overnight stay it was ideal. Slight problem at first as we assumed that food would be available, but it was fully booked though our host relented! Delighted with the food. Was the importance of booking a table made clear on the confirmation via internet? If it did, I missed it; if it didn't, it should."
Very pleasant staff. Very pleasing meal in the bar, varied, well cooked and presented. Good value

"I understand because we hadnt pre-booked the restuarant they may of had difficulty fitting us in to eat, but not even an offer of a sandwich on our arrival! Didnt find the lady particually welcoming or happy to have us staying"
Unwilling to accomodate us eating in the resturant, we were informed they were fully booked, but it was obvious to us during the evening they had several vacant tables. we hadnt pre-booked, as we hadnt stayed there before. not willing to provide any food for our friends that were staying elsewere that were joining us for the evening We were advised to eat elsewhere on our journey up!

The Staff were attentive, and there was every thing there we needed. Decent car parking facilities and areas where you could unload your car without having to carry your luggage a long way.
We did not appreciate that we were in the flight path of East Midlands airport. The frequency of the takeoff and landings denied us a good nights sleep.

"A pleasant evening"
Nice old hotel with good service
We had either missed or forgotten the 6-8pm check in and arrived early at 5:30pm to have it pointed out,all be it nicely, that we were luckly the door was answered.

"Having booking on the internet things sometimes are not as good as appear. This was far better and would definately recommend the hotel. "
Very friendly hosts. Beautiful old village and pub modernised but keeping the character. Very clean and excellent meal.

Accommodation was clean and well presented. We were allowed to leave our belongings in the room before the official check-in time which was really helpful as we were on our way to a wedding.
from Mirfield UK, stayed on April 25, 2008
"my only concern which I wasn't made aware of was the very close proximity to East Midlands Airport. Excepting for this the peace and tranquility was perfect."
very clean and comfortable: only a few rooms which made for a more relaxing stay.
aircraft landing at East Midlands Airport, during late evening ? overnight. If a light sleeper may find it annoying.
from Dartford, UK, stayed on April 16, 2008
"The couple that run the hotel could not have been more helpful and friendly. We were racing at Donington and this was a perfect place to stop - very close to the circuit, very comfortable. We had four out of the six rooms and we all had a comfortable night. Will book again when we go back to Donington."
Rooms were cosy and warm.
The bathroom was a bit cold, but it was a very cold weekend.

"The hotel is located in a scenic part of the country. There is a town nearby called Melbourne which has shops and restuarants. The food served in the Hardinge Arms is very good and the breakfast was very generous and freshly cooked! Overall it is a pleasant and friendly place to stay in."
Comfortable and spacious
The heating was not working and the room was cold. However this was quickly sorted once i brought it to the attention of the staff

"This Inn was a perfect stop-over place. Very good restaurant but important to book in advance as it is very popular with locals. Bar was relaxing and nice and very well stocked but a bit small should the restaurant be busy and you wanted to enjoy a quiet refreshment before eating. The room was above average and separate from the main building but sloping roof may cause a problem for tall people and tight staircase may cause difficulties for some. Breakfast was excellent and overall very good value for money B&B."
from Edinburgh United Kingdom;UK, stayed on May 1, 2007
Clean, large room room, comfortable bed, welcoming hotel and the area is lovely.
It wasn't the easiest place to find from the airport, and the directions given were only for car. Would have been useful to have directions for public transport.
