Stayed in this hotel for a 3 day business course and was very disappointed with the wifi or rather lack of it. I tried all over the hotel and just couldn't get it. My phone reception was rubbish too so I had problems keeping in touch with family. I ended up hanging out of the hotel window just to let... More

As a regular business traveler I find it important to have good Internet access to allow me to work. This was worst Internet access of any hotel I've stayed in. They even moved me rooms for "better signal" and it was worse. Virtually no phone signal either. Seems to be in a total black spot. Felt sorry for receptionist as... More

I stayed here on business in May 2013. Staff at the Sporting Lodge are fantastic! The rooms are average but clean (apart from make up marks on the rubbish bin in the bathroom). The breakfast is average but again staff are excellent. Dinner in the restaraunt is yummy! The only thing that really annoyed me was the terrible mobile coverage... More

It had been nearly a year since we visited this hotel. We are happy to use the Sporting Lodge again for one very good reason.....its position.It is just off the A19 but far enough to be without the traffic noise suffered by many hotels we have stayed at and five mins from our sons. The pool,gym,sauna and steam rooms are... More

First impressions of this hotel were actually good ie outside view, reception and the entrance to the swimming pool and gym. However, when we got to the room we were quite disappointed. It was run down and in need of a refurb. The bed had collapsed on the bottom corner which meant that you slept on a slant. The cold... More

I stayed in this hotel when I attended a 3 day training course. The hotel was booked by the company and is used by all of our trainees. I received details of the hotel prior to attending and was looking forward to it based on the website, but was sorely disappointed from the first moment. When I was checking in... More

Starting with the good bits - free wifi, low price, excellent food. Now the bad - small room with saggy furniture, slow intermittent wifi, INEFFECTUAL CLEANING, appearance of becoming run-down. There is no excuse for poor cleaning... my bathroom had clearly been given a regular "once over", but I doubt a thorough clean had been done in 18 months -... More

Myself and my husband recently had our wedding ceremony and reception at the hotel. The service we received prior to our wedding was excellent as well as everything on the day. The food we had including breakfast was lovely. I stayed in a normal room as well as the bridal suite and both were adequate. We were brought ice buckets... More

My wife and I stayed here on the 9th May 2013 for our wedding anniversary.The room was spacious,clean and had a comfortable bed. We were greeted at reception by a very pleasant young man called Aaron who was very efficient. We later visited the pool and spa area and found them very relaxing. We booked a table for 6.p.m. and...
