I thought I was staying at the Netheredge Hotel having booked online but on arrival for some unexplained reason was referred to the Briary. The chap who met me was helpful and also cooked the breakfasts for the guests.There was a phone in the hall if you needed anything. My room was "in the attic" and the heating on the radiator could not be controlled as the knob was missing. The TV only had 4 chanels, there was no radio alarm and the room was very dated and tired - nothing like the website. When the toilet was flushed, the pipes made a loud noise for some time. It was clean but basic. The milk for the tea was 3 weeks out of date. The award certificates in the hall were for 2000 which said it all really.
I was told that the Netheredge Hotel did meals so I went there. The cook turned out to also be the barman and although real ales were advertised outside, none were available. What is going on with these two?

The location is good.
On arriving nobody was there to book in with.
Had to go to their sister hotel to see somebody to help me.
The receptionist had to ring someone who lives up the road
who comes and books you in.
The hotel smelt fusty and in need of a good airing.
The room i was allocated was in need of plenty of money throwing at it..
The wall paper was hanging from the walls. There were holes in the walls,
the carpet was so stained and dirty that it looked as though the owners had
aquired from the local tip. The toilet was coming off the wall and the shower didnt function. The TV didnt work, the chair in the bedroom was so stained that it looked
that somebody had used it to stand on whilst creosoting the fence.
The breakfast room was fusty and there was food splashings on the wall.
the food when it arrived was barely warm. Also my tea cup had the big chip in it.
On the whole its the worst hotel ive stayed, but because of this we had a good laugh
as we couldnt believe anyone would have the nerveto pass this hovel off as a hotel.
Where did their awards come from? Probably brought from the local car boot.
This place could be good but would need a lot of money throwing at it.
Ifthis is rated 38th best hotel in Sheffield i WOULD LIKE TO SEE THE WORST,

We booked a last minute one night stay. It offered everything that we expected. The hospitality was excellent. The rooms have lots of character and victorian charm but they are looking 'tired'. Time for the cracks to be filled and a new lick of paint I think.

When arriving at this hotel, I had a similar experience as listed previously with the front door not being in use, and having to walk round to the back in the dark as there is no lighting.

When I got there I rang the bell. 5 minutes later a guy appears coming up the garden path - to tell me I have no resvervation. Eventually he tells me to wait disappears for 10 minutes and when he returns he tells me I'm booked into another htoel nearby - but as its owned by the same people it doesn't matter. I'm sent to the Nether Edge Hotel, which is fairly close, although the unclear directions he gives me means it takes a little longer than it should do!

On my arrival there it turns out to be more of a guest house with rooms above a bar. The people smoking outside the open front door means the reception stinks of smoke. On checking in I'm told breakfast is 8-9.30am and I have to check out at 10am (this is for a Saturday night stay - so the hours aren't weekend friendly at all). I asked for a late check out as I knew I would be working until late and was told its company policy and I could only get a late check out if the owners agree, but as they couldn't get hold of the owners so there is nothing that could be done.

The room was basic and run down to say the least - although it was clean, but for the £82-50 I was charged was really not value for money.

I would really not recommend booking into either hotel - as you seem to have no guarantees that you'll get what you think you're booking.
