Although this hotel is slightly outdated, could probably do with a freshern up (the reception smelt a bit musky). The receptionist was lovely and the hotel staff very friendly. The bed was suprisingly comfortable and I slept well.

Very nice facility. O ly drawback was the resturant and bar were closed, and the two pubs across the street didn't have food Monday evening.

I love how peaceful it is here, there are 3 lovely pubs, all different in menus and atmosphere, and its only a half hour walk to drift limits london motor circuit or another lovely eatery, the fishery inn. The accommodation has free widi, spacious parking, a decking area with a lovely view of the river and the staff are very helpful and polite. Ill definitely bbe back again and again

We had a lovely overnight stay. We loved how this hotel is built around an old water mill and how you are right by the overflow canal off the main canal. The staff were all extremely friendly.

It was a pleasant stay, the only thing i would say is that the rooms need new carpets and a bathroom makeover, too dated.

Part of the Sure Collection of Best Western. Really nice setting with 2 pubs directly across the road for dining options. My room was on the ground level and looked directly on to the car park so the car was only a few feet from the door which was really convenient. Really nice and friendly staff and very helpful. The room was really well decorated, up to date and clean. A nice big, comfy bed and double headed shower. There was a lovely view of the river which ran outside of the hotel. Breakfast was really well cooked and got the day off to the best start. Great value for money stay with only a couple of minor things stopping a 5 out of 5 review but would definitely look to stay here again.

Being a watermill it was very scenic, the staff were really friendly, clean and tidy throughout, the tea and coffee not nice but I put it down to the water, overall I have been back and will be again

Bathroom poor condition, panelling on inside of door hanging off. Shower curtain has black mold. Carpet seemed dirty.

When I first went in, I found my twin room smelled very strongly, the air conditioning/ heating was really high and had unpleasant hot air that was also coming out of a crack in the wall. The bathroom was new and clean and of a good standard, and the room was better once the window could be opened and the hot air conditioning turned off.
The single beds in the twin room were quite basic and hard (probably ok for back sleepers).
Overall it was a satisfactory overnight stay and conveniently near the motorway.

Has so much potential being on the river & with the waterwheel but sadly the hotel has seen better days. Our room was plenty big enough but very old furnishings & the counterpains on the bed were stained. Unfortunately the rooms at the front are subject to road noise.

Room was a good size, cold and had seen better days.
Shower was cold/no food/bar yes theres a pub over thr road but its not exactly cheap.
For over a £100.00 i exspected warm water and it to generally look like it was cared for.
