10/10 Exceptional

I had a lovely stay at the Best Western Plus West Retford Hotel. The grounds are beautiful and the historic building adds a lot of charm. My room was clean, spacious, and very comfortable. Staff were friendly and helpful throughout. Dinner at the restaurant was excellent—fresh and well-prepared. Only downside was the breakfast, which felt a bit basic compared to the rest of the experience. Overall, a peaceful and enjoyable stay. Would definitely return!

JOHN, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

We found the staff to be helpful and polite, the room to be clean and to a good standard, the grounds to be very well kept, and tidy. The only slight downside was the cost of food and drinks.
Katie, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

It's ok...

Wish I'd known my room wouldn't be in the main building , as a single female I prefer to be in a hotel with access to reception 24hours without having to walk accross grounds and a phone in room to be able to call the desk if needs be . Also room service only available if you go in to the bar and order .... again not ideal when you have been travelling for hours, had a busy day at work and just want to relax and order food from the room . These little things do make a difference to me . Travelling for work alot ,so for these reasons I probably wouldn't stay here again . Overall a clean and tidy room , staff pleasant ,but a bit dingy ,dark and depressing in my room .

Helpful staff, beautiful venue

Super helpful staff, beautiful venue. I was a bit shocked to see single use plastics, wrapped in plastic in the bathrooms in the form of plastic cups - I thought there were a thing of the past.
