Clean comfortable room with air conditioning .. perfect for short stay on business Its a little strange walking into hotel as there is no reception .. you have to go into the pub to sign in which was not helpful after driving for 5 hours and walking into a busy pub with your luggage (didnt give me a good start to yhe stay) That said, everything else was excellent .. food was good , nice pub Staff were first class , Abby and the young gentleman who served me did a great job especially as a solo traveller, they had a nice personable attitude

Comfortable rooms. Pleasant modern pub. Decent cooked breakfast and good value. Greeted by Abby at check-in and looking after breakfast the next day. She is brilliant. A real asset to Marstons.

Boiling hot and stuffy, with a really thick winter weight duvet. Got very little sleep, as the outside heat pumps are right below the window, open the window for air and you listen to what sounds like a diesel engine switching on and off constantly. Air con in the room presumably hasn't been serviced since the place was built, had to switch it off as it speeds 1-2 didn't work at all and speed 3 sounded like it was going to explode.

Lovely hotel and a great location. The restaurant served so.e really tasty food. The only issues we had was even though it was clean it could do with a bit more dusting because the light fittings and toilet rolls holder was a little dusty

We had a nice stay but sadly my partner and I were awoken at 7am by someone using a loud garden strimmer. Called the front desk to see if trimming the grass could be delayed and was told the person doing it would be moved to a different area to give us some peace and quiet, but the person kept strimming near us anyway. Bit of a shame as we'd had a late night and were looking forward to a lie in. The room was very nice though. Whilst dinner was nothing to write home about, the breakfast was excellent.

Wonderful gem of a hotel

My daughter was due to have an operation at Nottingham Spire, and I was driving up from Luton, so I randomly chose Gamston Lock from the available list of hotels because 1) It was closest to the hospital 2) Because it was cheap 3) Because there was a restaurant on site. The lovely surprise we got on arrival was a fabulous pub/restaurant with a spacious outdoor seating area, immaculately presented rooms with incredibly comfortable beds, and a great restaurant with the tastiest pies I’ve had in years!!

Good enough for a couple of nights

We’ve stayed here previously as it is central to family members who live in the area. The pub attached serves delicious food and it is where reception for the rooms is. Fun was to be had with the holy card on the door, you had to tap three times. Decor is a little tired, but the room was clean and bed was comfortable enough for our liking.

The room was basic but comfortable and provided everything we needed. The location was excellent, perfectly situated for our purpose. The staff were all friendly and helpful. The food choices were excellent, good value and tasty. Our only complaint was the loud noise coming from the air conditioning unit attached to the bar/restaurant, we had our window open for fresh air and the unit was quite loud. However, despite the hotel being near a busy road we heard no road noise. We would definitely stay again if we were in the area.
