Doncaster (Lakeside) Hotel

Everything about the stay was first class. Hotel was very clean and the food at breakfast was very good. Staff were very helpful.

We booked a family room for 2 nights, 2 adults and 2 children to see family in the area for the weekend. We arrived and checked in, allocated room 23. This is in the main building, on the ground floor facing the entrance to the hotel and beefeater restaurant. As seems common now, a family room is a normal sized room with 2 beds squeezed in, and no room to swing a cat. We asked whether we could move to a larger room as we were staying 2 nights, and to a better location, but unfortunately the hotel was full (apparently it was a big weekend in the world of horse racing) but were told next time, request the annexe and a view of the lake. (The annexe is a newer building across from the main hotel). A shame we didn’t know this before arriving. As it turned out we weren’t disturbed by any noise outside the hotel, but the room was very run down and in desperate need of a deep clean. Cobwebs all over the walls and ceiling, dust on the lamps and table. I tried not to look at the skirting boards and gave the bathroom floor a clean myself 🤢. We ate at the Beefeater both nights and had a really lovely meal, breakfast was also good, but the coffee machine was broken on the second day 😱 😂 I would advise booking as it seems popular with locals as well as guests so gets busy. All in all, it was fine and did the job, the staff were all lovely and helpful, it just seems old and run down, which is a shame.

Lovely room great staff on reception...very helpful and professional.

Excellent location, we stayed in a plus room. Lovely view of the lake. The bed as with all premier inns very comfortable. The staff are all very good . We ate in the Beefeater, had the meal deal. Very good value for money and the food was excellent..

great location, lovely efficient, very friendly staff in the hotel and restaurant. The rooms were clean, no noise considering beside busy roads. It was a very busy restaurant with good atmosphere and considering how busy they were the staff worked so hard , they were friendly and efficient , delivering tasty food.
