Best Hotels near Marton Museum of Country Bygones, Marton

Upon arrival I had major reservations about what I had booked. The photos on the booking site were nothing like what I was seeing. The car park was nealry rubble and the surrounding grounds were poorly kept. Reception was quite grand in appearance but that's the only good point this hotel has going for it. For the size of the place there is hardly any staff. The room I had booked wasn't available now so given another. Waking down the hallway I could see the carpet littered in stains, absolutely filthy Room was very dated and the furniture was a collection of random bits, our coffee table was missing a leg and was proped up by a chair. Some old 5 pin plug sockets by the beds for the lamps. Bar area was also tired in appearance although staff were very friendly. The whole place needs a major overhaul.

Cold rooms, with no working heating, tea and coffee facilities (except a kettle, which made it challenging) and uncomfortable beds. Do not stay if you want a comfortable night's sleep, I woke up with the springs from the mattress imprinted on my head... I understand that you ”get what you pay for” but considering my experience, even the low price was overpriced. The staff were very friendly and helpful. For our purposes, stag break, it was functional enough for us with a reasonable breakfast included and good drinks offers available.

Where do we begin! Perhaps were we had to call the POLICE because the lad on RECEPTION was threatening and abusive in language. We had asked to change our reservation the night before. The manager did this for us. Then all we got was abuse from the lad on reception who clearly hates his life there but no need to take that out on us! He accused us of being abusive on the phone the night before - interesting as we never even spoke to him. Apparently the worker (Jessica) had left a note on our booking complaining about us so he read that to us and said he didn’t like that we were rude to his colleagues! What! He said this would be the last time we stayed at days inn. My husband and I were dumfounded. We called the police reluctantly but he would not let us speak to his manager and we felt verbally abused and intimidated. Absolutely disgusted by our treatment in this days inn. I have traveled up and down the country staying at these hotels and I have never been treated like this by any company. The room was dirty and dusty. We only stayed as we had no where else to go and they would not give us a refund. Honestly for your safety and dignity to not stay here!

Located right in the middle of Warwick University campus this is part of a conference centre and this is the general feel of the establishment when you walk in. It is spacious and functional and the rooms are OK, think Travelodge meets Holiday Inn Express. I had an executive room, I think that means it's bigger than the standard rooms which I think is worth it as it didnt cost much more. The breakfast was very good however the coffee in urns was not pleasant. You just need to step out of the dining area where there is free coffee from machines which is much better. Staff throughout are the best feature. They do need to sort out the litter surrounding the building - there were plastic bottles scattered outside the entrance which were still there the next day. No reycling facilities anywhere either. But overall I would recommend.

On the campus of Warwick University, the environment is okay, the rooms are not very new, but clean and sanitary, and the waiters are more enthusiastic. Breakfast is a medium-sized English breakfast. Go early and have fruit. The room comes with two small packets of cookies and various teabags. There is a living room on the first floor, where you can enjoy coffee and snacks for free!

I surprised my wife for her birthday by booking us into a 1920s murder mystery in this beautiful Victorian Gothic hotel. The overall experience was worth doing but the hotel 's amenities... weren't great. Like the previous reviewer, we also had issues with power in our room (Room 5). Fortunately no flashing bulbs, but no power at all. Even the lights in our end of the corridor were out and it's really odd that the staff supposedly hadn't noticed this until now. They eventually gave us an extra lamp, but there was no opportunity to move rooms nor was any other kind of compensation offered. Besides the lighting situation, the room looked tired and in need of some work doing: flaking skirting boards, broken curtain holders and tile cracks were all included - the latter were in the bathroom, with a big one in the bath area, which will become a BIG problem in the future if it's not fixed soon. But also, the carpet hadn't been hoovered as we found loose screws on the floor. I also noticed dead spiders in the downstairs Gents, so it seems the hotel takes shortcuts with their cleaning schedule. The bar was alright, and the bar staff were quick and attentive. Great choice of wines and spirits, but not much of a beer selection (mass-produced lagers and bottles of Doom Bar basically). The evening meal was also good overall, especially the cheesecake. The service was lacking though - all drinks orders involved us having to get up and visit the bar, which is difficult during a murder mystery, so I missed some bits. There was only one small jug of water brought to the table for all 10 of us and it was never refilled. The bread that came with the soup was stale. The main course took a while to come out, and it had blatantly been kept on the gantry for ages as the vegetables looked scorched. The dessert then took over half an hour to come out, and by the time they were serving coffee the murder mystery was already over. Breakfast-wise, service was almost non-existent. The full English was pretty average but at least it was hot, and they brought out extra eggs. There were no glasses or mugs anywhere and every single table was dirty. In the end I had to clear some plates away just to sit down and eat. Cutlery was just piled up on a tray by the TV, and there were no napkins. No one served coffee either, and when we went to get some ourselves the coffee was cheap instant coffee and really watered down. But the icing on the cake (which in a way was kind of funny), was making coffee in the room. As the kettle boiled, the steam set off the fire alarm! What's stranger is the first time round that didn't happen! So yeah, nice building from the outside, but the inside really needs work.

We arrived early & the nice gentleman on reception allowed us to park & check in early. Our room (number 2) was located on the ground floor next to the main road & was noisy all through the night. However, this was easily sorted the next day by the purchase of some ear plugs. The room was clean, well maintained & had a good sized en suite wet room. The carpark is small so it's on a first come, first served basis. There is a small parade of shops across the road which is very useful. A word to the wise on the location. It's true that it is close to the castle, but that walk is uphill so be prepared. There are, however, a fair few cafés, shops etc along the way. The lady who checked us out was very helpful & had a very pleasant demeanour. All in all a nice place in a lovely town.

Stayed here for 1 night - 30th December as a couple. The Old Coffee Tavern is very central and a short walk from the castle. It's a middle-sized pub, with an open kitchen in the back that looks a bit odd and a slightly cramped bar but is clean and not too rowdy. We took a twin room right at the top with a shower room. It was nice, with a view over the town, and was clean and tidy with nice decor and all the bits and pieces you'd expect. If I were to be picky, I'd say the mini bar was both a bit noisy and also a bit superfluous, perched on a table as it was. The beds were clean and comfy and there was adequate storage. Breakfast in the morning came with attentive service, plenty of tea and coffee, and lots of choices. It was pretty good. All in all, then, this was a very nice place to stay in the heart of Warwick.

Quite impressed with the stay - the standard is above most of the 3 star hotels. I believe the hotel has been renovated (including the bathroom) so the room looks very new and clean. Room is very spacious and equipped with a nice bed. They provide facial tissues (surprise!) and the body wash amenity is lovely. We really enjoyed our stay.
