Best Western Bestwood Lodge Hotel

A platinum member with Best Western and wasn't offered a free upgrade. Evening meal ordered and had to request 1hour after ordering looks like I'd been forgotten as food finally arrived after 1.5hrs, won't be going back. Very disappointed as building has lots of character and history less

Arrived about 1pm, room not ready, not a problem. Reception staff a bit harassed as 2 weddings that weekend. Asked for a bite to eat in the bar & told they kitchen might be closed due to 2 weddings! However, we had bacon & brie sandwiches-delish!!! Later we were told our room numbers-no offer to show us the way or carry luggage, we were on the 3rd floor & it's a LONG way. The twin room was clean & tide & basic, please don't try to bend down to pick anything up in the shower. The grounds are superb as is the building itself. The outside areas were quite lovely however the designated "smoking area" had no ashtrays. This could be a really fabulous place however no effort seems to be made to set it apart. Breakfast was quite adequate buffet style. Plenty of staff milling around...but that's all they did, no attempts made to clear used crockery. Public areas seemed to have been missed by the cleaners, the stairs etc were quite grubby. I would stay again but not in the same room. less

Old building with some interesting features and history,some nice country park walks.Like many older buildings needs some modernisation.Based on what we ate quality could be improved.Handy location to visit Nottingham and surrounding area. less

I’m now in to my 27th year of staying at Bestwood Lodge and I can’t fault it. The hotel is a beautiful historic building, the rooms are clean and spacious. The breakfast is among the best I have ever had and the staff are very friendly and helpful. I am looking forward to a return trip in a few months’ time. less

Here you live the history of Great Britan. A Pub area in the middle with tasty pub-food, a breakfast only for english lovers without any selection rather than bacon and beans. The rooms are really historic and with a nice flair, water takes a while to heat up. But it is clean and sleeping was OK. less
