Best Western Plus Pastures Hotel

The Good: Wifi worked well. Lots of free parking. Pub nearby with good inexpensive food. Clean including the bathroom. The Not So Good: Hard beds - although that might be more personal preference. Pillows weren't bad. Small room...not much room to move around. Bathroom...very bad design. When you showered the water sprayed on the counter top. Short people would have a difficult time reaching the towel bar over the counter. Dull lighting. less

We have just returned from a 2 night stay at the Best Western Plus in Mexborough. Check in was very smooth, room was clean and tidy. We were under the impression that Breakfast was included. We found that a continental breakfast was included and we could upgrade to Full English for 5. We decided as we were there for 2 nights we would try the Continental for 1st Morning. we went down to breakfast and stated we would be having the Continental Breakfast. We were shown where all the items were located and told to help ourselves. We were dissappointed. There was a bowl with few pieces of Grapefruit, mixed fruit, Granola that we polished off between us. Basically we felt like the poor relation and the Continental Breakfast items hadn't been refilled. The 2nd morning we had the Full English and happy to say was very different. There was a lot to choose from and all of a good standard. Very happy. We also had to speak to reception on the first morning about an issue with the bed. Over time people sitting on the edge had damaged the side and you felt like you were rolling off in the night. We spoke to the lady on reception who said she would get someone to check this out. To our surprise they were already in the room as we got back. There wasn't really much could be done however we were happy that at least they had offered to do something. Overall we really liked this hotel and would certainly return. less

This is a nice hotel with a large family friendly restaurant/bar just over the car park in a separate building (which means you can hear no noise from it). The reception is quite bright and spacious with some comfy seats to chill out in near the bar area. The man who greeted us was friendly and helpful when asked about the local area and hotel details, like breakfast times. There were two other reception staff over the weekend that weren't very friendly though - a woman with dark hair and glasses, and a man with a large unkempt beard (my partner wondered if he was incapable of speaking). The bar area is quite small and could do with a chill out area, as the only areas you can really sit in is reception, otherwise you're sitting in the restaurant eating area. We didn't try the food other than breakfast which was a nice continental breakfast. The breakfast staff were very friendly and attentive. The rooms were nice, good size, clean and with comfy beds. The Smart TV's were excellent with Sky Sports, and apps available to watch films/TV if need be. Free WiFi worked fine. The hotel were fine about us ordering a takeaway delivery to our rooms even though they had a restaurant, unlike one hotel we stopped at recently. The nearby town Mexborough was a bit scruffy and lifeless, definitely not worth a visit. But other areas around were pretty, including the canal walk next to the hotel. Nearby there is a leisure centre (which you can use as part of the hotel facilities) and an Asda supermarket around 1 mile away. We would definitely stay at this hotel again. less

We stayed here for a weekend with our baby and had a good time, the room was lovely and clean they gave us a travel cot for our 1 year old. Staff really friendly and helpful. Breakfast good in the morning with a fair amount to choose from. The bar opposite does nice food with a children's soft play area and out door park. Would come back again. less

Positives and negatives... the colleague checking us didnt greet us, was just given a form told where to sign. No pleasantries or even a hello. Had to ask re: breakfast times and where as not naturally offered. Room met our needs, bed comfy, good size, shower good pressure, clean. The room was very hot with no air con. Opened the window the inch it allowed did provide some relief, unfortunately due to a function there was noise late in to the evening particularly with window open. Breakfast first morning was good (continental) and offered a good range. However on 2nd morning ran out of yoghurts/croissants etc i assume due to being busy. Staff although friendly seemed a little fraught by this busy morning. Overall our stay met our needs though so all good. less
