Best Western Sysonby Knoll Hotel

Many thanks for a lovely stay. We could not fault the hotel. Fantastic building with a lot of character. We had an upgrade to a superb room with 4 poster bed overlooking the garden. The owner and staff were really friendly and helpful and made us feel very welcome. The breakfast and evening meal were excellent and a very nice pint of bitter. 10 minute walk into the town and also some nice walks around the hotel area. With everything going on at the moment I would not hesitate to recommend this safe and clean hotel and hopefully will be returning later in the year. less

We stayed here recently for one night as we were attending a family funeral in Melton Mowbray. From the moment we booked, to checking out, the staff were outstanding and so accommodating. Our room was fabulous. We booked a superior room but were allocated a four poster room overlooking the beautiful gardens and countryside beyond. The room was well appointed, immaculately clean, comfortably furnished and included large, flat screen tv, iron, ironing board and hairdryer. Be aware, the latter mentioned items may depend on the room type booked. My sister-in-law was in a standard room but didn't have hairdryer. She was otherwise very happy with her room though. We opted to stay for evening meal at the hotel. There was plenty of choices despite the hotel only recently re opening with few guests due to Covid-19. Our evening meal was delicious, as was the breakfast the following morning. A previous review mentioned their room being a little cold. Just for info, the heating in the rooms can be controlled by the guest by a dial on the wall, which is what we did. We weren't cold but had got caught in heavy rain and needed to dry our clothes.... We would love to visit Sysonby again in better circumstances and stay a little longer. Despite the sad reason for our visit, we had a lovely stay and can't praise the staff highly enough for their excellent service. Thankyou to all at Sysonby Knoll, we hope to visit again soon. less

Stayed one night for a function at Melton golf club . The room seemed very pleasant if a little cold. When we went to get ready for our evening out we found that there was no cold water from the bath tap plus the pop up plug in the sink kept jamming closed so we could not empty the waste water. Looking at the plug i would say we’re not the first to have had these problems. This room should never have been booked out with these problems. less

Myself and my dog had a really lovely two night stay at this hotel well. It has managed to retain the a feel of a country house family-run hotel. All the staff were professional and couldn't do more to make our stay comfortable. The hotel is spotlessly clean throughout. The restaurant serves up a good range of dishes and the meals I had was all very tasty. In addition to all this there are beautiful grounds that in the summer would be lovely to spend time in. Finally I have never stayed anywhere that is so dog friendly it was a lovely touch to enter the room to find a dog bowl with a complementary gravy bone already in it and even a throw left specially for the dog if needed. Thank you to all the staff, we had a lovely time less

Very comfortable room, we were lucky to be upgraded to a superior one on arrival. Food both breakfast and dinner lovely. Staff were super, particularly Lindsay who looked after us in the restaurant. 20 minute level walk into town which was convenient. All in all a pleasant 2 day break in Melton Mowbray...Would certainly recommend Sysonby Knoll to anyone wishing to stay in the town... less
