Atmospheric rooms and bar. Clean rooms and comfortable bed. Bathroom was unheated and cold. But if this was resolved I can recommend this hotel as a great base to explore Nottingham.

Liked: Cleanliness
Room was fine but basic for the price paid and the temperature of the room was very hot with no real way to turn the heating down. Staff were okay, but had little or no knowledge of the hotel and didn't really engage with guests. We tried to access the garden (as pictured), only to be told it was closed as it was winter?? in September - we have only just begun Autumn. Breakfast wasn't included in the price from Expedia? this was an extra £20.00 for a basic self service buffet breakfast, even making your own warm (from flasks) drinks. You can of course ask for a pot of tea, but at a price.

A fantastic hotel, in an area of national historical importance. The service from everyone there is fantastic. It's a beautiful hotel where you can take a walk. You may think some areas need further maintenence but the cost maintaining Victorian Gothic style building is frankly very difficult and should get Government grants. It really is an incredible place absolutely steeped in legend and history.

Staff were very helpful and friendly, if a bit haphazard! Food in the restaurant and the bar was really nice and well-priced. The bed was one of the most comfortable we have ever slept in and the room was very pleasant. There was a party in the function room below us, but there were no.problems with noise. Interesting place and good value for the price

Another enjoyable stay at Bestwood Lodge

Really interesting building, comfortable beds bedding etc. water coffee and tea supplied, replaced daily Manager and staff obliging, friendly and helpful Set in restful woodland setting but easy access to city The building is old and quirky and in parts need of updates but this is compensated for by its character and it is refreshingly different from many modern hotels with corporate decor and little soul. WiFi intermittent at times . I have stayed many times and hope to stay again.

Bestwood Lodge is a very old building in need of investment but for me that’s part of its charm. On the run up to my function I felt there was a bit of casualness around arraignments however on the night everything was spot on the staff were brilliant from the manager down the buffet food was spot on the venue DJ (Kes) was absolutely brilliant my accomadation was spot on. All in all my experience was very good and I would definitely use Bestwood Lodge again.

Birthday weekend stay

We had a wonderful stay at Bestwood Lodge staying in the King James room. A beautiful room with a balcony overlooking the gardens. Had a meal in the restaurant and the food was delicious. The lodge is a beautiful building with lovely gardens. Linda and Graham were so friendly and helpful. They looked after us very well. Want to go back very soon!

We stayed in the beautiful King Charles suite. The hotel and grounds are beautiful as was the room. It had a separate sitting area with a second tv and tea making facilities. The bed was huge and very comfortable. The bathroom was enormous with a twin shower.
