Stayed in the Biko room. Large room, striking decor. All the expected room facilities. Beds and floorboards a bit creaky, and the room being above a busy popular bar came with predictable noises into the early hours, particularly Saturday. But, that said, we'd visit again.

Underwhelming, has potential but needs some TLC
Staff friendly and welcoming. Bed mattresses very creaky, springs obviously gone. Continental breakfast only during the week, shame no cooked option. Toast, cereals fruit all came at once, so toast got cold. Bananas had been in the fridge, therefore off putting black skins.

Friendly welcome, upgraded to a bigger room. All staff were very friendly, and our room was in keeping with the age and character of the building. Big fluffy towels, molten brown shower gel and a very comfortable bed. The bed did squeak as we moved, the only downside to the room. Loved the location, great value, and we would definitely stay here again.

Given a warm welcome
On arrival received a warm welcome and checked in swiftly. The bar restaurant area was very inviting and the décor appealing. Very much reflecting the hotel name. The accommodation itself was tired looking, outdated and in dire need of some TLC. One hopes that this is in the pipeline as it does affect the overall appeal of The Lodge. The room was however clean and warm. All the staff were incredibly friendly and worked well together as a team. They seemed genuinely happy in their work and offered a high level of service. There is an extensive menu with an interest variety of choices to be had. Food was well cooked and tasty and the breakfast was definitely worth the nominal additional cost. Overall in was a nice stay and would visit again. Many thanks to the management & staff

Quick stay
Decor is very tired and didn't feel particularly clean (very large cobweb at eye level behind door into bathroom). But very warm welcome and accomodated my early departure at 6.30am with a substantial breakfast tray outside door. Felt overpriced at £90 for a twin room for a single traveller considering the decor.

Overnight Stay
Helpful friendly staff from the moment I arrived to the moment I left. The restaurant should be visited. Good car parking facilities Leaving on the Sunday morning well before "breakfast" began proved not to be a problem as a tray with a perfect Continental breakfast was left outside the door while I was using the en-suit shower.

Wonderful stay
Great hotel with boutique rooms. The staff were simply amazing, so friendly and helpful. Our room was huge and although a bit tired in places was spotlessly clean. We upgraded from continental breakfast to full English and omg, it was so good and a very large portion. I must also mention the coffee which was, and this is no exaggeration the best we have ever tasted, it was from ‘Forge’ coffee roasters in Sheffield if you are interested. If we are ever in the area again we would not hesitate to stay here again.

Little gem. Up at Loughborough with my son for a days training the following day. Really friendly welcome, great room(we were in Yoko). We had to leave next morning before breakfast service started. They wrapped up some croissants and fresh fruit and left them outside our room for us unbudden, which was a lovely touch. Lots of parking, clean spacious room. Just one minor gripe, the pillows. Only one of them, and really flimsy, but that aside couldn't fault it. Will use again, next time we're up here.

A good place to stay
The outstanding features of this hotel are the warm welcome and excellent service from the staff, the very pleasant and comfortable dining experience, the nice clean bathroom facilities, and access to a regular rail service. A great place to stay if you are visiting the Great Central Heritage Railway, whose Quorn and Woodhouse station is short distance away by car; and there is also an hourly train service to Loughborough where the Great Central Railway has its HQ (20 minutes on foot from Loughborough station), from Barrow-upon Soar station which is just 200 metres walk from the hotel (step access to platforms) but no noise from the trains at the hotel as they are in a deep cutting. There is enough parking at the hotel but you don't need to have a car to stay here.

old fashioned room
As the room was directly above the bar, it was quite noisy which was not ideal for working. Also I am not big on breakfasts but if I was, a continental breakfast would not be my choice. evening meal the night before was excellent however. The room whilst quirky was very dated and could do with an up-date.

Great size room, lovely stay.
Very pleased I found this venue. I was away for business, arrived around 20;00 on the first day, greeted with a friendly smile, assisted with my luggage to the room. Then enjoyed a lovely steak meal. Breakfast was continental style which suited me. This was served by Maggie, friendly and fun to chat with, which being a sole visitor was a nice bonus. Very enjoyable two day, lovely big room, what more could I ask for.
