Sanctuary inn

Large and tastefully decorated bedroom area with large bathroom with excellent bath and separate shower.
Well located in centre of town,
Staff very friendly.
Nice bar and restaurant area downstairs. Amazing breakfast with fresh bean coffee.
Had a loft room with high eaves so no height issues. Noise was not a problem.

Great location. The staff were all really friendly and helpful.

The sanctuary inn was very central,staff were friendly and the room was nice and clean and very cosy,The meal in the restaurant was great and breakfast early next morning was excellent.

From the moment we arrived to the moment we left, I could not fault anything. The building is beautiful, in a great location with ample parking and is easily accesible. The staff are warm and friendly and make you feel very welcome.
We had the pleasure of staying in the lavender room. On arrival to our room, it was airy and fresh. The cleanliness of the room and bathroom were second to none.
The bathroom is exceptional! Beautiful free standing bath and a seperate shower with a waterfall shower head and fantastic water pressure. The bed was lovely and comfortable, plenty of pillows and a good thickness of quilt appropriate to the weather at the time. The velux windows add a lovely amount of light to the room.

The bar is well stocked with a great range. The tapas menu is not huge, but the range offered is ample- enough to meet any palate. The main menu is really good and reasonably priced too, everything looked good and we thoroughly enjoyed our food. The breakfast was fantastic, perfectly cooked eggs, separate beans and a really good size portion.

All of the staff members we came across were really friendly and happy- a good sign of a happy workplace.
We will definately be back and I recommend it to everyone I tell! A real hidden gem this one.
Thank you for a lovely experience

Breakfast and evening meal were good

Lovely spacious room lovely bath

Ideal location for my visit made very welcome great food at great prices and loved the real ale.

It was centrally placed, a very short walk from the Castle car park. There was a lovely Spanish style garden (with sun to match). The evening tapas was tasty. The included breakfast was also very good.

Breakfast was excellent with a good choice of condiments. Also just the little things such as including a pot of hot water with the tea, the offer of more toast. Friendly staff and Tapas Tuesday a real bonus. Owners allowed use of car park after check out whilst we visited local attraction.

Location great virtually next door to Bolsover Castle.
Room spacious and very comfortable with large shower room.
Beautifully decorated and warm and friendly hosts.
On top floor of a lovely public house with tapas restaurant. The room was cut off from below and very quiet.
Excellent breakfast.

We stayed here last night after trying to visit Bolsover Castle (which sadly was closed due to a bit of ice).
We had a very warm welcome from Steve and the staff, even the patrons in the bar area were very friendly. We booked a table for dinner at 6pm and the food was delicious, home cooked and fresh. The prices were great too. The staff were exemplary and could not do enough to look after us. I had a shandy (as I don't really drink) and they even gave me a small glass of lemonade so I could mix it how I wanted it, amazing. The bedroom was on the top floor so it's nice and quite, and due to the weather being extremely cold they even put an extra electric heater in the room so it was very toasty. The room was clean and very comfortable, all you'd expect in a decent hotel, this was better than many we've stayed in around London etc for double/triple the price. There is ample free car, parking at the back of hotel so you don't need to worry about a parking fine. The whole building is beautifully decorated and is very homely. The breakfast was delicious and my wife had the fruit bowl which she loved. We will definitely be going back to stay and eat, but I warmer weather. Thanks to Steve and all the staff that looked after us.
