Sopwell House Hotel

Everything and absolutely beautiful hotel, stunningly clean with fantastic facilities. The Brasserie restaurant was very good and actually very good value.

Beautiful hotel with classy decor. The staff were so professional and friendly. The food was excellent.

A friend and I had afternoon tea here and it was amazing! Such fab decor in every space in the hotel, and lovely staff. Food was incredible, service really good and I must shout out Santhiya who went the extra mile to make sure we had the best time! We’d put on the booking that it was for a birthday and without prompting she came over with a cake - so kind! Everything was perfect. Thank you!

Sopwell House is a brilliantly run hotel where the service from every single staff member is the primary reason I’ll definitely be returning. The Club at Cottonmill spa facilities are top quality, and the massages we received were absolutely fantastic. We loved having multiple high-end restaurants to choose from, (our meal at Omboo was incredible) and the cocktails in the bar were expertly crafted. From the spa to the dining, to the breakfast delivered to the room. Every detail was spot on.

Booked a 1 night stay as a treat staying in a Mews Suite which included access to The Cottonmill Club Spa. We arrived at around 12 to make full use of the spa. Our room wasn’t ready but we were aware of this. The spa is excellent if you use the cottonmill club. I wouldn’t visit just to use the standard spa as it isn’t worth it in my opinion.
Our room was ready just after 2pm but we made the most of the spa. The check in staff were very friendly and showed us to our room, where everything was.
There were a few things missing for the high cost of this room which has stopped me giving the full 5 stars. There are complimentary drinks in the fridge, including glass bottles of Coke, beer etc. However there was no bottle opener in the room which seemed odd so we had to phone reception for this. It took about 20 minutes to arrive. Also, none of the USB plugs worked in the room we were staying in which was irritating for charging phones etc.
Everything else was great. Lovely breakfast, friendly staff, and great spa if you use the club!

The grounds are beautiful and very clean

Really relaxing day at the Club at Cottonmill Spa. Second visit. Such an amazing body scrub and wonderfully relaxing massage with Carolina. I felt so looked after and nurtured. I floated back to London

Wow wow wow. My daughter and I had the best meal ever at Sopwell Houses' Omboo restaurant. I cannot rave about it enough. The staff were amazing and really knew their stuff. The ambiance was very perfectly intimate. The food was absolutely sublime. For a special occasion or a romantic meal, I would highly recommend Omboo. Thank you Sopwell for the most amazing memorable evening - one I will never forget.

The space, everything was immaculate

I recently stayed at Sopwell House for one night to celebrate a birthday. I initially booked a Plush Room for £319, paid an additional £15 for a birthday cake and also added breakfast to the booking.

On arrival, we were told we had been given a Chic Room instead. This was presented as an upgrade, but when we got to the room it felt very small and quite underwhelming. It honestly made me question the difference between the room categories, as it did not feel like an upgrade at all.

The hotel itself is really nice. The grounds are lovely and the overall atmosphere feels relaxing and well maintained. However, to pay over £300 for one night, especially when check in is at 3pm and check out is at 11am the next day, does not give you a huge amount of time to fully enjoy the facilities.

Another disappointment was the spa access. Despite paying over £300 for one night, we only had access to the Cotton Mill spa facilities. To use the Club Spa, we were told it would cost an additional £120 per person, which I found quite shocking given the overall price of the stay. The spa facilities that were included were fairly basic, just a standard swimming pool, jacuzzi and sauna, and did not feel particularly special or luxurious.

From what we saw and heard, the Club Spa is probably the best part of the hotel and looks like the highlight of the experience. However, it being an additional charge on top of an already expensive stay was disappointing. I do think there should be more affordable options for overnight guests who want to enjoy that part of the hotel.

Breakfast was included and was decent enough, with the usual options such as scrambled eggs and standard hot breakfast items. It was not bad, but it was nothing particularly memorable.

Unfortunately, the birthday cake in the room also missed the mark. Although I had clearly requested “Happy Birthday” on the note, it arrived saying “Congratulations,” which was disappointing given it was meant to be a special celebration.

Overall, we did have a nice stay and it is a really nice hotel. However, for the price paid, it simply did not feel worth it. I expected a more luxurious experience, better value for money and more attention to detail, especially for a birthday occasion.

Today I was instructed by Laszlo &maggie Laszlo is such a fantastic all rounder. He knows all the gym and has a great command of to use the gym with IT. He brings a new excitement to using the gym. Extremely well done Laszlo and Maggie. John Vercoe
