Mattress was comfortable, bedding was good, towels were okay. Shower pressure was good. Sleeping area was adequate for one night.
The room (which I paid extra for to access from 12 noon) was a very small double that was the furthest it possibly could be from the main hotel, with single glazing and a noisy main road. The bathroom was very dated with incorrectly aligned mucky taps, cracked and dirty tiling/screens and mouldy looking windows. Noise from water system when other rooms were using bathrooms. Tried to add photos but couldn't. Additionally we left behind our wash bag with electric toothbrushes, Thierry perfume and other items and I tried on several occasions to contact the hotel about this by leaving telephone messages and messages via Booking.com but even though we had a second visit (another funeral) this has never been recovered or resolved.
Double room was a lot more spacious than our previous visit. Mattress good, bedding good and bathroom supplies okay (although I find it difficult to use the basin handwashing tube of soap and would prefer a press-top soap dispenser). Tea & coffee facilities okay. Family room was very spacious and double sofa bed set up ready to use.
In the double room the bed base was broken on one side resulting on a misalignment of the two base parts. The lampshades at the side of the bed were not fixed so they were wonky. The carpets were ill-fitting in both rooms. The decor of the hallways and communal areas in the annexe were all in serious need of updating as there were badly painted areas, dirty hand rails, wood chip wall coverings and exploding and peeling plaster. - Oh and I accidentally went upstairs in the main hotel (looking for toilets) and the handrails were really sticky! Still didn't find out about our lost items from previous visit!!!
The venue and grounds
The room was very dated could do with a refurb and good clean, the room and bathroom was quite prison like and dark and inclosed
Excellent location lovely gardens and outside space
Didn't like the room in the annexe. Would have preferred to stay in the main building
Stunning old property with lots of character and charm. Loved the terrace area .
Room was quite small. Bed small double , we are used to a super king ! Could do with updating .
I was there for my sons wedding. The day was amazing. This was very much down to the location and the amazing staff ,of which nothing seemed to be too much trouble for them. It was faultless and will be remembered with such joy and fondness. The comfort of the bed , the food, service , surroundings and the staff made it for all of us. Thank you so much.
Nothing really I cannot find a fault.
Rothley Court hotel has a lot of history attached to it which is interesting. The interior in the main building is full of panelling and interesting paintings. Breakfast was lovely with a wide choice. Ate at hotel but the village is only a 10 minute walk away.
Nothing really. We had a room in the annex which was a bit dated but comfortable. No air conditioning but we did have a fan which was perfect for us. Beautiful evening but very little shade outside. Has a great south facing garden but could do with a bit of an upgrade with more shade, not just umbrellas which aren't big enough to provide the tables with adequate shade. There is a lovely stream at the bottom - think they could make more of this and the space.
The room was adequate but in need of a spruce up, it was a bit dreary but the bed was comfortable. The hotel has a lovely exterior with plenty of historical interest but felt too dark in all areas of the interior - good lighting goes a long way. The outdoor terrace and gardens were lovely.
The food! We were at Rothley Court hotel for a wedding, the bride and groom chose to have a barbecue which consisted of pork and paprika 'foot-long' sausages, burgers, potato salad, coleslaw, sweet potato and corn on the cob. The bread rolls for the foot-long and the burgers were stale and burgers themselves were tasteless. The potato salad was adequate, the coleslaw was tart, the sweet potato was edible and the corn on the cob was dry. Were I to hazard a guess, I would say nothing was made by a chef, but simply cooked from frozen and scooped from plastic tubs. The 'barbecue' food was carried out from the kitchen and barely touched the barbecues that were outside! There was no vegetarian options readily available, they had to ask for an alternative and wait while it was cooked. The food was supposed to be served at 3pm, it was over 30 minutes late. The leftovers (of which there were plenty) were moved inside and placed on a low 'windowsill' - the sausages were left uncovered and the naked flame under the bain-marie left unattended while there were young children at the wedding both unhygienic and dangerous! We did not partake in breakfast but were told that it too was not pleasant.

Bed was comfortable
Food was terrible, room was awful and overpriced (the bed was comfortable though so that made up for the shoddy room)
