The upper floors have recently been refurbished and the rooms were very clean and the shower looks like new. Only had a double but the room was well laid out and cosy. Breakfast was good, lots of choice. The feel of the hotel is very nice and spacious. Car parking was easy and free and there were electric points for charging your car if you needed them.

The room was rather hot even though there was no heating turned on in the room. There was a fan to use. Weather was not particularly hot outside so would be unsure about staying there in the Summer months. Made it a little uncomfortable to sleep even with the window open.

Upon arrival I was met by a very cheerful lady who handled my arrival with great professionalism, the room I was allocated was easily found, later in the evening I went to the restaurant and bar again I was met by a happy waiter he saw me to a table of my choosing and brought me my chosen drink while I waited for my work colleague to arrive. For a meeting and dinner, we had a few drinks and enjoyed an excellent meal, served by excellent happy staff. Again at checkout it was a simple process conducted by again a pleasant lady.

Due to the A45 having problematic road works I believe signage on the road and within the grounds would assist visitors.

We had lunch on arrival, which was excellent, but the wine list was a bit limited. The room was clean and adequate for an overnight stay. The bathroom was in good order, a weakness in many other hotels. My only point of concern was the sloping roof being a health and safety risk, I lightly touched it with my forehead twice, spotting it a little late. my advice is to move the bed away from that as far as possible, this would mean the bedside table and sockets may need to be moved, so this may need to be planned to fit in with re-decoration. In the meantime, a Stripe could be painted down the edge of the slope to make it more obvious.

Just the health and safety point mentioned above

We sort of got the room I requested as we are regulars now. The was great and cosy, however it creaked which made for a fitful nights sleep. The food is excellent and always hot. The service was brilliant.

I always ak for a quiet room on the 1st floor and at the end of the corridor avoiding any proximity to the fire doors. This time despite being told I would get room I had the last time (I did mention it at booking in and the person ignored that) we got one by a fire door. Luckily the hotel was not busy so no massive traffic. The early start of the hot water system was not welcome and on the Saturday it started later.?? Why does it make a noise anyway. The bed creaked, easily solved as the shower door that does not close.

Room was okay, but felt a bit dated (which apparently depends on the part of the hotel you're staying at; some rooms have been renovated). Nice big lobby &. bar. We've ordered some food there which was delicious. They were also very accommodating with the check-in times, we've arrived a few hours ahead of the standard check-in, but were allowed to get to our rooms around 12. Lovely area outside, with a big screen on with various sports on to watch 👍.

The location was brilliaant just off the A45. The room was great for a 3 star and very clean. Having tried numerous other hotels in the Rugby area even as far a Daventry this is the best all rounder with pleasant staff as standard not as an option with others. The test was to be the food wich was brilliant and served with defereence with an attentive staff. ie the double cheesburger was just that a double pattie as oppose to others who think a double cheesburger is 2 types of cheese - really. This is a rare find and judging on this first visit will not be the last as it hits all the right buttons.

Quiet room was not so quiet largely due to some ballon stomping around upstairs at 05:00 - clearly not the hotels fault, however the rear car park has the sort of golfer that has yet to experience self control after a bad game so numerous driver left with wheels spinning - perhaps a laser cannon for offenders.

Pleasant room with full facilities ie tea/coffee iron and ironing board. Bed HUGE and v.comfortable. Window could be opened for real fresh air - BONUS!. Breakfast selection of cereal adequate and coffee really good in quality and size of mug. But cooked breakfast - WOW. Best poached eggs I've had in many a journey away. Thanks Draycote for making my short stay enjoyable. PS Your staff are spot on, very helpful and polite.

Smallest of niggles - like to listen to Greatest Hits Radio normally available via TV in room, but not so in this case. Got around it by putting laptop up :-)

Breakfast was lovely, plenty of choice and luckily we got there just before the employees from a meeting arrived for their breakfast which became very noisy whilst they were queuing for food.

Maybe companies who have meetings could have their breakfast in the meeting rooms as when the large number arrived and queued through the breakfast room, it became very noisy and cluttered.

The room seems a little tired but mostly quiet and comfortable. No noise from outside just thoughtless guests slamming doors - but hey nothing new. The food is excellent and hot.

Noisy guests but I've never been able to do anything about that as shouting does not work. Not bad this time just the odd bang of the door. The hotel cannot do anything about that except perhaps check the self shutting mechanisms.

Very good value. At the price, excellent lounge, bar and restaurant facilities. We needed to hang around for several hours while waiting to meet others and the lounge and bar were ideal for our needs. Excellent attentive staff. Excellent breakfast and decent dinner.

On a busy main road so no chance of walking to get anywhere or just to walk, so you need a car or be prepared to use taxis
