I thought it would be noisy being so close to a road but the secondary glazing worked a treat. Slept like a log on the extremely comfy bed. This is one of the nicest hotels I have ever stayed in, lots of facilities including heaters in a massive glass roofed canopy in a seating area for us smokers or anyone who wants to sit outside. Lovely decoration in the rooms/pub/hotel etc. Not like a chain hotel at all, very warm and friendly like a family run hotel. Had a Christmas meal there with some colleagues, food was excellent and the staff were always on hand for drinks etc. Thoroughly recommend the squid!!!

The only downside was before leaving, I went outside for a cigarette and when I came back in my key card did not work and had to wait ages for someone to come to reception to get it to work again but even then I could only gain access to the main door to the hotel rooms - my actual room would not open. I had to get one of the housemaids to open the room for me.

The location was excellent for the train station and all the facilities of the town. We loved the decor in the rooms and bathrooms. The pub was decorated for Christmas and looked lovely (all done by the lady on reception and her family so please credit her for this!) We had a super breakfast and the server, Michael, went out of his way to accommodate us. I would definitely stay here again and would recommend to anyone who is looking to have a weekend away in London who doesn’t want to stay in the city. Large car park with EV charger and they kindly let us leave our car there after we’d checked out whilst we spent the day in London. A great find!

Nothing, all fabulous!

Staff all fantastic, accommodated small request to move soap holder in the bathroom. Bed comfortable and very quiet in room, well presented and clean. Good ventilation. Shower excellent. Large floor area, nice carpet. Good amount of tea/coffee/biscuits etc. Both nights sleep comfortable. Food in restaurant very nice, reasonable prices. Location most convenient to town centre.

Soap holder position in bathroom quite cramped to right shoulder, more of a design issue as limits sink access. But staff were extremely helpful to accommodate. May be useful if small fridge in some rooms, as difficult to keep items from supermarket - juice/milk etc.

Better than expected.Some old reviews left us hesitant to book but this pub's accommodation has been vastly improved with full renovation. Rooms are well appointed with lovely decor, well designed bathrooms and very comfortable beds. Overall easily beating a well-known purple coloured hotel chain. Short 5 minute walk to mainline train station serving London. Cinema, restaurants and cafes nearby plus a Tesco supermarket. Pub noise was not noticed and parking free for hotel guests. Reception welcome was warming and efficient. Staff all pleasant.

Just two issues which spoilt the stay; 1. litter in the car parking area and walking route to reception 2. Breakfast service: No fruit (told they had run out); no tea bags immediately available; hot water flasks empty; no cups or glasses available for use/not replenished; staff unprepared with tables not laid for arriving breakfast guests. This led to us cancelling our breakfast in preference to a local cafe breakfast at Fego, Station Road which was excellent.

A second wonderful stay at the Ethorpe! Our go to place now when travelling to visit family locally. A very convenient and comfortable stay. Housekeeping are very attentive and the facilities are so clean. Michael in the restaurant is just one of the loveliest humans you’ll meet, very kind and accommodating. Lily and Ina on reception are so friendly and helpful. We couldn’t be more grateful. Thank you and hopefully see you again soon! 😊

No complaints! Only change made would have been to have a firmer mattress but we know that is personal preference.

Room was large which was pleasantly surprising. Nice touch with the tea and decent coffee and fresh milk! Bed was comfortable and shower a good size. Pleased we had an iron and hairdryer(although i didnt see this for a while as in wardrobe). 11am checkout which was great. We emailed to ask if we could get early entry to the room as we had a wedding to go to and were delighted that the staff facilitated this for us- excellent customer service. Thank you!

Slight noise from corridor door opening and closing by other guests but not an issue really.

I had a really easy and relaxed stay at the Ethorpe, which I believe has been recently refurbished and is very clean, comfortable and nicely decorated. The room was furnished nicely, and quiet, with all the facilities I needed, and everything worked well. The staff were friendly and helpful, the hotel was in a great location (near local shops, and the train station, with direct train into London), the food in the restaurant below was good, and generally there was a good atmosphere.

I can't really think of anything. Maybe it would be good to have a safe in the room. But generally I felt very safe and secure there.

When we arrived we were greeted by the lovely Lily. Lily was so welcoming, helpful and caring. The room was beautiful and the food was delicious. All the staff were pleasant and so helpful. Michael looked after us in the morning during breakfast and like Lily went out of his way to make sure we were looked after and had everything we needed. I didn't catch the name of the nice young man who helped me in the bar but like all the wonderful staff at Ethorpe Park, nothing was too much trouble. A big thank you to all the team.

We were a party of 20+ and we hadn't booked a table for lunch (it was a surprise birthday). Soph, our waitress, was extremely efficient and organised three tables together for us. She looked after us throughout the meal, taking multiple drink and food orders. She took a group photo for us, she really went above and beyond. She is a valuable member of your team; she is kind and thoughtful, with a great sense of humour.

We stayed in room 21, which was beautifully decorated, but a little dark. Otherwise perfect.

We have stayed here many times over the last 5 years as it’s position and access to London is fantastic and it means we can drive from the North and park on-site (for free) when we are attending a concert or event in London. Brilliant location, near to station and direct train link to Marleybone. We’ve always found the bar area, the staff, the grounds and the breakfasts really great - but although the rooms have always been clean and comfortable, they were a little outdated and tired. WELL, we came back to stay for our 6th time in January 2024 and the refurbishment is wonderful!! Our room was stunning- stylish, modern, spotless, spacious - with lovely accessories and furnishings. Small gestures - tea/coffee/biscuits, chocolates on pillow, welcome note etc - little extras that make it more special. Our bathroom was lovely with a fantastic shower and big fluffy soft towels. Well done to everybody - the refurbishment is wonderful and we can’t wait to come back again.

Nothing!! All excellent
