Stayed here at the Rugby Hotel for two nights in mid-September for business. Very polite staff and nothing was too much trouble. The hotel is currently undergoing some refurbishment and was of no inconvenience to me. …

The staff could not have been more helpful with the party held here, nothing was too much trouble. Everywhere was lovely and clean; our room was more than adequate, the bed was very comfortable - all for a most basic price and the en suite was modern and efficient. Breakfast could not be faulted - highly recommend!

Unsure what to expect as the hotel was mid refurbishment and there were several bad reviews. We had two bedrooms which were both well equiped, especially the bathrooms which had exceptional fittings and decoration. …

Don't be put off by cosmetic damage to wood and paintwork. The linen is sumptuous, bathroom immaculate. I have stayed there 3 nights and only heard a siren for the first time today. No airplane, pub or train noise to speak of. Asda has almost anything you need if you've forgotten something. Iron, ironing board, kettle, hairdryer provided. They lent me cutlery as I took to buying salads from Asda and left my stuff at work. I used their fridge as there are none in the room. It's spacious and cosy downstairs. TV up and downstairs.
