貝斯特韋斯特丹寇特飯店（Best Western Deincourt Hotel）

1 night stay Room 40, bed butted against the wall fun as a couple. Extremely dated requires refurbishment. Bedding has an awful smell of stale sweat. White linen is stained, marks up the wall. Above us, people with loud TV constantly dropping stuff. We managed a few hours of sleep until another guest was banging to get in shouting to his mate about losing his phone. Terrible night, we have a 3 hour drive home were shattered.

The best thing about this hotel just on the edge of the centre of Newark is the staff who really went above and beyond in making us feel welcome. The rooms were perfectly good for this price point, great shower, breakfast and WiFi. The bar had a fine pint of Guinness with sky sports.

This hotel is in urgent need of renovation! Alex Polizzi the hotel inspector would have a field day! Although the linen and overall room / bathroom cleanliness is pleasing, there are scuff marks over every wall and skirting; the actual mattresses are poor and uncomfortable. It looks like it hasn’t been redecorated since the 1980’s. Against that, it is within easy walking distance of the town centre but the hotel car park is small. The staff are very friendly and very helpful. A shout out to the chef, Ray. It is a pity, the location is great, but Best Western desperately need to redecorate before the hotel slides further into disrepair.

The reception and breakfast staff were both polite and welcoming. However the hotel is very dated and in need of some refurbishment. Scuff marks on the furniture and walls in the room were common and the single glazing meant that we barely slept due to the road traffic. There’s little or no sound proofing in the rooms so the guests partying in the room above at 2am added to the noise. A bathroom door, albeit locked, faced on to the corridor and it would be easy to have a conversation with other guests in the corridor. The furnishings in the room were very dated and sparse.

WELL WHAT CAN I SAY AFTER READING SOME VERY NEGATIVE REVIEWS I WAS UNSURE IF THIS WAS GOING TO BE OK. HOW WRONG WAS I YES ITS A BIT DATED IN PARTS , HOWEVER ROOM WAS CLEAN AS WAS BEDDING AND LOVELY LARGE WHITE FLUFFYTOWELS. SHOWER WAS GOOD. THESTAF HERE ARE SO WARM AND WELCOMING. A SPECIAL MENTION TO ANDREA, SHE TALKED ME THROUGH ALL WHAT WAS ON OFFER FOR BREAKFAST, NOTHING WAS TOO MUCH TROUBLE AND ALL DONE WITHA SMILE. THE CHEF COOKED OUR EGGS TO ORDER , FOOD WAS PLENTIFUL AND GOOD QUALITY, I PARTICULARLY LIKED THE SAUSAGE GOOD QUALITYMEATY & HERBY. ANDREA GAVE US SOME GREAT INFO ON PLACES TO VISIT AND WE CHOSE TO GO SOUTHWELL MINSTER RECCOMENDED BY ANDREA. IT WAS FANTASTIC, THE VOLUNTEERS THERE WERE SO WELCOMING AND DIDNT HESITATE TOGUIDEUS THROUGH SOME OF THE ARTIFACTS AND HISTORY OF THE PLACE. WE THEN WALKED INTO SOUTHWELL ITSELF. LOTS OF LOVELY INDEPENDEANT SHOPS AND CAFES. I WE GO TO NEWARK AGAIN WEWOULDNT HESITATE IN BOOKING DEINCOURT, GREAT LOCATION, HOWEVER THE BIG DRAW FOR US WAS THE STAFF, OUTSTANDING

There was some confusion regarding the “breakfasts included” part of my booking on arrival. Reception paperwork indicated “room only”. I was asked to provide evidence and it was only due to me forwarding a screenshot to my partner showing bed & breakfast included, that fortunately I was believed. We had to change rooms due to a damp, musty odour in the initial room but were offered an alternative, which was much better. Highly recommend the Gluten Free options at breakfast. Andrea & Roy went above and beyond. Thank you.
