Delta Hotels Breadsall Priory Country Club

Stayed here whilst on business… Beautiful hotel on the outside with well maintained gardens… Inside slightly dated and could do with a small investment but overall was lovely… Gym and pool was good

Lovely location, (pretty village) lovely grounds and impressive entrance. However, we weren’t in the main hotel. The room was large but old fashioned. The roof sloped at the sides which we banged our heads on several times. The window was small which made it stuffy and it was very dark, no main light in the bedroom only lamps. Bed was king size and comfortable. The room and bathroom was clean. We used the restaurant once for dinner and we had 2 breakfasts and the food was nice and reasonable priced. Breakfast was self service (as ours was included) with a good and plentiful variety. The staff were friendly and helpful but professional. We didn’t use the pool in the end as it meant going outside and back inside, as our room was not connected to a covered route to the pool. Nothing really to complain about but we did expect the room to be a bit more luxurious. Slightly overpriced for the room. I expect the price was based on the available amenities.

Very disappointed. Staff other than at reception were indifferent to the customers. Slow service in the restaurant. Never asked if we wanted a drink with the meal. Food was greasy and when we mentioned it never said sorry, just "I'll tell the chef". Grounds great:-)

Really nice place to stay for a quiet peaceful break. Lots of area to walk round and nice bar areas to relax in

The establishment and staff are fantastic Kris who's the duty manager is a great manager but from there it goes down hill dramatically. The breakfast was cooked a week ago I'm sure, the afternoon meal was ok but service is thin and it's not the staffs fault they actually try but just not enough staff. The spa was like a kindergarten pool with no policing and became uninhabitable for a couple to relax and this was all day. The mattress in the room was what I'd consider close to concrete. This all stems down from cost cutting at the top and nothing to do with the staff like I say they was fantastic when that could be. It's such a shame as when you arrive you think your in for a amazing weekend only to compare to a Butlins stay.

Following the recent refurbishments, Breadsall Priory has returned to it's previous excellent standard. New staff are all learning their skills and providing very good service.

Good intro upon arrival with a very friendly receptionist, although a bit information overload - almost forgot where room was by the time we’d been told everything else! Thankfully a map is provided as it seems a bit of a maze to begin with, but actually it’s not that hard to get around. Due to the age and the nature of the buildings there are a small staircases all over the place; not an issue if your mobility is ok - would be an issue for those requiring a more accessible place to stay. We were in Room 201 - right above main entrance. Automatic door mechanism for the main door below was audible throughout the evening but wasn’t a problem at night. The bed was big with what felt like a very thin duvet for this time of year (late Oct) but I was actually over-hot in the room, so no drama there. The room was itself was clean and well presented, but the furniture is a bit awkward, with a chair in front of the fridge. Didn’t use the TV so can’t comment on that. The bathroom was pretty small, but functional. Room service had forgotten to refill the shampoo, but I had my own in my wash bag, so not a problem. Didn’t really rate the shower gel etc. - there are much nicer smelling things in the supermarket than whatever brand it was. The spa was really busy when we arrived at 16:30 so avoid peak hours. The steam room had an odd unpleasant smell, so didn’t spend long in there. Didn’t eat our evening meal here, but breakfast was good - but no black pudding or poached eggs :(

Beautiful building and grounds. Friendly and helpful staff. felt that though the food in the restaurant was good, it was somewhat overpriced. There was a distinct lack of staff for breakfast on our 2nd morning and because all the plates were cold, the food was also cold by the time we got it to our table. Though not a criticism, this hotel cannot be recommended for anyone with mobility difficulties. There is a small lift in part of the building but when I tried to use it, the door jammed and the light inside didn't work! Otherwise, a very enjoyable stay.

Great hotel in spectacular grounds. We stayed in the mews which was the old coach house. Will visit again
