Honeymoon suite superbly comfy. Spotless and stylish. Shower could do with an overhaul but plenty of hot water. Very helpful staff and warm welcome. Great stay. Thank you

Restaurant not open Monday or Tuesday, no cafe. This needs to be shown on the hotel write up as misleading. Room no fridge working, kettle had mould inside so could not make drinks. Shower no hot water, shower mat mouldy. Deluxe windows leaking water down the wall and bedboards,cobwebs and dust everywhere not good, decor dated and peeling off walls. No remote control for tv. No food Monday or Tuesday unless you were a friend or staff??? No direction for initial registration on arrival as door.locked had to guess re entry and find bar entrance

The room was lovely, and re entry decorated. The bath and shower was not functioning properly. The water didn't run hot, and on the first day we had a tepid shower. The tap fell off in my hand. The shower head was full of timescale and which meant water went at odd angles.

This is a hotel attached to a sports bar. The car park is tiny. Had to park outside a shop and walk to hotel. Check in was so noisy and loud could not hear what was said. Restaurant was closed for private wine tasting. This was not on website. Music played loudly until 02:05am when I rang the pub and asked how much longer the music would play. The person who answered said they were not aware anyone was in. This was worrying as booked via website and completed registration form, had hotel needed to evacuate during the night, would I have been forgotten. Loud, noisy place. Room was nice as was person at check in, but lack of Restaurant and noise level means I would not recommend. It should be made clear that one of the bars is a sports bar

Poor Service.
The hole room wasn't clean and it wasn't the same room that we asked for. And omg the only thing that was clean was the bed sheets, TV didn't work and the money it cost isn't worth it not for £280 not for only 3 nights, we stayed there as we had business in the area. Never will we both be staying here again all pictures will be going onto Google reviews.

The hotel was lovely and clean. We can't remember the ladies name that checked us in but she was ever so polite, she also ran the bar, took our food order and cleared the tables as well. She was amazing at her job. The meal we had was great and very reasonably priced. Would definitely stay here again

Hi Alison,We have people checking out from 7am (it can be even earlier) and as you can understand in such a small hotel it is not economically feasible to have staff at work for an additional 5 hours prior to opening 7 days a week and this has not been an issue for the last 6years.There is someone on the premises 24hours a day which covers all emergency situations.

I was made welcome by caring staff The room was beautiful and the bed very comfortable I have since had a very helpful email exchange with Team Draper. I appreciate as they explained that the lack of individual toiletries was to rightly avoid plastic waste but they have agreed to look into providing shampoo and conditioner to supplement the basic hand and body wash

I have stayed here twice, but did not realise until I arrived a year later (travel with work so stay out a lot). No parking on site No breakfast available No comfortable area to sit and work No food on Mondays / Tuesdays I also requested someone help with the TV settings, a message was sent, but no-one confirmed they were not going to help, or did anyone attend to this need. Very disappointed- I’m not going to stay again.

Hi, Very little has changed over the years, with plenty of parking usually available with 60 yards of the property.The only real change is we stopped breakfasts over 1 year ago due to it no longer being financially viable for a small venue like ours in the current financial climate.I hope you have been able to find suitable accommodation near by.

We have changed laundry suppliers and have had issue with timeliness of the clean bedding arriving, sometimes not arriving until the afternoon. This has since been resolved.The room had been fully cleaned.I believe you left the hotel for a short while and your room was made up immediately you left, as the clean bedding had arrived shortly beforehand.

Like nothing. No breakfast on offer. Tiny room and bathroom. Stayed 5 nights, no housekeeping at all. Room wasnt ready when we arrived from a 24 hr trip at gone 3pm. Had to sit in scruffy sports bar with the very young adults and huge dog. We are all in our 70's. No food and no after hours drinks for residents!

I am taking the opportunity to expand on your comments - which I would not usually do, but feel it necessary in this instance.It specifically mentions on Expedia that breakfast is not available. We stopped this around 8 months ago, although have made exceptions if requested in certain circumstances. You booked and paid for a specific room - which is the room you were allocated and shown to. All our rooms are very different in design and size, as per the photos on Expedia. You were aware all our room were booked by your family - we did not allocate rooms, they were chosen by you and by your family.On being shown your room - I personally asked if you would like your room to have a full clean and laundry change for the 3rd of 4th night of your stay, you said not to bother you would be fine. I informed you that if you needed anything, supplies or clean towels to ask the girls at anytime. When you arrived you were given complimentary alcoholic drinks of your choice while you waited less than 10 minutes for your room to be finished.I object to your description of the sports bar - and yes there was a Service Dog in the sports bar, along with people of "all" ages, enjoying sports TV, and playing pool.You arrived back to the hotel (8 of you) at 9pm on the Sunday evening demanding (in a very abrasive manner) that I open the restaurant and the kitchen and provide meals for the 8 of you. Which I did, and which you were not charged for. One of your company run up a bar bill and left without paying too.We are a small hotel of just 7 rooms, situated in a very small village.We are licensed until midnight during the week and 1am over the weekend, this is when our bars are open and staffed. To expect/demand for us to staff the kitchen and front of house, with appliances hot ready to provide service for food and drink outside of our usual opening hours 7 days a week is neither viable for such a small establishment, and not reasonable to expect it.We always welcome feedback, as everyone will have varied opinions and we value them - but they need to be an honest account of the situation and circumstances.

Over priced for quality you get
First time we had stayed at the Drapers hotel, from the outside it looks very nice, they have a big outdoor seating area which is under a canopy and a big screen. We were shown to our room which was supposed to be a deluxe room with a queen bed, although the room was ok it was very small and it was definitely not a queen bed. There was cobwebs literally all over the room, you didnt have to go looking for them they were very visible and the room had obviously not been cleaned very well. The bathroom was nice but when i flushed the chain it broke and wouldn't flush, we went out for the night and told one of the girls about the toilet, when we came back it had not been fixed, nobody came the following day either, in fact nobody came the 3 days we were there. The room never got serviced no clean towels or bed sheets. For the money you pay you would expect alot more if im honest. Sadly we will not be returning.

Although the bed was comfortable and I slept well I found the room disappointing considering I paid £97. I found cobwebs in the room, water stains on the wall, grime in the bathroom sink and a broken bath plug. Again parking was an issue I went out for the evening and came back after midnight and couldn’t park in the car park. My only option was to park outside the Coop which I found unacceptable. I have stayed here twice but there won’t be a third stay.

The hotel was adequate, however on arrival there was a mix up around our booking furthermore there was not an option for breakfast as the hotel didn’t provide such service. The only place to get breakfast was either a car drive or the cafe across the road. This was however only one on certain days and had a very limited menu. The bar staff on the Sunday was not very friendly and lacked enthusiasm to serve us. The hotel cleaner and owner however were extremely friendly and chatty.

Arrived at 2.30pm - no obvious checking in desk and difficult to find staff as there was a party going on. Once I found a member of staff they were very helpful and polite and check in was good. Room had no toilet paper - requested some before I went out but when I returned at 9pm there was still none so had to go back down to the bar and ask for some. Bed very comfy. Room overlooked courtyard and although people were out there it didn’t disturb me. Several lightbulbs not working in the room including one of the ones over the bed. Having read other reviews was prepared for the fact that there is very little parking and I parked easily enough on the High Street. Shower very powerful but no complimentary shampoo, only conditioner. Overall though good value for money and suitable for my needs.
