Disliked: Staff & service, amenities
Having stayed at other JW Lees properties, I was a little disappointed by my stay at the Boat House. The accommodation felt like a rundown Premier Inn and my room needed some attention. The toilet bowl was damaged and the bathroom just didn't feel clean. The restaurant lacked any flair and the staff just delivered food with no interest. Breakfast was poor quality which surprised me as I would have expected a higher standard (through prior experiences). Perhaps my expectations of the Boat and Horses was unfairly higher but I probably wouldn't stay again.

Some great staff. Shout out to Kaye who was looking after our room, nothing was too much trouble. There was a great young lady served us in the bar who helped made our stay an enjoyable one. I didn’t get her name unfortunately but she has a great singing voice.

Inside the holes of the hotel, and in the hotel rooms was a very musky smell. And I guess I learned you really get what you pay for. The room was fine and larger than some others that we had stayed in during this trip. The food at the restaurant for dinner was actually pretty good.

OK but not great

A decent place with good room amenities and a comfortable bed. The breakfast buffet was tasty with lots of options. The carpet in my room was in need of a good shampoo, it was not very clean. The staircase was in similar condition. And while I appreciate being energy efficient, entering a dark hallway (lights are motion activated) on my floor when coming and going made me uncomfortable.

Good val

We had a spacious room on the ground floor with a large bathroom. The place was spotless and reasonably well equipped. Coffee, tea and hot chocolate supplied with cookies. There was also a hairdryer and an iron. No fridge or air con although the windows do open slightly but it is close to a busy road so this was quite noisy. One thing irritated me was the mirror was too far away from the sockets when using the hairdryer. We didnt have interact much with the staff but they were friendly and polite when we did.
