Possibly the best VFM hotel I have stayed in!

Excellent short, one night stop here, arrived about 1800, check in was smooth and quick, staff helpful and friendly, only a short walk to the room. The room was massive clean and the bed very comfortable. It was Sunday night and there was a painter in the corridor decorating, but quiet and no bother. Room had all the expected; toiletries, towels, Wi-Fi, large tv and even a trouser press. We were up and out at 0600 the next morning to race in a local triathlon at Belvoir Castle, night porter was cheerful and polite as we left. It’s easy to find, just off the motorway, has a pub only a 2min drive away for food and Grantham and Belvoir Castle close by. VFM this has to be one of the best one night stops I’ve had in a hotel, it was less than £60 on hotels.com and I don’t have anything negative to say. Will definitely use again when I’m in the area.

Good location for using Fulbeck karting circuit

The room was clean and spacious. We had a boardroom. The staff were friendly. No food or drinks available at the hotel which we knew in advance. However plenty of places close by.

Arrived at 1am, got to the room and found it was not what we had booked. The room we required was not available. The shower only had one temperature and that was scolding hot so couldn’t be used. After speaking to reception (whom the staff were lovely couldn’t fault them) they was unable to provide us a different room that night but managed to change us to a family room for our second night stay. Rooms are dated, beds were comfortable.

Good value and no frills

free parking - impressive reception area - but carpet quality is poor in hallways. Our room was decent size with TV and shower area [all looks new] and the room was pleasantly cool as the temp outside was 30C and there is no air con in the room. Bed was comfortable and we had a good night's sleep. At £63 for the night we thought it very good value. The only down side is that there is no on site restaurant for evening or breakfast but there is a restaurant nearby.

We have stayed at this hotel a few times . We have always had a good experience. The thing that lets this hotel down is how scruffy it is around the hotel.

The Urban Leisure Grantham has so much potential and at first glance looks smart and welcoming but in truth there is very little attention to detail paid to fixtures and fittings and despite reporting a significant safety issue immediately upon checking in, this had still not been resolved two days later when checking out. Plug socket damaged - unsafe and risk of electrocution. Key card door lock not functional. “Double” bed was two singles of differing heights pushed together. Chair useless as bottom had fallen out of it. Table wonky with the top loose. Fan promised by receptionist on hottest day of the year never materialised. “Damage must have been caused by previous occupants” is only valid so far!
Unsafe plug socket - potential source of electrocution.

Dated but decent

Starting with the positives... great customer service... front desk super friendly. Clean property and temp control fine. Down sides... room is pretty dated and the bed is pretty soft. For the money not too bad.

It is what it is

Hotel is what it is. Rather dated but clean and perfunctory. Perfect for a stopover to break a journey. No breakfast or other food available. Bathroom and bedroom were clean. Bed not very comfortable: mattresses old and worn. If you're not expecting anything flashy it is fine.

I presume this property will be undergoing a program of refurbishment as it is so dated. Comfortable bed & convenient but needs a definite upgrade

The room was spacious & comfortable. Bed very comfortable. Bathroom sink could have been cleaned better, but the rest of it was clean. It would have been better if we could have had breakfast there & the outside garden was available to sit in. All the staff were excellent & we would stay again.

Staff were very friendly and helpful. My room was very clean, well equipped with everything I could have needed. Quiet, a comfortable bed and a great powerful shower! Free parking. Very accessible, very affordable, The only downside was no food but there was a lovely restaurant just a few minutes walk up the road. Would definitely stay again :)
