The Normanton Park hotel was excellent. The experience with Expedia and our original hotel booking was terrible. We booked several weeks in advance and had a confirmed booking by Expedia at the other hotel, the booking was cancelled at short notice by a phone call from the hotel. It took me 3 hours on the phone to get Expedia to find us another hotel in the area. The original hotel was no help at all, Expedia suggested we call the hotel direct and rebook at a higher cost. Expedia & the other hotel terrible. Normanton Park hotel excellent.

Great location bested only by great service.

The staff were some of the best I've experienced, from the front desk to the restaurant. All went out of their way to be helpful and make my visit special. The hotel location, right off the walkway around Rutland Water was wonderful. Great views and easy access to the nearby marina and basic cafe. And the restaurant was in an orangery facing the water...beautiful. The on-site restaurant offerings were spot on. The breakfast service was your basic English breakfast but well done, high quality, and attentive service. Dinner was perfectly done...only 4 or 5 appetizer and 4 or 5 main course offerings. But these were high quality, properly cooked dishes and, from what I had, all fresh ingredients. Excellent dining experience. The only reason I didn't give a score of 10 across the board was the following... In booking through an app, I think I got one of the last rooms at a great rate. But the hallway leading to the room and the room and bathrooms themselves small, not much room for my bags and no real desk room. All of that is a little tricky for a 6'4" tall person. Still, I would definitely return to enjoy what overall was a great experience.

Not impressed. A splendid hotel, but poor service.

Waited 15 minutes for someone to appear at Reception. We and another guest hunted around for staff. No apology when a man eventually found time to check us in.

Good view of the Lake

After we upgraded our room, we were much happier and it had a view of the lake. The initial room was supposedly with a courtyard view but there wasn’t one and it was so cramped. We had a lovely stay. The meals were good and the staff very helpful and pleasant

Paid extra for the better room. No cold water through the shower so water was scalding. Used bath instead using kettle to take cold water from sink to cool water do. Spa feature if the bath did not work. Could hear the plumbing from room above us and when they were walking around it was loud. Breakfast was warm to cold. Was disappointed because it is in a beautiful setting and close enough that we would have visited again.

The little things let it down

Overall the hotel was very nice however I’ve stay in hotels almost weekly either for business or for leisure and there were things at this hotel that I have not experienced for a very long time. They only serve breakfast until 9:30 am which weekend is exceptionally early. And checkout is 10:30 am which I have almost never ever experienced. They charge £15 an hour for late checkout which is particularly high for a three star hotel. The staff were very nice and the food was good although breakfast was pretty average and at £12.95 should have been better than average. The views over the lake are lovely.
