We chose the Priest House hotel for a large family gathering and it was the perfect venue. Everyone found it easy to get to from different regions of England, and although it's close to the motorway and the airport, you really can't tell as you drive down the steep little lane past Donington Park. The hotel is at the end of the lane between the river Trent and a tributary, so it feels very rural and secluded. It has a real sense of history too, being so close to the old mill wheels that still sit on the riverside. The staff were always friendly and helpful while I was organising our event, and just as supportive and receptive to our needs on the day of the gathering. The Garden Suite where we held our meal and entertainment was perfect, with its own bar and little dancefloor and access to a private area of the gardens. The food and drink were good quality. Our bedroom was in the old cottages just across the lane so I don't know what rooms in the main building are like. Ours was a bit dated but had everything we needed. The main thing I would suggest it needs is some hooks / rails in the ensuite for towels and more sockets in the bedroom for charging phones etc - small things that so many hotel rooms could do with more of! The cottages are clearly old and small so noise does carry - if you're bothered about noise from other rooms the main building is perhaps more soundproof.

Brilliant hotel always so nice to stay at. Easy to get to and as I work in transport it’s ideal for me to stay near my work places. The staff are great and always welcoming. The hotel is always clean. I’ve never had a problem at all ever when I have stayed here. 

Booked on the same day. Reception texted me with exact directions as the sat nav coordinates cover a big area, which was a great start. Arrived, checkin was smooth, double room allocated on the ground floor. Room was excellent, clean and spacious. Our window view was lovely, green trees and very quite. Ample parking. Full english cooked breakfast plus fresh fruit and pastries. Hot tea or coffee. Bed was very comfortable. My only complaint is other guest smoking outside our window. I did tell reception, who came and sprayed our room with a air freshner. We found a chinese restuarant only 10mins drive called Wong Kwei, very good food excellent service. A must visit to The National Arboretum Centre, free entry. Pre pay for parking (£4.00) to avoid disapointment. As a good will gesture leave a donation. Well worth a visit. Approx 20 mins drive from the hotel. We will stay here again.

Very warm welcome on arrival. Clean room with the usual amenities, including bottled water. Beds are comfortable and supplied with 2 pillows, blackout curtains, so know light came in excellent. As a bigger than usual man did have a bit of a squeeze to get between the sink and the door handle(room 26). Breakfast was well worth the extra. If in the area again, we will definitely stay.
