Minworth Lodge

Un professional and untrustworthy to secure a function room.. for anyone wondering the managers will say the venue is yours 100 % and then let you down to cater for more people.. it’s giving money grabbing. Bare face lies also

What can I say? The room and en-suite was lean and tidy. However, if you want a good night’s sleep, dream on. The connecting door to the bar and room corridor was constantly opening and the music / karaoke suddenly belted out at Mach four volume. When the door was shut, I could still hear the cat being strangled on the karaoke. Then at 2 in the morning, 2 female voices woke me up with their loud discussion on rooms. Night 2 was worse with disco night turning into let’s get ready to rumble at closing time. Certain individuals decided to have a standup Barney and slanging match that keep going til 1.30am. Thank god on night 3 I remembered my painkillers and actually got some sleep. Again the room was clean and tidy but if your looking for a peaceful place to sleep, I would say take ear defence, as you’ll need it

Staff on check in were good polite and helpful on getting keys the room very basic but looked ok booked as going to family event. On returning at 6:30 the room smelled of smoke, which continued all night, there was a party booked in bar area which started at 7pm with loud music which continued until 1:15am but because it was spring the clocks when forward so it was really 2:15am then it was the party customers shouting screaming and arguing for a further 30/40 minutes also some were staying overnight so they were shouting and banging doors. So hardly any sleep which was a shame as the bed was quite comfortable with lovely crisp linen. There was no bin at all, nowhere to hand clothes, the toilet moved and leaked every time you sat on it and the shower was dirty and mouldy, the windows were so dirty you couldn’t see out of them also the TV didn’t work and you couldn’t make tea or coffee and couldn’t go to the bar to order any as there was a private party on would I recommend no. It’s cheap for a reason just a lot of reasons
