Nothing to do with the hotel but the best restaurants get booked up ages in advance so ensure you've got your act together!

Really nice pub, good beer, comfortable room, nice bathroom.

Maybe fit some blinds on the windows.

We stayed in the Annexe and it was very clean and comfortable. The room was really good and it was styled in a really nice way.

All good.

A lovely period building in a central location with parking. The food morning and evening was superb . The staff were first class, especially Patrick and Amy. There was a fire in the main building during our stay, which, thankfully, no one was hurt and was dealt with quickly . The stand-out people were the other guests, and Patrick and Amy who looked after us and found alternative accommodation extremely quickly in the late evening . Once the Hornblower is renovated, it will certainly be a place to stay again.

Bed had quite hard springs and so not that comfortable. The street light outside room made it like day time at night.

Lovely food, really friendly staff, good central location.

Team but off hand when arrived for a drink later on in the evening. Old building but floor boards creaky and room was on slant which cant be helped with an old building. No where to put toiletries in the bathroom. Could of done with a stand for our bag. Lots of noise about 6am in the morning.

Great welcome form the team on arrival especially as we were late - good service at breakfast in the morning and food was excellent. Stayed in the four poster room - very spacious. Room was nice and clean and the shower was good.

Small twin bedded room which we were aware of. Only one chair. Compact but comfortable though. No view as just skylight windows but, for the price, perfectly fine for one night’s stay.

Staff enthusiast, welcoming, nothing too much trouble. Food excellent, both evening meal and breakfast.

Nothing to dislike regarding our stay.

Breakfast first class, staff friendly and very helpful went above and beyond all expectations and location was excellent.

Drawback is that if your room is right on the road and then the traffic outside is noticeable and we were also woken up by a commotion after the local club kicked out at 2:00 in the morning. There are other rooms away from the street and also in the rear building which probably don't have this problem.

Nice hotel attached to a pub in the heart of Oakham. We stayed in the 4-poster bedroom which was large with a brilliant en-suite. But it is a drawback for a premium priced room (£130 per night !!) Rutland Water only 10 minute drive away- great for walks and stop off at the Hornblowers sister pub The Finch on the Hambleton peninsular for refreshments on the way back Breakfast was good with plenty of options and well cooked. We also ate in one evening and again food and service were good. Second night we ate at 10 Dining Street just around the corner. Great Indian with a BYO drinks policy. Defintiely enhanced the visit.

A slightly issue with the cold water tap running hot water through it in the evening but sorted itself out in the morning, bit of a quandary….

Very stylish and modern with a twist of traditional aesthetics.

Parking is at the back and is a slight challenge. You definitely have to ask how to get there!

Hotel and restaurant on the main street of Oakham. Large room with comfy bed and great shower, and quiet. Friendly and helpful staff. Great breakfast with local products. We enjoyed our stay.
