I recently spent a weekend at the Donnington Valley hotel as part of a '2for1' spa weekend deal with my boyfriends mum. We were impressed with the general appearance and design of the hotel. The bedrooms was pretty standard with a nice bathroom. Noise wise, there was a wedding on the Satuday we were there, I had thought it would... More

we stayed for 2 nights for their Bacchanalian break- excellent value as it included 2 three course meals from their "market" menu, one including matched wines and a case of wine to take home. The room was large, and had plenty of space for clothing and a very comfortable bed;good bathroom with shower and bath. We faced the golfcourse, but... More

Stayed for one night on 11th May 2012 with some mates for a golf break. The room was immaculate, in fact it all looked virtually new. Not a mark anywhere and spotlessly clean. it was a good size with all the extras you would expect, but also robes and slippers for going to the spa. We didn't have treatments but... More

I stayed at this hotel with my wife (room 317 if I remember correctly). This was to help celebrate our 25th wedding anniversary (it was meant to be a 'treat' as we live locally anyway). I was not impressed with the room at all and there were numerous niggly little things that just contributed to making me feel that I’d... More

My Mum and I travelled here recently for a 2 night Spa Break booked through a spa break website whilst our other halfs were away playing golf elsewhere... Firstly the spa break people were fantastic making sure from when we booked the trip that they asked us what time we wanted our treatments to what time we wanted to be... More

Charming staff, spacious well appointed bedrooms. Great breakfast but poor evening meal with high prices and limited menu. Golf course in good condition but we followed a ladies 5 ball group and despite informing the pro shop nothing was done about it. We let a two ball in a buggy through but they had to follow the five ladies who... More

My sisters and I recently treated our mother to a trip to Donnington Valley for her 50th birthday as a surprise. As you could imagine we wanted this to be both a relaxing and memorable trip and I can honestly say we were not dissapointed! We stayed in the standard twin rooms which we thought were of very high quality... More

I booked a Valentine break here for myself & wife, complete with a hot stone massage for her as an extra treat (she recommends this if anyone is considering). We found the entire pacage very good and enjoyed the hotel & facilities very much. I had read reviews prior to booking which stated 'make sure you get one of the... More

It had been several years since my last stay at DV, so looked forward to seeing the extended hotel. Upgraded from the room class I booked (to what I assume was a junior suite) it was spacious however somewhat dated and with some obvious maintenance issues - see photos. Given the room rate I expected a more premium experience. A... More

A friend and I went here for a spa break, we got a good deal through last minute. If you are looking for a proper spa weekend then I'm not sure this is the place. The pool area got very busy and in the afternoon would not have found somewhere to sit. The treatment area is upstairs and very nice,... More

Dear bluewaters, Thanks for taking the time to post your review and whilst I was pleased with certain aspects, clearly some missed opportunities. I hope we will be able to welcome you back soon so you have the opportunity to experience the Winepress Restaurant and maybe a different treatment. Best wishes, Sally Russell, Hotel Manager. More
