アンスティホール(Ansty Hall)

Definitely wanna stay again before it gets sold. Amazing hotel and even more amazing staff.

Was invited to a family wedding at Ansty Hall. And before the ceremony there was bar open for pre drinks. The menu states one price and you get charged another - service charge that you are not asked if you would like to pay ! 4 single gin and tonics £44 ! It’s a massive rip off. Nowhere on the drinks and food menu states there is a service charge . Why charge so much for drinks when making money on the hotel rooms and wedding venue. This place would attract more to stay if you wasn’t ripped off with food and drink.

Walking in the main building it is well presented with oak panelling, well polished and characterful. We were met politly and allocated rooms promptly. The room we had was of a good size with all the amenities one would expect. The bathroom was clean and well presented although it would benefit from an update. We had our evening meal in a side room which had an 18 centuary charm. The food was excellent and the waiting staff very helpful. At Breakfast we were presented with a good choice and lots of hot tea and coffee. The only downside the price of drinks. I saw a comment from the management that the prices were on par with other top end venues. Well I would say catering for weddings and the like you also have to consider the likley mixed affluence of your clientelle. Consider this when making your booking. That aside I score this venue as very good.

I booked afternoon tea’s for a few family members, as a part of their Christmas presents. From the second they walked through the front door, they received nothing but 10/10 service and attention from the staff. The new refurbishment is absolutely beautiful, the restaurant was a warm and inviting setting. It was a very enjoyable experience, a box of extra afternoon tea items was brought home also, it was worth every single penny! The team are a credit to this hotel. We will be back for sure.

Stayed here May 24 on a Saturday night. Check in was easy in a nice spacious reception. We were given room 1 that had nice views out of the front of the hotel. Upon getting into the room, I tried to open the windows as the hotel was very hot and stuffy, one of the windows did not stay open so had to wedge a box in the window to keep it open. The room was spacious but dated, gaps in the ceiling paper, bouncy floorboards that were noisy, you could hear other rooms with people walking around. The room door rattled when the corridor doors were opened so it sounded like someone was coming into the room every time someone moved through the corridor. Bed was comfy and well made. Lots of nice additions including chocolate and crisps, Bathroom was not very clean with parts missing from the shower door, the bathroom needed more detailed cleaning in the corners. Lack of plugs for the modern traveller. The marble top on top of the toilet was shattered with mastic used to try and fix it leaving sharp edges. The shower water pressure was an issue at times slowing to a dribble. The room opposite had left the room service remains in the corridor and wasn’t picked up for several hours resulting in a smelly corridor. We ate in the restaurant which was beyond frustrating due to the menu on the website not being the same as in the restaurant, although the restaurant was nice and new the menu was small with small serving and a large price tag. On leaving we left something in the room, we attempted to contact the hotel via phone for 40 minutes with no answer, had to email in the end.

We arranged for a celebration of life at Ansty Hall. The room was beautifully set up with access to the garden area. The staff were attentive and very efficient. The afternoon tea was amazing, tasty sandwiches catering for vegetarian and vegan, cakes looked like works of art. Plenty of tea, speciality teas and coffee. We stayed overnight, comfy bed, nice room. Breakfast was another lovely meal, with lots of choice.

Really can’t fault any part of the stay. The house is an amazing, eclectic mix of retained, country house character and modern eclectic art museum. The room was spacious (with comfy linens, luxury touches and beautiful garden views), the menu was delicious (huge compliments to the chief and team) and the staff were friendly, attentive and very welcoming. There’s something very special about staying in beautiful, historic surroundings done right. Yes there is work going on but it didn’t affect our stay. It’s a real gem of a place. First time stay, definitely not the last visit.

We came to Ansty Hall to celebrate our engagement and were treated well. The staff were very friendly and helpful especially Alan who checked us in. The room had swans made from towels, box of chocolate and a wedding brochure to recognise our celebration, which was greatly appreciated. Anything I needed help with he was on hand, also the food and restaurant were lovely. Unfortunately there were renovations happening so could not explore a lot of the hotel. When it is finished it will be nice to go back.
