What guests think

Reviews of Thornton Hall Hotel & Spa highlight friendly, helpful staff and well-regarded spa and leisure facilities, attractive grounds, and generally comfortable rooms, making it a popular choice for relaxing breaks, weddings, and business stays.

However, multiple guests were surprised by extra charges or limited access for spa and gym use, noting fees that felt high and not always clearly communicated at booking. Some rooms lack air conditioning and can run warm, and noise from nearby events or other guests is a recurring issue in certain areas. Food is often praised, especially evening meals and breakfast variety, though breakfast quality or temperature and bistro atmosphere drew occasional criticism. Expect a relaxing stay in scenic surroundings, and check room location and spa access details in advance.

We had no aircon and our room window was out on the carpark where there was ingoing noise of cars and people chatting all night . We had a old plug in fan but that was really noisy too. Our room must have been 30 degrees at least. And then to top it off at 6am when we had enough and was roasting the shower didnt work no matter how many time we pulled the toggle it just would stay. So our stay was not relaxing atall. Oh and the jacuzzi outside is very old and buttons dont work most of the time.

Thornton Hall is a good quality hotel with well trained and polite staff and good amenities.Also ample parking and good choice at breakfast. My only issue would be the poor quality of lighting in our bedroom particularly if you want to do some work or apply make up

FANTASTIC - beautiful surroundings and lovely mix of modernised country manor. Facilities and staff excellent. Very well equipped spa. Highlight was evening meal. Menu locally sourced and seasonal, chef is very talented. Incredible evening meal. One of best meals I have ever had. Breakfast traditional buffet. Good quality produce, although needed to be hotter, everything like warm.

I booked the hotel for the pool. Good size to do laps with but you have to get there early as it gets full as the morning goes. Only stayed the one night but we had a bottle of wine free which was a nice touch. Nice place, not large but fairly enough grounds. No airconditioning in our room but balcony door and window can be opened. Fairly clean room except for the electric fan which probably havent been cleaned for months with the amount of dirts and dust it has accumulated. It was a warm night and we had doubts using it. Attentive, respectful staff. Good breakfast selection and enough parking spaces. You can see cows grazing in the fields nearby. Will probably come back again but I keep remembering the dirty fan…we’ll see.

Absolutely beautiful hotel, friendly staff, clean and comfy. The only criticism is that £50 to use the pool and spa etc is absolutely extortionate…. Most hotels let hotel guests use these facilities for free, some higher end ones may charge around £10 or so which is fine….. but £50 is an absolute rip off. You can get 3 months gym membership for that. It is fleecing customers and made me not want to spend any more money in there like at the bar or restaurant etc.

A pleasant stay in a clean and comfortable room, situated in the annex. Being located onthe ground floor, noise from passing guests, in the corridor and outside, can be an issue. Unable to comment too much on the food as I was dissuaded from sampling the breakfast or using the main restaurant following a poor experience in the bistro, where the food was lacklustre and atmosphere resembled that of a sports centre cafeteria. A great pity. Overall the stay was fine but I felt it could be so much better by paying more attention to the small details.

They helped with our bags, told us where everything was and ordered us a taxi etc.. our room was beautiful, clean with a huge comfortable bed. We used the spa which was very clean and I loved the outside hot tubs. We ate in the brasserie and the food was very tasty. Breakfast buffet was lovely too.

The room next to ours had a group of women, which was more than the people assigned to the room, like 6 or 7. they were listening to loud music and clearly drunk with booze in their room Twice we complained to reception to get them to calm down and quieten down as a courtesy to us and other guests, however the hotel staff did not get them to do so. long and short we got no sleep and it spoiled our stay

I am writing this review because, despite being asked to email the hotel about my concerns, I have not received any response. This lack of follow-up has left me disappointed and compelled me to share my experience publicly. I stayed at this hotel from December 7th to December 8th to celebrate my wife’s birthday. While we dined at The Lawns Grill, which was a pleasant experience, it is worth noting that the restaurant was an additional cost and unrelated to the core issue of my stay. The main problem was the extremely thin walls, which made it impossible to block out noise from a group of loud guests in the adjacent room. Their conversation was so loud it felt like they were in our room. Despite raising multiple complaints with the reception—by phone and in person—the disturbance persisted until 2:30 AM when the group finally left. A hotel’s primary purpose is to provide a peaceful night’s sleep, but the thin walls and inability to address the issue meant we barely got any rest, significantly impacting the next day of our trip.
