30 mins free wifi is good, but a bit pointless why not just let you have it for free?…read more There's no car park so you have to use pay and display, however the time will run out at 10am so you have to get up and move the car to a different car park. The room we were in was quite noisey from the traffic. Wouldn't stay here again as it's too much hastle with the car parking.

Went for a business overnight trip to Doncaster on September 21. Staff in reception and restaurant…read morewere very friendly, polite and professional. Facilities were exactly as advertised & room was spotless clean and comfortable. The only down point is that the food served in its restaurant was appalling. Above all the medium rare sirloin steak (recommended by our waiter) which was tough, nervy and with plenty of sinew tissue (tasted more like a bad rump steak) + the pepper sauce was tasteless. We noticed that other tables were complaining and leaving their meals as apparently they got the same meat cut as I did. The profiteroles were served with an out-of-date cream that tasted really dodgy. Piece of advise, yes, stay there but eat elsewhere.

We stayed in this hotel as we had a works Do at another hotel but that hotel was already full…read more We booked the 'Executive Suite', if you can call it that, more like a maisonette. There was a very small double bed, and for myself and my partner, who is into weightlifting it was not a comfortable night! Sink and cupboard (no plates or cutlery), microwave next to the bed and a very small, old TV. The facilities are very old and dated but the room itself was clean. There is no lift in the hotel and we were on the top floor, through about 8 doors to get to the back of the hotel to the actual stairs. The stairwells were used as storage for all kinds of things (very unsightly). The room was cold and no way of turning any heat on. No complementary bottles of water. We couldn't get our car onto the carpark. We arrived just after booking in time and it was full. Probably enough room for around 10 cars at a squeeze. We had to park on an NHS car park and pay for 24 hours further down the road. We have staying in many hotels in our time and I must say this has to be one of the worst. In need of updating and tidying in general. The staff are friendly enough. I can't comment of the complementary breakfast as we decided not to stay to eat.

I stayed in this classic hotel for a horse racing. It is located in a residential area not very far…read morefrom the railway station (and the horse racing course). Very quiet and secluded place. The facilities are old, keeping classic features, but well maintained. Room interior decoration has been refurbished to modern (functional, in compliance with all standards and less costly than antiques) standard. My room was pleasant, clean and comfortable. They are proud of the restaurant and their first-class refined dishes. Yes, they are quite right but you might need a prior booking to secure a limited number of seat at the peak dinner time. I made a couple of suggestions with regard to this constraint. Later I received a very English-mannered polite letter genuinely appreciative of my feedback. Their cozy classic-architecture of full of mahogany bar is lovely. I enjoyed it while waiting for my dinner seat. Concierge is also classic-mannered English. They arranged a taxi right away to send me to the race course (wishing me the best of luck of course! and I won that day, thanks). I have uploaded Doncaster racecourse's pic on that day. Very diligent and professional services all rounds.

I was taken here for a Sunday lunch when my birthday came up yet again. I had been told that the…read morecooking was interesting and creative. However, the lunch was a traditional English Sunday meal: roast beef, roast potatoes, mashed potatoes, broccoli, carrots, cauliflower with white sauce the lot. There was a choice of starters, but my party all opted for the Yorkshire standard of Yorkshire puddings and gravy. Two large individual puddings were served - a substantial helping! Note that if you choose this starter, you'll have four Yorkshires, because with your main course will come two more Desserts were perhaps a little limited in number, and again very traditional, including apple pie, gâteau and ice cream. I always enjoy ice cream, and that was my choice. However, it was not of high quality, and let down an otherwise most acceptable meal. There was a huge amount of waste from our main courses. This was because the vegetables were brought to the table on serving trays, and there was simply far too much for us to eat. No-one could possibly have finished the quantity that was brought. Here was wasted food, wasted money, and wasted energy in the cooking of it. Shame. The choice of wines was rather limited, but I picked out an Argentinian Malbec which turned out to be very good value. Overall, here is a good place to take your grandparents, or others who like traditional British food in an non-intimidating atmosphere.

Immediately upon entering we were…read moregreeted by a very enthusiastic and polite young man called Josh who's sole interest was the comfort and satisfaction of the customer! He was extremely clued up on the menu, offering recommendations with honest integrity. After careful deliberation we made our choices and after a very short wait our meals arrived and were frankly out of this world! We were immediately bowled over by the presentation not to mention the size of the meal and as for the tastewe both agreed they far excelled anything else we had experienced anywhere! The ingredients were clearly the freshest and cooked to perfectioni had Smoked Haddock in a fabulous cheese sauce with baby new potatoes, my partner had the most glorious Crab & King Prawn Exotic Salad (we had to take a photo to show our friends it looked so good!) Throughout the evening we were asked by Josh if everything was to our liking and if we required anything else, a genuine customer care team leader if ever i met one! Our hats off to the Black Bull, we give an outstanding 5 star rating for the whole experience and an equal 5 stars to Josh for his hospitality and hard work!
