I recently had the pleasure of staying at Rutland Hall Hotel, and it exceeded all expectations. From the moment I arrived, I was impressed by the warm welcome from the staff, who made every effort to ensure a comfortable stay. The setting is absolutely stunning, with the hotel overlooking Rutland Water, offering beautiful views and plenty of serene, natural surroundings.
The rooms were immaculate and thoughtfully decorated, combining modern touches with classic comfort. One of the highlights was the hotel’s dining experience. The on-site restaurant offered a range of fresh, locally sourced options, and the meals were outstanding. Every dish was prepared with care, and the service was attentive yet unobtrusive. Breakfast was also a treat, with a variety of choices to suit all tastes.
Overall, Rutland Hall Hotel is a perfect blend of luxury, comfort, and natural beauty!

A lakeside hotel with views. Excellent breakfast and service. I was given a rear facing room in the Oakham annex.it saw small with little or no sound proofing (could hear the TV in the room across the hall )and a view of the wall at the opposite. It was clean and well appointed but I suspect warm in summer as no AC although a small fan is provided. Dinner in the restaurant was a bit of a walk up a couple of flights of stairs,no fun when raining. The food was ok but a challenge to find something within my meagre budget. Staff were friendly and helpful.

The room was clean and adequate for our needs. The restaurant was extremely overpriced. The most disappointing aspect was the friendliness of the staff - we felt they were a bit aloof and not particularly warm towards their guests.

Great Stay at this superb location. Shame The Spa wan closed for refurbishment. Had dinner in the restaurant. Fab food and 5* service from Amy Brown who had a wide knowledge of fine wines from around the world.
Room was very big ( we did get an upgrade), looking out the lake. Very clean, ample tea, coffee & biscuits supplies in room. Bed supersize and super comfy.
Will definitely return and will highly recommend. Pool will be back open in Dec 2024.

Wonderful Hotel super views great room and sumptuous dinner.
Breakfast was a little disappointing after a great dinner only one chef running a full buffet style breakfast with overdone bacon and sausages dried out under the hot service lights I had to ask for fresh everything as there wasn’t eggs mushrooms tomatoes or fried bread
3.0
Difficult to review as patchy we found. jnr suite was spacious but a lot of space wasted as sort of hall. Loved big bed looking at lake & balcony. Restaurant is awful - big, more like a cafe & noisy music, but staff at dinner lovely & food v good. V hilly, not disabled friendly tho there is a buggy. Breakfast buffet typical - sad food dying under lights.
Gym only opens 745 weekends, have to go to reception to get code which changes daily. Why not give code on check in & change daily after guests check out then could make it 24hr.
Hall gives impression its olde world but in fact v modern

The area and lake views were very picturesque as well as nearby towns such as Stamford.Plenty of restaurants to choose from .

The hotel has a beautiful setting by Rutland Water .However our room and particularly the bed was very small .The restaurant was overpriced and with a very poor ambiance so we decided to eat in a very good Italian
restaurant in Oakham.The policy of putting down 50pound deposit was insulting so we certainly will not stay again

Did not like the multi level layout, exhausting
small portions on starters and some deserts were terrible, so expensive for what you got

Different style of hotel with separate buildings with large grounds to explore.Some signage was confusing regarding lifts.

This hotel was stunning however the room i was in (517) was the nosiest room I’ve ever stayed in, the door goes constantly and the light turns on every five minutes. It kept me awake for two days straight.
5.0
Room was comfortable but small for the price. Bathroom was well equipped. Room was clean and bed comfortable. Restaurant is expensive with limited menu options especially for vegetarians. Breakfast quality and options were average.
The spa was non-operational and this was not listed at the time of booking.
The hotel grounds were beautiful and the surrounding area outside the hotel grounds was good for walking.
2.0
The stay overall was really relaxing and as a first timer was reasonably priced for B & B. However, the evening meal at Blossoms I though was over priced for what you had on the place. Surely just a spoonful of veg ( peas) or a little extra tomato doesn't add too much to the main course. There was a lot of sauce/ cream on my dish. Nothing to soak it up with :- I had the Cod . I love veg but begrudge paying extra £6.00 for Sweet Potatoes, ect. £26 was more than enough to pay. We will stay again but NOT eat at Blossoms .
4.0
Great location (if you stay in the main building). Nice facilities but very busy during the school holidays.
The main draw of The Rutland is the amazing staff who could not be more helpful.

A lovely old building, something for everyone. Attentive staff. Beautiful area.

We had a lovely stay at Rutland Hall Hotel & Spa, we were given a complimentary upgrade to a nice room in the main hall, we had a nice swim in the pool although this will be closed for renovation from September.
All the food in the restaurant breakfast and dinner was of a good quality and all staff were exceptional.
1.5
In our room the double bed was very small and the room was cluttered with unnecessary furniture making it feel hot and slightly claustrophobic. The fittings were new and the room was clean. Ok for a one night stop otherwise go for more expensive options. Breakfast average.
2.0
I loved the views and the setting, unfortunately on the day we arrived there was a huge wedding party going on. This meant no space to park in the reception car park. The alternative car park being a 10 minute walk away. It also meant that music was being played until midnight on a Sunday night. Not very good soundproofing from discos in the room!!
The safe in the room did not work, reported but not rectified. The towel rail in the bathroom was hanging off, reported but not rectified. The room was big and spacious and the bed was very comfortable. Not a four star hotel experience, would have been quieter staying in the local pub which kicks out at 10:30!

Wonderful
Just the room was very warm and the fan was not really adequate as you could not open the windows. Very small thing but would really improve the stay.
5.0
Having to drive to the restaurant as i have walking difficulties. Makes it feel disjointed. But excellent food.
And excellent accommodation. Would stay again definitely.
3.0
Very crowded reception area for checking in - two wedding parties arrived at the same time.
Our room overlooked the car park and we were kept awake until gone 2.00am by drunken guests arguing and shouting outside. Room only has single glazed windows so even if there are planning restriction secondary double glazing could be added. This would help a lot, especially as the fan light window didn't close properly.
3.0
Very nice property in an idyllic location but lacking in dining options and overall catering service
1.5
Service before arrival was brilliant, made an error with booking which was easily resolved.
Welcome upon arrival was a bit flat, very functional.
Booked double standard room, would have described as ‘cosy’. Very compact, nothing special. Just ok.
Made hotel aware booking was for a milestone wedding anniversary, wanted stay to be special. There was a postcard ‘congratulations’ and when attending the restaurant, they’d said if they’d known they’d have dressed our table up. I felt they could have made a little more effort with this.
Restaurant was the highlight of our stay. Staff were amazing. Despite no notice, they brought out token gesture table decorations- they tried and staff were very attentive. Food was amazing wine was great. Best meal we’ve had for a while. Be forewarned though, it is if the higher price bracket. Worth every penny.
Breakfast was ok, the usual cooked breakfast or continental affair.
Overall stay was ok.

The apartment was very clean, well maintained and comfortable. It was well equipped and warm. Grounds are beautifully kept. Stunning views across Rutland water.

Surprised this is 4 star. No bedside lights. When we were eating our evening meal there were crumbs on our bench seat. Spa not available. Parking near our accommodation limited. On the booking into the hotel there was a spelling mistake on the form. The staff and evening meal were both excellent.
2.5
Delightful place to stay on the edge of Rutland Water. Clean room well equipped. Restaurant food had a good choice and was well prepared. The only failing was a lukewarm espresso coffee which was changed immediately.

The hotel is built in several distinct blocks with many stairs between them. Not good for those with limited mobility.

We stayed for one night in between Christmas and new year. The room was lovely as per usual. Our only complaint this stay related to Blossoms restaurant and the front of house. We made our way up to the restaurant at around 7pm. We only wanted some bar snacks (chips or small plates.) only to be told they are fully booked and can’t also make bar food. For a 4 star hotel, I found this pretty poor. You should be able to cater for all guests regardless. Especially when your hotel is in the middle of no where leaving other eating alternatives non existent. We sat in the bar and had a few drinks. Neither the restaurant or bar was busy. Not sure what they call fully booked but there were countless empty tables, even the larger 4’s only had two people sat at it. The only big party was a birthday tucked away in a private dining area. Not exactly difficult to look after. We had to settle for eating some crisps and making our way back to the room. Breakfast the next morning was perfect. The hotel just seems to struggle with evening shifts for some reason. We prob won’t stay again after this experience. We would chose a place in Stamford so we can walk to an alternate dining facility.

Location is beautiful, our suite was well presented and spotlessly clean

Tiny dark room double bed, lumpy pillows. Food and drink over priced I had Pork belly which was chewy with a thick layer of unrenered fat on top and the dauphinoise potatoes and veg were raw the desert was vanilla cheesecake which had no taste, my husband had a cheeseboard with stale cheese. Poor selection of beers. Lovely location
2.5
We chose this hotel as we were a group of friends meeting up from various locations. The hotel is lovely and the waterside location stunning. We were given a private room for our group meal. No complaints that I was aware of. Very good breakfast. Plenty of choice from cereals to yoghurt and fruit and full English and pastries.
The hotel is the perfect spot for exploring Rutland Water and the local area.
2.5
The hotel was excellent, great food and drink, very clean room, high standard of hygiene and all the staff very friendly and helpful!
Beautiful views across Rutland water at different points of location.
There are a lot of steps in various parts of the grounds which you need to be careful on.
Overall, a lovely place to stay 😊👍

It’s an ok hotel. We thought we’d be staying in the stately home part, but we’re in a building behind which was a bit soulless. I don’t see how it can be called a spa hotel as the pool is like a leisure centre pool. We couldn’t get any treatments and no lake view as advertised when I booked. The staff are nice however and helpful and the breakfast was lovely and the room comfortable and clean.
5.0
Tight parking when hotel full.
