The staff were lovely but one lift was broke and the other one was tiny... the decor could do with a good tidy up and the bathroom although clean looks like it could do with some work on the bath and the ceiling...apart from outdated furniture and decor a nice hotel for a night and the price.

Fawlty Towers
Very Outdated, Not enough signage to point you in the right direction, 2no lifts one was out of order the other was like something out of a horror film. My room's door didn't shut properly you had to make sure the catch locked otherwise anyone could of joined me. All in all it felt very fawlty towers-esque.

Dear Craig, Thank you for taking the time to rate and review your stay with us. I would like to thank you especially for your flattering comparison to the classic sitcom that you have referenced. In "Fawlty Towers", as I am sure you know, the owners and staff of a hotel strive to provide the highest levels of service to accommodate their guests; as do we. Our staff are always available to assist with any direction required around the hotel or the city and to help with any concerns regarding maintenance and security. We hope to see you again the next time you are in Nottingham. Kind regards, Millie Friend Reception Manager The Strathdon Hotel

Lovely hotel just a tad dated.
The Strathdon is a lovely little hotel, it is dated but it was clean and the staff were friendly and helpful. The beds were a little uncomfortable, the mattresses are definiety in need of replacing. The only downside and no fault of the hotel is the church bell ringing on a Sunday morning. We were woken by the chimming at 7:40am and again at gone 9am.

Only ones in the hotel?!
We appeared to be the only ones in the hotel! We didn’t see anyone else anywhere at all! When we can down for breakfast it was a large dining room and all the tables were set but no one else appeared! Having said that the breakfast was very good and the waitress who looked after us was lovely. As she had no one else to worry about she could give all her attention to us!

We look forward to seeing you again the next time you are in Nottingham.

Comfortable beds, good breakfast and friendly staff; room was hot and radiator couldn't be adjusted and outside was noisy with window open. Only one lift working and not reliable which could have been an issue as one of our party had mobility issues and couldn't use stairs. Overall a bit dated but reasonable price

A bit of an old fashioned hotel, and that is meant as a compliment. Recently, any stays have been in the modern inns and lodges, and this was simply a throwback. The place was clean and the room absolutely fine with good amenities to hand: iron, a press, and proper wooden furniture. They offer 24 hr room servive which is great if required.

Liked: Room comfort
Pros: basically based in the city centre, but not on a busy street so it is quiet. Cons: the place is a bit drab, old-fashioned and needs a bit of renovation. Taking a shower is not a trivial task there as every single move results in flooding the floor. The housekeeping is a bit of an issue. I found previous guest's underwear in trouser press.
