Negative Reviews
negative:
Poor Wi-Fi signal in room.
This hotel does offer free Wi-Fi to all guests, but there seems to be many issues with connecting devices whilst in the rooms. Public spaces within the hotel have stronger signal but guests have complained about the poor connection they get when trying to surf the web in their rooms.
negative:
Cooking smell throughout hotel.
Although everybody enjoys a good meal, no one wants to smell it throughout a hotel building. Many guests have commented on the odor coming from the restaurant that can be smelled from some of the rooms and corridors.
negative:
Noisy from inside to out.
You will most likely be disturbed at some point in your stay at Rowantree Hotel by noises either coming from rooms next door or the area outside of the hotel. There is a lack of soundproofing and this can become a problem if you're a light sleeper.
