The White Hart Hotel, Boston, Lincolnshire

The White Hart Hotel, Boston, Lincolnshire

8/10 Good
"This old hotel showed it's age and was desperately in need of a face lift. The decor in public spaces left much to be desired and the carpets in the corridors were filthy. However our room (a superior double) was clean and comfortable and well looked after each of the 3 days we were there. The staff and the food, were a different matter altogether. We had dinner for the 3 nights, being joined by family on nights 2 and 3. The food quality was very good and enjoyed by all. The staff were exceptional. Polite, friendly and accommodating. A particular mention to two of our servers Neve and Ilona who went the extra mile to ensure that we and our family had the best experience. Would I go back again? maybe, as the positives outweighed the negatives. A lick if paint and a good clean up, and yes, I would."

"We booked two rooms. One was in the newer/refurbished part of the hotel and was of a noticeably higher standard though both rooms were the same price. The staff were all lovely and the breakfast was very good and served in the light and airy restaurant. We would definitely stay again if we were in the area."

"Everything was pristine. The super-king bed was very comfortable and the bathroom had a bath as well as shower. There was an extensive menu available & the reception staff was a delightful man. Downside was it was all a little tired & getting shower gel out of a rigid bottle is difficult for arthritic hands, but these are minor things. I spent a very comfortable night there and would be more than happy to use this hotel again."
