Please Trust Pilot can we have 0 stars. I’ve just been to Thoresby for recuperation after a heart operation. Three days before they sent an email stating a kiddies festival in field nearby (owned by Warners Thoresby) my sister and Is room was overlooking the festival. Deluxe VIP room. Noise for three days, booming music, shouting etc. you couldn’t use your room during day, they wouldn’t move us, no matter where you went blue restaurant, library, great hall, etc booming music and shouting voices. This was supposed to be a quiet peaceful hotel that the CEO’s mother visited a few weeks before and received peaceful time Mr. Pomroy CEO take note I was told when using the Spa treatment for half an hour peace. I wrote to Mr. Pomroy and response was an obnoxious female ringing me yesterday telling me you will not get refund it’s not Warners fault. Sorry they used Warners fields ones by Thoresby, owned by Warners who bought it, they would know at least 9 months in advance and informed guests 3 days before. This is due to Licence only granted on acceptance by the hotel, I’m a Parish Councillor and know. We were duped. Third time of trying to go to Warners. First Alveston Spa broken months told us 1 week before, we got voucher. Booked Bodlwyddan and wish we had gone but I had a medical issue so ended up at Thoresby to also celebrate my sisters and my very big birthdays. We have been treated as beetles you brush away. Our bathroom bin wasn’t emptied on Sunday after asking for clean. beds not made, no milk had to ask this was VIP room. The Kitchen restaurant ran out of food so we paid extra for blue restaurant and it wasn’t good but better. We did have very good Kitchen and Blue young staff and a duty manager on the Friday. Reception need telling guests are important and respect please. I know Warners are in trouble and down millions but guests should he respected so I’m going the legal route Mr. Pomroy as stated to your disrespectful person who rang me. Many disgruntled guests, elderly. Lack of respect by Warners of disabled too.

I’m so frustrated with Warner's so many disappointments. I’ll just list them A) poo on toilet brush and holder B) we joined a painting course. The course was given by someone with very limited knowledge of painting. He just showed us a painting that somebody else had painted, and then more or less told us to get on with it. He hadn’t set up enough easels for the people who had registered for this course. Consequently one lady didn’t have a place. She was so annoyed I gave up my easel to her. C) the first night we went in for dinner I informed the people on the reception in the dining room that we had booked VIP The manager in particular did not believe me and asked me to step to one side. I still insisted and told him I had paid an extra amount of money for the service. He then looked at me with a smirk on his face and told me I hadn’t paid enough. I then explained I had received a card at the entrance gate with VIP on it. At this point he agreed thatI had paid, and booked VIP. It was a horrible experience!!! I have also made one complaint in person to Studley Castle and also completed an assessment form. There response…….There wasn’t one. The management desperately need educate their managerial staff on subjects like these; Good manners Professionalism Respecting the dignity of others How to control or eliminate ARROGANCE Appreciate the people who pay the cost to keep them in their jobs I will never book a break with warners again, nor recommend them to anyone else

Recently My Wife and Myself booked a Friday-Monday stay at Warner's Gunton Hall Hotel in Suffolk. Having stayed there on a number of previous occasions, we felt assured that they had always provided an acceptable service in the past. We booked a premium Chalet, which we were pleased with, but the Servicing was non-existent. Bath towels were not changed during our stay,the coffee/tea/milk ran out on the 2nd day,had to plead with the Reception for more items. Dining,there is no longer a table Service, only the plates were removed.We are both in our 80's and I am disabled,so had to carry meals from the Service area using my walking stick in one hand and a meal in the other hand.No provision was made by staff for this. But the biggest upset was in the Theatre during a Show when we asked the Drinks Waiter could we order and informed that we were not VIP's. We felt insulted! Sorry to say we will not be staying at Warner's again in the future.

This company offer you a £50 discount voucher for signing up to receive their offers. Just try and use it and you will find they only take it on prices that are at least £50 more than those on offer. It's a case of sharp practice in my opinion. A very money grabbing company, they used to include some activities in the cost of the break now penny pinching charge £10 for a bit of air rifle shooting which lasts about 20 minutes, money, money, money.

Was going to Warners ( Thoresby Hall ) to meet some friends, But they had to cancel though to ill health. So got there money back. So I phoned Warners up to get our money back, But was told the Holiday Protection did not cover it.we go about 4-5 times a year.sorry to say no more for us. Warners have no compassion. Once warners have your money then they don’t care anymore.

Chaos Management at it's best, Thoresby Hall. Well recommended by friends, I booked us in for my Wife's 80th birthday and quite frankly it was a disaster from start to finish. The only good point was the disabled room, which was a good size with a walk in shower, but who in their right mind puts glass tumblers in a tile floored walk in disabled shower room? The itinery directs you to a kitchen dining area, no directions to get there and the circuitious route would be the envy of the director of Faulty Towers. Half way there you find a sign for a restaurant which no longer exists but which turns out to be the one on your itinery, on the Lower ground floor. Here you queue up at a temporary lecturn manned by staff with a tick list and paper napkins on which they are scrawling on to determin table availibility. All the tables are so close together and crammed in that even a fit person finds difficulty with access never mind the disabled, of which there are many. Then begins the circuitious route to the queue for food and back. Wetherspoons will be pleased to learn that they fare pretty well by comparison to what was served up here. I left my wife alone once to get her own food, big big mistake, she got lost in the maze and I had to go and rescue her. The never get the same table twice system works well at this "hotel", as it adds to the confusion and chaos created by the inadequately trained staff, mainly at the reception area and areas where you need advice. The staff at the sharp end certainly have more idea of what is going on. Most of the hotel is closed off for building work and this is evident by having to negotiate building workers as you traverse the corridors etc and try to negotiate lifts filled with builders equipment or bits of furniture. What I assume are Emergency exits at the Lower ground level restaurant area are blocked by builders vans, scaffolding and workers carrying in furniture etc., which is left standing around and leaning against the lift entrance. I observed one of the workers verbally abusing a lady member of staff who was, for some unknown reason, helping a worker to lift in a very large table, asking if she could manage to lift in the heavy end!!! The entertainement presented would have been rejected by any working mens club and the entertainment managers idea that we should clap the bar staff just about sums up the level I had come to expect. I can only assume that this whole sorry mess was a mock up for a new TV comedy series " Faulty Towers and Ello Ello vs Dad's Army and War of the Worlds", sorry Triffids and Armagedon, you just missed the cut. Best part of this holiday was the relief of the journey home without the 10 minutes delay we experienced on the way down. Advice in case yiu misunderstood, go somewhere else.

Re: Complaint Regarding Stay at Warner Hotels Lakeside – 80th Birthday Celebration I am writing to express my deep disappointment and frustration following our recent stay at Warner Hotels Lakeside. Our visit, which took place on 30 th May , was meant to be a special celebration for our mother’s 80th birthday. Unfortunately, due to the way we were treated by your staff, the trip was ruined and we were forced to leave after only one night of a three-night booking. There were four of us in our party, and our mother, who suffers from Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS), began to feel unwell with an upset stomach. She approached reception to ask where the nearest chemist was. Instead of being met with compassion or understanding, she was treated with suspicion. The receptionist called the manager, who then informed us, very bluntly and rudely, that our mother could either remain in her room or leave the premises – based on the assumption that she might have a contagious bug. We tried to explain that she suffers from IBS and that this was a chronic, non-contagious condition. Unfortunately, the manager showed no empathy and insisted she could not stay unless confined to her room, or else she had to leave. This treatment was not only upsetting but also humiliating for our mother on what should have been a joyful occasion. As a result, we felt we had no choice but to cut our celebration short and leave the hotel. We had paid for three nights but were only refunded for two. Given the distress caused, the lack of reasonable understanding, and the ruined experience, we requested a full refund as well as compensation for the inconvenience and emotional distress caused to our elderly mother and the rest of our family. We expected much better from a brand like Warner Hotels, and we are extremely disappointed by the insensitive way this matter was handled. When we complained the customer services told us that they had spoken to the staff & believed them over us .. Unbelievable response from a big holiday company , who ruined our mothers 80th birthday. As the staff could not recognise IBS is not infectious.. 😡 ⸻

Just got off telephone - been calling Warners booking for 32 minutes including eventually beyond all "info-book on line etc etc" to ring tone for Warners operator - then CUT-OFF! Am fully aware they are at their capacity for Studley this weekend but did wonder if cancellation might have arisen? WHAT IS THE POINT OF ALL THEIR EXPENSIVE ADVERTISING if one cannot get through to booking office? Bad business - wasting my precious time!
