Check in girl..Kate..was really nice and friendly. Gave us all the info for our stay. The room...215...was noisy as they are revamping the market outside...and started using drill at 7 am !!. The room was nice and clean, but our rubbish bin was 'pre-filled' with rubbish from the previous occupant. The hotel is nice and handy for the town as... More

Thank you for your review. It's nice to hear you enjoyed your stay with us. We do appologise for the bin. That should not have happened. I have dealt with this with the housekeeping team. The market re-vamp is on-going for us at the moment and again appologise for the noise but this is currently out of our hands. It... More

The best thing about staying in a Wetherlodge is.... Instead of having a hotel with a bar, you get a pub with a hotel on top. Generally hotel bars are soleless places with expensive beer and no atmosphere, but a Wetherlodge bar is well, a proper Wetherspoon pub so It's always busy the prices are good and there is a... More

Nice big room. Complementary water, tea, coffee and biscuits a nice touch. Ideal location for exploring Chesterfield. Clean. Maybe a little dated but all in all would stay here again. Breakfast was good if a little surreal. Very strange having people tucking into pints whilst eating you brekkie at 8am, but not a problem.

Wetherspoons mission statement is cheap, but good - well thats what I'm guessing having eaten in a few. Great value, and good quality food - something Whitbread could do well to copy in their, generally, rubbish Table Tables, or Brewers Fayer restaurants next to Premier Inn hotels. Anyway, this is about the Hotel. Which is good. Ive stayed twice. On... More

Just what you would expect from a Wetherspoons pub. Clean and efficient. Service was very quick, our order of two chicken burgers came out very quickly, although more attention to the burger and presentation would have been good. I had three very small chunks of lettuce and a scraping of onion on the burger. I was too hungry to send... More

Had a weekend away in December 2012, wanting somewhere to stop within easy reach of Nottingham. Excellent rail links to Nottingham, with the station a 15 minute walk away. The Hotel is easy to reach if coming west on the A619. It is situated right next to the market.
