Our Northampton hotel is right in the middle of the town centre next to the Royal and Derngate Theatre.

I have stayed here a number of times when away on business. The staff are always very helpful and the rooms very nice. Parking is either at the rear or at the NCP Car Park two minutes away. Very easy to get into the town centre if required.

Hopping Hare

When my family bought the Hopping Hare in 2006 our aim was to create an escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life, somewhere just a bit different. A place to dine, stay or meet up and relax with friends, family or colleagues. We didn't want it to be stuffy, intimidating or over the top. We set about creating luxurious rooms, a subtle, sophisticated bar with a great selection of quality drinks and a restaurant offering some of the best food to be found in Northampton. As a family owned and operated business, we set the standards on service, value for money, atmosphere and personality. No detail has been overlooked in creating a hotel, restaurant and bar in Northampton with an individual blend of 21st-century chic, high standards and a laid back friendly feel that we are sure you'll begin to notice as soon as you step inside. We've got to know some of our guests well because they come back time after time. In fact, 2010 saw the completion of an extension to the hotel to meet increased demand for accommodation from a growing clientele. My team and I would love to welcome you to stay for brunch, lunch, dinner or just a drink. Once the Hopping Hare is on your radar we guarantee you'll be back. David George, General Manager

Two night stay with really excellent food

Reviewed By SM00001

A handsome building in a suburban location - this is not a country pub. But that is only carping. The welcome was warm, the staff were agreeable and very professional. They went out of their way to make our stay memorable. The cooking was really excellent: we dined twice and had great meals. There is an emphasis on locally sourced ingredients and it shows.

Reviewed By PrescilB

Geniunely I have never been to a less accommodating place. and Bettee off in a Premier Inn or even, shockingly, Travelodge. To begin with they have only 2 small elevators that barely fit a wheelchair and take an eon to use and move due to the card system. It is also shared with staff. The rooms are ridiculously small even after specifically requesting a large disabled room, we were given a small that barely fit two people let alone our luggage and so on. The bathroom on surface level was amazing and accessible, however there was hair left in the drain from previous guests, the sink was clogged and so the small basin would fill up fast. When using the step free shower, the curtain is pointless because the water spills out to the rest of the bathroom, essentially flooding it, therefore making it unsafe to use. Staff were incredibly blaze and unhelpful, except the cleaner she was amazing, despite the fact I was getting ready for an event and had a disabled sister, we weren't allowed to take food, that we paid for, away, which mean I could not eat. They continued to be unhelpful with any requests aeound and during the wedding. Truly one of the worst hotels ive been in.

Tired Hotel in need of a refurbishment

Reviewed By louisedD3742EA

One staff member on reception when we checked in on the jubilee bank holiday Thursday. Very helpful in allocating our rooms close together at our request. We stayed in Northampton as we'd travelled down from the Cotswolds to visit relatives. The hotel was typical of most Travelodges up and down the country, with worn carpets, rusted wall heaters, mould in the bathroom, cobwebs on the light fittings and strewn across the walls. Cleaning isn't good, as to be expected with the unrealistic working schedules of the team members. We stayed in the ground floor and there was a lot of noise from the upstairs rooms. Clearly no noise insulation at all in the hotel. We chose Travelodge as it's one of the only hotel chains that accept dogs, and our cavalier spaniel enjoys her trips away with us. Price for two rooms - family room and a double - was around £120. We did not bother with the breakfast boxes as I don't think they're good value for money.

Not what is says on the box

Reviewed By ZoeSwifty

Went there for 1 night via the Groupon voucher bought for us for a wedding gift. Starting with the perks (minimal) the staff were friendly and the room was comfortable. The breakfast was nice, was buffet and had good selection. Negatives...unfortunately this place has a lot more negatives than positives. Firstly, the hotel is not what it says on any website including their own. Everything gives the impression you stay in the main house, you don't you stay in a unattractive building to the side, it does give the impression of a retirement home. The drive up to the hotel isnt welcoming. Secondly, for a 4 star Hotel, you would expect the facilities to be good, such as a smart TV in the room, no it's a standard TV. We were also woken up fairly early by builders upstairs! We were booked in the restaurant for food, but looking at the menu it was quite limited so we actually decided to go out to the pub down the road....The Brampton Halt HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! Unfortunately, the hotel was not what we were expecting and although the bed was comfortable, it is certainly not worth the price for a night and isn't a 4 star Hotel.
