Review summary

Based on recent reviews

The Hind Hotel is often praised for its excellent location in the heart of Wellingborough, making shops and pubs easily accessible, plus it's near bus routes. Many guests find the rooms spacious, some even featuring period details. The building itself, a lovely former 17th-century coaching inn, adds to the charm, and some guests have found the mattresses not to their liking. The hotel offers convenient amenities, including free parking round the back, and some guests enjoyed the Christmas decorations during their visit, as well as a tasty breakfast.

Good location and friendly service

ideal location helpful staff modern room good size

I found the hotel's location ideal, being close to my work. The staff was very helpful and accommodating. My room was modern and spacious. I appreciated that the hotel is good-sized, though it was a little quiet on a sunday pm (i guess because it is closed to the public).

The carpets looked a little tired, showing some wear. It definitely wasn't a big issue, but it's something that caught my eye.

Historic Charm with Family Comfort

ample space quick check-in thoughtful staff

The family room offered ample space. a separate toilet. The staff were friendly and very efficient. Check-in was quick. They even brought drinks and snacks up to our room, so thoughtful!!!

I had difficulty finding the hotel because the car park uses a different post code. This made arrival a little stressful after a long drive.

smoke smell uncomfortable bed

The staff were very helpful and friendly. This was acceptable.

The room smelled strongly of smoke. It was quite unpleasant. The bed proved terribly uncomfortable, springs poked through it during the night. Some TV channels also did not function, irritating.
