The Lake Isle Restaurant with rooms

Very Good
Traveller Type: young couple
  : Breakfast was superb, and the staff we met (on reception and in the dining room) were friendly and professional. The location in the centre of Uppingham was perfect for us, and our Standard King room to the side of the hotel – ie not facing the High Street – was very quiet. The bathroom was spacious, the bed comfortable. The jar of excellent home-made shortbread in the room and the jug of fresh milk for our tea were a nice touch.
  : I would have liked sockets beside the bed, so we could plug in our phones there instead of across the room, and a full-length mirror (I was dressing for a party). I'm not keen on bedspreads in hotel rooms, and the slightly furry synthetic one in our very warm top-floor room on what was one of the hottest days of the year seemed particularly pointless. The bedlinen was nice, though. These are all minor things. I'm mentioning them because for the price (£168 for the night, including breakfast) I expected perfection.
