Bolton Go Ape at Rivington Hotels

"Great stay, fabulous room overlooking the pitch - the home of Bolton Wanderers. I bought this stay as a treat , but we will most definitely be back. Staff were really lovely- nothing too much trouble."

"Good if you’re on a budget, not a huge amount of space but they make it work 🌟"

"It was adequate, bit dated."

"We booked a standard double. Clean bedding & towels were organised upon arrival The water to shower “pressure” was slow we only stayed for 1 night very slow. The bathroom was clean, well used the hotel was the same in parts the wardrobe bathroom in a room felt a little unloved. The car park is spacious well late we arrived back from a wedding good lighting no issues. We arrived around 13:00 reception staff on arrival reception seemed pleasant enough offering breakfast £9 each we declined & picked up our own. Overall we spent little time in the hotel we came back 1115/1130pm after an all day wedding bar was closed no sign of anyone on front desk. We had room 323 easy to access up a small flight of stairs. Our room must have been an inter connecting a small lock between you and next door when I tried turning the handle I was horrified it turned a small household lock between you and the next room “maybe this should be upgraded” from a safety aspect. One thing we really valued was an earlier than planned check in, this helped no end as we were attending a wedding. We checked out early the next morning again 0845am no one on reception I recall leaving the key card in a box. Easy access to and fro the hotel Clean but old room could do with a mini make over"

"Beautiful grounds. Room quiet, bed comfy. The staff were all friendly and helpful."

"Stayed at the Black Dog Inn in Bolton for two nights. The room itself was comfortable enough for the price, so no major complaints there. However, the overall experience was disappointing. The first night was a write-off in terms of sleep. Staff gave a late booking to a couple who had been drinking in the pub, and they stayed up most of the night with the TV on at a very high volume. There’s clearly little to no sound insulation, as it felt like the noise was coming from inside the room. Housekeeping was also lacking. Despite leaving a sign on the door requesting the room be cleaned, it wasn’t reset after the first night and towels weren’t changed. Small details were missed too, like no cups provided for the kettle and tea-making facilities. For the price, it’s not the worst place to stay, but the noise and lack of attention to basic service would put me off returning."

"Friendly atmosphere good service"

"Beautiful cottage which was perfect for visiting family in Chorley and Bolton. We stayed at the beginning of December and it was decorated for Christmas which was a wonderful surprise when we arrived. Vicky was very friendly and quick to respond to questions ahead of arrival, Will definitely look to stay again next time I’m visiting family. The EV charger was also really helpful to have available when staying."

"Lovely place to stay perfect base to get to places. Hosts helpful & welcoming would recommend highly. Well equipped cottage so have everything you need if you wanted to stay put, easy access from property to walks canals locks. Lots of helpful information supplied to suggest places to go places to eat, very happy to stay here again"
