Unexpectedly stranded in Doncaster last night after train cancellations and I couldn't have chosen a better emergency stop. Staff couldn't have been more helpful and understanding both in the evening and morning. My room, although basic was so comfortable. I don't usually sleep well in my own in hotel rooms (even though I travel a lot alone), but I had a great night's sleep. Great water pressure on the very basic shower, and the towels are even big enough to get around a big girl like me! Thanks guys!!

Tired noisy hotel
This hotel has gone down hill, very tired looking now and in desperate need of updating and having money spent on it. We stayed in room 26 and we reported a loud buzzing noise on our way out to enjoy new years eve. On our return after being asleep for a short while the noise came back, then stopped then woke us up again several more times. I reported it to reception while checking out to be told " i will let the boss know" We certainly wont be going back to the Regent.

Disappointing stay this time.
Stayed a few times but this is the last. 02:25 and a loud buzzing which vibrated the wall of my room caused by next doors malfunctioning toilet which lasted till 04:10. Other residents came out of there room to locate the issue which also meant quite a few doors opening and shutting. You expect a decent night in an exe room but no. Reported to reception in the morning and they said they will look into it. Bar and staff are good but can’t comment on the food as always ate out. Car park is small but additional parking on road out front.

This place has been run by the same family since the 1930s. Even the Beatles stayed here. Very warm and friendly staff. Very small room (I chose a single, although the bed was full size and took up most of the space!!!!). Still, the breakfast in the hotel dining room was great -- as were the dinner options in the evening. My window overlooked Regent Square, a quiet peaceful little park bordered by some of Doncaster's nicest old homes. All in all, it was a wonderful, down-to-earth place to stay for a few nights.

Perfect for a city break
A warm welcome on arrival at this hotel which stands in pleasant surroundings just a short walk away from city centre. Room was very comfortable with a nice view over a leafy square. Didn't have breakfast so can't comment but otherwise cannot fault the service and would recommend The Regent for a short city break in Doncaster.

Easy to find, parking was shocking thankfully I have a small car but the staff were all very accommodating and friendly. Presumably its only a 3* as some things are out of date and bathroom could do with an upgrade, more sealant etc but it was all mostly clean and the shower worked well. It was quiet considering the location although it was a Tuesday night we stayed

Had an executive room which overlooked Regent park which was good. The room was clean enough and had the basic facilities, which was adequate for a one night stay. About 5 or 6 rooms share an enclosed entrance so I was awoken before 5am by a man taking his dog out, then back, then out again, then back again, each time allowing the door to slam shut behind him. (Why are some folks incapable of easing a fire door shut out of consideration for others?) I mean - dogs in hotel rooms? It’s an old building so maybe you can excuse the plumbing, but I still do not like to hear when someone flushes the loo or takes a shower (I’m talking about other rooms here, not mine) I arrived earlier than my check in time, and the friendly receptionist allowed me to park my car after leaving my registration on my check in card. This was a bonus as the car park is the size of a postage stamp and soon fills up. Breakfast is not included in the room rate so I didn’t partake and the hotel was in darkness after 10:45 pm, the only bar in use by no one being the small one near reception, so I cannot comment on the hotel facilities. In summary, it’s a decent enough hotel, it’s close to the centre near bars/ restaurants. Staff are friendly and my room was clean enough. Allowing dogs to stay in hotel rooms may be acceptable for some but not for me I’m afraid. I wouldn’t let my review put you off staying here, as it’s just that, my personal review, but an honest one. Unfortunately, I won’t be staying again.

It is an old hotel with the small room, clean, but there are two taps:cold water and hot water separately and it is impossible to mix up the water. Plus the shower holder was broken and fell in my friend. But we arrived late and left early so it was conviniet stop for a night.

Room with not a good view.
To Say we had an executive room was a little overstated. The room had a damp corner and heating was not on when we entered. Asked to be moved and the helpful girl on reception found us a better room. Hotel is very spread out and not a lot to look out onto apart from run down buildings. No breakfast served on new years day but the following day we had a lovely breakfast.

New Year Peaky Blinders themed night
On check in was told there was no breakfast served on New Years day! Which was a little disappointing. Room was standed needs a little up dating . There was no heating on in the room , however after reporing it to reception it was rectified . We attended the peaky blinders event . Have to say it was a very enjoyable evening . The buffet food was excelent . Well laid out lovely staff serving us . We were also given a complementary glass of bubbles to see new year in. Although we were given no breakfast , cant fault staff everyone was friendly & accommodating .
