About The Towngate Inn
The Towngate Inn in Peterborough is a two-story, charity run hotel that provides a bit of seclusion without total isolation.
Generous sized en-suite rooms here feature all the basics you need for a comfortable stay like a TV, tea and coffee making facilities and free Wi-Fi.
While two stories tall, this hotel doesn’t feature a lift. If climbing stairs is an issue, you’ll want to request a first floor room. There is plenty of free parking though and a free continental breakfast basket is provided to guests.
Situated on the edge of the town Market Deeping, the centre of the town with shops and bars can be reached within ten-minutes by foot.
Towngate Inn is in a semi-rural location about 10-miles from Peterborough, however, there are a few restaurants and pubs within walking distance of the hotel if you’d like to explore the area.
Positive Reviews
positive:
Affordability Factor.
Many guests have remarked that, for the price, you can expect a good clean room and comfortable bed. Although it’s rather Spartan, meaning you’ll only find the ‘basics’ here, it’s perfect for people who simply need an affordable place to rest their head.
positive:
Tasty Breakfast Options.
Guests get a continental style ‘breakfast in a basket’, if they wish, which is included in the price of the room.
positive:
Parking Galore.
A guest doesn’t have to worry about finding a place to park since space here is more than ample. Likewise, since parking is free, you can avoid paying an exorbitant fee for your vehicle, unlike some properties that provide on-site parking.
Negative Reviews
negative:
Missing Maid Service.
Some guests mentioned having to wait, sometimes until the next day, for maid service. Perhaps it's important to note that you have everything you need upon check-in.
negative:
You’ll Get Exercise.
This property offers two stories. However, there is no elevator. That means you’ll want to request a first floor room if you’re elderly or you find climbing stairs difficult.
negative:
Bathrooms with Carpet?.
Guests commented that overall the rooms seem clean, but there is carpet in the bathrooms so some rooms appear old or smell of mildew.
