“Busy but nice hotel”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 4 February 2012

The rooms were fine and clean, I was cold outside and there was luckily an electrical heater so that I could stay warm. The rest of the hotel was unfortunately very cold I staff in the reception was freezing their bu... of. The restaurant was very cold oth in the mornings and evenings.
The food was very nice in the restaurant. The breakfast was very good and cheap compared to some of the other hotels in the vicinity(10£).
I didn't have time to try the pool area so no comments.
You will need a cab or a car as this hotel isn't close to anything.

“good overnight stay”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 4 February 2012

Nicely positioned near motorways and shopping town (Fareham). and easy parking....very friendly reception staff and nice warm welcome. Reception area/bar spacious and inviting. Rooms comfortable as were beds (we overslept because curtains shut out all of the light). Nice view over pretty garden area.Definitely worth a short break here.

Room Tip: We had room 135 which overlooked the garden

“Home from Home”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 31 January 2012

Where shall I begin? After the lightning strike and subsequent refurbishment would seem appropriate. ALL staff, old hands (forgive me - I meant experienced staff members) and newbies alike, the trainees, and holiday temps are excellent examples of "Grace under Pressure". The new management team, will I am sure, soon progress to the Interconti's of the group, which is a pity but "life goes on". Food (I'm always off-menu") is perfect as is the bar (V. Bloody Mary's - made the old fashioned way - with Sherry). Gardens extensive and well maintained. Accommodation & interior design suprising for a "Three Star". Bedrooms brilliant and a shining example of how this franchise should be run.

Room Tip: I have never stayed in a "not good" room at this hotel. Regarding lift, the hotel is on g...

“Fantastic Stay”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 30 January 2012

I stayed for a week in mid January while attending a course at Warsash College. The hotel staff were extremely helpful during booking and even friendlier whilst there. I found the hotel very clean, comfortable and relaxing even while it was fully booked and very busy. I dined in the restaurant or the bar every night and the food was superb. I have to commend trustworthy cleaning staff that found, and left out for me, jewellery that I had misplaced. I had to travel every day to the college and the staff were very helpful at arranging a weeks taxi travels. The quality of customer service was fantastic and left a lasting impression....very refreshing after many a disappointing stay elsewhere. I would definately recommend this hotel and I will be sure to use it again

Room Tip: Can request smoking rooms which is uncommon these days
