There was a noise coming from the pipes next door all night as well as the fact that the walls are incredibly thin so was kept awake most of tie night. Wouldnā€™t recommend if you want a good nights sleep

Pleasant & convenient town centre hotel...
Pleasant hotel and good central location for Baskingstoke. Friendly staff and everything we needed for our short stay in town for work. Happy to recommend and would stay again when the occasion arises. Great to have free parking too!

Disliked: Amenities
Specifically called twice to request a walk in shower, before I booked and after, even upgraded the rooms to be told on arrival that the rooms did not have a walk in showers. Which meant my calls and upgrades were both pointless.

Adequate Hotel
Hotel was perfect for a one night stay. Free parking in the centre of town, with restaurants, pubs, theatre all in walking distance. The hotel was fine, our bathroom was clean and spacious with bath and shower, bedroom decor was nice with comfy bed, the carpet in room needed a clean but everything else was fine. We didnā€™t eat or drink in the hotel so canā€™t comment on that, would stay again for one night.

Great area. Lots of charity shops. Found great deals! Staff was helpful, but ringer in phone was off. Made my taxi. Lovely people. Clean around heated towel rack, especially the feet area and the Silver area next to the toilet it always needs to be wiped down and disinfected. Thank you for the heads up about the party you had. It ended at 11 PM like they said it would
