Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Had an awesome time. The outlay of the premises along with the huge garden, courtyard and pool area is perfect for a getaway from the city. Quiet and peaceful with lovely birds and other wildlife in the area. My 3 kids throughly enjoyed themselves that they didn’t want to leave. Even the sleep you get there is different and peaceful. Wake up really refreshed

Hot, buggy, isolated
This was not the place for us. There was no air conditioning, very hot and uncomfortable, there were bugs, and there was no way to get anywhere, including food unless you had a car rental. We checked out after 1/4 of our planned stay, complained about the conditions, and the hotel did not show any customer service or recovery. Bad form.

A lovely weekend getaway
Our family went for a weekend stay incl my 2 baby girls. We were welcomed warmly and shown to our spacious clean suite. Breakfast was great and was served with a smile. The underfloor heating in the rooms and bathroom kept us warm as kings. The gardens were beautiful and safe for my daughters to play in. Very comfortable stay. There was no wifi in the rooms though.

Charmed in Chartwell
Lovely place! Every detail was taken into account. The maze is out of a 17th century novel. The pool is gorgeous and their roses are stunning.Rooms are clean and well appointed.The beds are very comfortable. Full breakfast, which is delicious, is included. I had to leave very early in the morning and the GM packaged a "to go" breakfast.Chartwell is simply guest house done right!

Ottimo rapporto qualità prezzo
Ancorché struttura non recentissima molto pulito e ordinato, sicuramente rapporto qualità prezzo ottimo. Il limite sono i dintorni, che sopratutto in serata non sono in linea con la struttura.
