The staff were friendly. Compliments to the chief, my evening meal was superb, restaurant staff were friendly. The room was very basic as was the furniture The bath had a lot of unsightly marks. There was rubish under the settee, and one of the sinks in the bathroom was dirty.

Convenient for Marwell Zoo and Resort but although bedroom and bed were large and comfortable there was a lack of thorough cleaning and the bed sheet was stained, We had to request a replacement, which was dealt with promptly. Hospitality tray had obviously not been moved to clean surrounding surface as stains and crumbs all around it. Bathroom door and floor need a thorough scrub.

Dated and falling apart
Hotel was very dated, falling apart. No fridge. The connecting room with family fridge decided to turn off. Only connecting room are upstairs (no lift not ideal with baby!). Decor is 70s, need a full refurb! Not worth staying unfortunately. The bed frame was broken and therefore mattress falling in on itself

A strange sort of venue - rare you come away thinking you had a good sleep but left feeling quite disappointed and ripped-off overall. Staff were friendly. Ordered a Guinness which was dreadful. Not the barman’s fault and so did not demand an alternative. Memo to management/owners, don’t allow hard working staff under you take the rap for your collective cutting of corners. Shower was weaker than a broken teabag and toilet flush was stiffer than very stiff things. The bed was very comfy and not much noise in corridors - perhaps because not many people stayed. Maybe for the reasons identified above. For more than 100 notes a night without breakfast, overall a big disappointment. Yes the bed is the most important factor in a hotel but this place really needs to up its game elsewhere.

Booked last minute as a stop over pre Portsmouth ferry. Very reasonable price and despite some reviews was a peaceful little sanctuary surrounded by woodlands Arriving late and leaving early, we didn’t get chance to use the leisure facilities, but would happily go again for a couple of night nights relaxing

Dated charm
It's a unique and quirky place to stay. Being in the woods make it almost feel like you are staying in a treehouse. We had an end room, which was a superior room. There was a door out onto a balcony of sorts, but no chairs and the balcony ran the length of the block, so if you were sat out there you felt you would be disturbing the other occupants. The place was clean, but attention to detail could be better. There was a hair grip left in our room with hairs still attached. Obviously missed by the cleaners. Carpets were stained but it's a hotel with a high turnover of families and young children, so keeping it clean must be a nightmare. The breakfast area in particular shows traces of the many many children who have spilled food there. It could do with new carpets, just a touch up as I feel it's not been redecorated in years. A little TLC would go a long way. But for all that, it has some 1980s charm which adds to the character of the place. We wanted to stay somewhere different and it certainly provided that. We would consider returning. But would definitely go out of season as I imagine it would be crawling with young families in summer months, all visiting the zoo.

Don't take any notice of negative reviews. If you want a modern type hotel, then you will have to pay more than the rates here. We found ALL the staff helpful and friendly. It was not on a noisy busy main road like most of the big chain hotels. I would pick this hotel instead of one of the National chain type.
