Check in was easy and the staff were amazing during my entire stay. I stayed in a single room, the room was surprisingly spacious and well laid out and had a decent sized bathroom. Couple of things to note: Room was on the third floor, there is no elevator. Not too much of a problem as the stairs are not steep or narrow. Room was in the”attic space” so being just over 5’ tall wasn’t too much of a problem, but anyone taller may find it a bit of a problem. Room had great skylights with really good black out blinds! Hotel is showing a little wear and tear, but considering the age of the building it’s nothing major. It has a lot of charm. Food was also really good, and reasonably priced. Reception area is very welcoming with a fire going the entire time (I visited in Jan!). It’s also a nice place to sit and read with a drink (bar is handy being right next door) Big bonus is the ease of getting around, it’s less than 5 mins from the train station and about a 5 min walk into the town. It’s also only a 35-40 min walk to Jane Austen’s house and Chawton House. Which is another bonus! Overall would 100% stay here again!

Really basic hotel. Phoned before arrival to ask for a refurbished room back by read some reviews and if the room I had was a refurbished one I’d hate to see one that wasn’t. Bed frayed and tired, bathroom dated, floor nearly worn through, black mould around the shower/bath and room needed a good clean - splatters on the bathroom door, dead flies clinging to the window frame. Definitely had better stays

Restaurant staff were lovely— so were reception staff. The parking was convenient and free. However, it was a long walk to my room, up three flights of stairs, with a heavy bag, and I am elderly. There was no lift. The room (in the attic) was cold and the warm air radiator set the alarm off when turned on! So, I had to turn it off. It was very cold.
