Lovely old hotel with beautiful rooms in a pretty area. Good cooked breakfasts but limited continental choice. Our room wasn't serviced despite asking twice for this to happen. Maybe staff shortage? Service needs a little more atrention to detail and more management supervision e.g. no orange juice avaliable one morning as it wasn't refilled, given a broken coffee cafetiere on both mornings, as the room wasn't serviced we had an unmade bed, full litter bins and had to ask for milk etc to.be replenised. Unwashed cups and the bottled water we asked for never appeared. At close on £200 a night and a 4 star rating I would have expected better. Would I stay there again? Yes I would as it is a lovely hotel but I would have been expecting compensation for tge shortcomings. Hopefully this wouldn't be an issue a second time

Lovely old coaching inn. Check in was friendly and we were shown to our room. Rooms recently refurbished with very plush furnishings. We had a superior double. Lovely little touches like bottles of water, tea, coffee, hot chocolate and biscuits, great toiletries, even a pillow spray. Didn't have breakfast so can't comment. Like that they have kept the tradition of the building with pictures of the historical person and a description. Would stay here again if visiting Godalming

Comfortable room with excellent shower

Friendly service with a comfortable room and coffee service. The bed was very comfortable with excellent on suit shower. On arrival the room was very cold, the heating should really be switched on. Breakfast was poor, a half of a small tomato and hard bacon that you couldn't cut.
