Pros:

Only here for one night, but will be back. Hotel is deep in the New Forest, but well worth the trek to get to it. Yes, you need transportation, but once there you can be as active for relaxed as you want. Perfect location for a walk in the Forest. We had a room overlooking the forest. Great view with wildlife walking by, very comfortable bed, lovely tea & coffee...New Forest shortbread was delicious. Very comfortable bed. Every was lovely from the check in to our departure and dinner on the Armada restaurant was as good, if not better than some Michelin star restaurants we visited. Great breakfast and then we departed...but we will be back.

Pros:

A real treat for us as we don't normally go for places like this. Wonderful building and an excellent 2 night stop-over on a week long tour. Everything you might expect from such a hotel and the thing we will remember most were the staff. It is clear that the training regime is first class and this showed throughout.

Pros:

Wonderful stay in a magnificent historic building with friendly staff, fantastic views and great food. Our room had a view of the forest where we saw deer & rabbits wandering by. We had great food, both casual and formal dining. The location is truly buried in the forest, peaceful and great for walking. A true sanctuary get away.

Pros:

Beautiful hotel in amazing settings. Our first stay here and we visit the New Forest every year. We won’t be staying anywhere else in the future. Lovely atmosphere, excellent food and wine, lovely gardens and the service was outstanding. Plus ev charger so we left with a full charge for the next leg of our journey!

Lovely stay
Pros:

We'd recommend a stay for a couple at Rhinefield. Superior room was lovely and well positioned with view in the woods. Service for breakfast was excellent. Service in the lounge could be more attentive especially when sitting outside.

Pros:

We have stayed at Rhinefield many times over the years it is a great hotel. Sadly there is recent evidence of cost cutting with a number of facilities including the indoor pool, hot tub, sauna and steam room all closed and without notifying guests who have already booked

Pros:

Had we have known there was a wedding we probably would have avoided the hotel, lots of guests and quite noisy during the day with the guests dominating most of the hotel areas and gardens. After listening to somebody snoring in the room for most of the night through what seemed to be a paper thin ceiling which was unfortunate coupled with a good breakfast albeit served relatively cold was disappointing. Was this room at almost £300 pounds for one night worth the value? absolutely no way.

Pros:

The choice of outdoor and indoor pools, a herd of deer on the way to your room, huge koi carp in all the fountained garden ponds, complete isolation and ancient twitter filled woodlands - the bare necessities of life have come to me!

Pros:

Fantastic setting, parking was easy and the hotel itself was beautiful. Warm welcome from the staff at check-in. The heated outdoor pool was great. However at times the casual restaurant/bar and breakfast felt slightly understaffed.
